Yeah i get how you feel, i've been following TP-Link's announcmenet about EasyMesh within it's 1st week of announcing in other threads for the C8 etc for over a year now, i own an AX73 V1, they gave EasyMesh for the AX73 V2, i even bought an AX55 half a year ago to get EasyMesh working to find out Ethernet Backhaul didn't work. Genuinely considering selling them all off for something like Asus.

  @Kevin_Z yep, my two Archer AX55s are being returned and moved over to Synology. Lots of other fun controls there that TP Link doesn't support beyond the mesh ethernet backhaul networking.

 Hi @Atsukio 

I am in the similar situation as you. I have one ax73 v1, one ax55 pro and one c64. I have not noticed any chance in TP-Link Easymesh supported devices list for long time, so I think if I wanted to use mesh via Ethernet backhaul I would have to sell all of my TP-Link devices and buy Asus devices. Asus works with Ethernet backhaul and I think Asus AI mesh works with guest network too. This is what Easymesh can not. I really consider to buy Asus. In the past I thought TP-Link is the best brand. Now I think I was stupid that I had not bought Asus.

Funnily enough i used to buy Asus, but they had issues back in their WiFi 4 or 3 days, where their firmware caused the router to restart periodically, thus why i swapped to Tenda, and saw TP-Link being a decent offering. Only to find out TP-Links' WiFi 6 isn't stable with 160mhz and AX mode (so i set it to AC at max) on for VR followed by this EasyMesh debacle.

Hi What is your issues with Asus ?

 

I just buy an AX55pro with the RE700X extender but on upstairs, i have only 200Mbs  very bad for an 3000Mbs repeater

I thinks to return all, to by the ASUS TUF-AX6000(For 2.5Gb ports ) and RP-AX58 

Best Regards

Back in the Asus N12HP router days, all their routers had a messed up firmware that pretty much stayed for months (not sure if it ever got fixed for those routers), where every few hours throughout the day, the router would choose to restart itself abruptly and there was nothing you could do about it. (Similar to the recent TP-Link AX55 drama which did the exact same thing, but took a couple of weeks or month+ to resolve, however 1 week in, i had already swapped out the AX55 from my main router (hoping the EasyMesh ethernet backhaul would come first before my AX73, and swapped the AX73 as my main router).

 

Though i was also considering the Asus TUF-AX6000 for my next router, as it seems to be more of the gold standard nowadays so im guessing those issues are now resolved. (And also potentially considering buying a 2 more Asus AX1800HP's for their AiMesh with ethernet backhaul)

  @Kevin_Z Good evening Kevin

hope you are doing well.

kevin I am a long term Tp link user, got about 15 routers till date. Have been a satisfied consumer till now but now I am in dilemma.

i dont want to whine but TP link hasn't been very clear regarding firmware updates nor about feature availability.

 

I am already using 1 C80 + 2 C6 via wired ethernet backhauled meshwork and I still need more to make my entire home a seamless wifi zone.

I wanted to get either AX10 or AX 23 which are available in my country, but sadly they do not have wired backhauling support. Non availability of wired backhaul is only reason I am not switching to Wifi 6 standard.

 

also being a creator of all the products, TP link could really make some changes and test possibility of incorporating Deco mesh into router easy mesh wired backhaul network. I would not hesitate to add 3 deco in my existing wired easymeshwork.

 

please keep us updated about which models are supposed to be updated in near future (ax models) so potential buyers like me can make a purchase in peace. 

hoping for a reply soon.

 

@DrNerd Please refer to my original post here in the link below, you will find AX10 already supports EasyMesh Ethernet Backhaul:

https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/593722

 

Just make sure you're on the latest firmware, and you will be able to build up a mesh network with Ethernet cables.

Hi  @Kevin_Z 

The AX73 in your post means v2 only?
Or are there plans to support Easymesh function for AX73 v1 in the future?

 

@Salyu  @LionSapporo  @Julio_Camargo  @Atsukio  @DAC808  @Gawej  @jhjm40  @Nyku 

 

Good news! 

 

I'm happy to inform you that Archer AX73 V1 also supports EasyMesh now. Please check and update your router firmware to the latest 1.3.5 Build 20230919 version as below:

https://www.tp-link.com/support/download/archer-ax73/v1/#Firmware

 

 

Please be aware that you'll not allowed to downgrade to the previous 1.2.6 official version once upgraded to this one since this version has significant modifications.
