Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.1.1 Build 20240227 rel.33191(4555)

Hi

 

I noticed there was a firmware update for my router today when I checked.

 

Before I updated, OFDMA+MU-MIMO was activated on my wireless settings.

 

Since the firmware update, it reverted to OFDMA only.

I can select the option for OFDMA+MU-MIMO but after saving the settings, it reverts back to OFDMA only.

 

I have tried rebooting the router and trying to select the option again, to no avail.

 

Is there a problem with MU-MIMO and its been temporarily disabled in the latest firmware update?

I'm asking because the only reason I went on the router settings is because twice now since I got the router, after about 20-30 days of uptime, all my 2.4ghz wifi devices disconnect (I had no problem for about 4 months after purchase, its been doing this the last 2 month). The 2.4ghz wifi network is showing full strength but when I try to connect it says unavailable/unable to connect. A reboot solves this but it happens again 20-30 days later.

 

P.s the WiFi issue was on the previous firmware version that come shipped with the router. I havent tried the WiFi on this new firmware version, however I'll have to wait 30 days or so to fully test it. Its just the MU-MIMO issue at the moment.

 

Many thanks

Just noticed on another thread about the firmware bug causing the MU-MIMO drop out.

 

However the 2.4ghz problem might still be a problem.

  @Marvin_S I just updated to 1.1.1 Build 20240409 rel.49203(5553) on a different TP-Link Product and looks like it wasn't patched. It still removed me out of MU-MIMO after updating the firmware. Thanks!
