Solution Archer AX55 Pro v1 Fail to Establish Ethernet Backhaul using the 2.5G port in an Easymesh Network
This Article Applied to:
Archer AX55 Pro_V1.0_1.3.1 Build 20240426 rel.31941
Phenomenon Description:
Some users are experiencing issues with 2.5G Ethernet backhaul when using the Archer AX55 Pro v1 with other devices to set up an EasyMesh network.
Specifically, when you try to use the 2.5G port on the Archer AX55 Pro for Ethernet backhaul, the backhaul fails, and the devices are then connected to the Wi-Fi backhaul.
If you switch to another Ethernet port, such as the 1G port, you can successfully establish Ethernet backhaul.
Similar feedback is mentioned in this thread.
Workaround:
We recommend you try the following beta firmware to solve this problem.
Archer AX55 Pro_V1_1.3.1(beta)
Manually updating firmware can refer to How to Upgrade the Firmware on the TP-Link Wi-Fi Routers (New Logo)?
Note: Please be sure you have read the Terms and Conditions for TP-Link Beta Firmware before proceeding.
If you need further help, please describe the issue with more details and post it here.
Thank you.

@Joseph-TP Both routers are on newest firmware available, there are some client devices using a wired connection from the satellite router, so the topology is
ISP modem—AX55 Pro )))((( client devices
└───AX55 Pro )))((( client devices
└─── 2 client devices
the satelitte router is connected to the 2.5G port on the main router. They are connected via just a cable no switch in between.
That's how the topology looks like when disregarding wireless connection. The 2.5G port works fine on the main router.
[2.5G] ──┐ [2.5G]
ISP modem — [1G] └──[1G]
[1G] [1G] ── client device

Hello @PinkSteven ,
Thanks for getting back to us.
What if you connect wired clients to the 2.5G port of the satellite node? Can they access the network?
So, you have connected the main router's 2.5G port to the satellite node's 1G LAN port, or 1G WAN/LAN port?
If possible, you can also try switching the roles of the two routers to see if the 2.5G port is not working on a specific router or only when it is used as a Satellite node.
Thanks.
