IMPOSSIBILITY (AND NEED) TO CHANGE THE CHANNEL TO THE DECO X20
2023-08-26 14:46:14

I changed my equipment network to MESH technology with the TP-Link brand in its Deco X20 model
Everything worked perfectly until I changed my place of residence, in the same city
The internet service that I had (and have) of 1,000 Mbps in my previous home was totally homogeneous both by cable and by Wi-Fi
In the new house it happened that the speed fell (in Wi-Fi) to less than 500 Mbps and remains at 1,000 Mbps only by cable
My internet provider (ISP) detected that the failure was due to saturation of the channel assigned to me and proceeded to change me to one without much load
The ISP suggested that I assign the channel in the router so that the solution would be 100% effective and that's where "my headache" began.
The TP-Link Deco system has canceled the possibility of assigning a channel manually and although the Deco's have "state of the art" software (MESH) they are not capable of detecting the exposed problem and they remain in saturated channels and now my equipment that is (via wifi) connected to the Deco X20 works defectively for the work that I develop
I wrote to TP-Link (Mexico) and they replied that the DECO's do not have the option of manually changing the channel
Does anyone know or has been able to "jump" that limit so "disastrous" of the DECO's?

Hi, thank you very much for your time and patience.

I am afraid it is still not allowed to manually change the wireless channel on Deco. But you could try to run "Network Optimization" once to auto-fresh wireless channels again.

By the way, have you ever checked the commonly used 5 GHz channels nearby? Are most of them on band 1(channels 36-48)?

Do you still remember the model number of the old Wi-Fi router or the wireless specification? 

For Deco X20, its wireless specs are AX1800
5 GHz: 1201 Mbps (802.11ax)
2.4 GHz: 574 Mbps (802.11ax)

The expected 5 Ghz speed is between 600-800m/s. And if the 5Ghz client link speed is even lower than 1201m/s, 867m/s for example, the final 5Ghz internet speed would be reduced as well.>>How to check the associated/link speed on a wireless client

Thank you very much and best regards.
