AX80 EU version - EasyMesh Wireless Backhaul doesn't work properly.
Hello, I bought 2days ago a new AX80v1 EU version for upgrading the WiFi coverage zone in my parents house.
I had 2x AX55v1 already so i wanted connect them both as satellites to AX80v1 as main router.
I notice very important issue.
When I try to add EasyMesh devices (2xAX55v1) to AX80v1 EU (main) via Wireless Backhaul mode.
The progress goes to 100% and fails to add the satellite device.
I try few times with couple factory resets and still same results.
To fix it: i had to Add EasyMesh devices via Ethernet backhaul.
When my 2xAX55v1 EasyMesh devices are added via Ethernet backhaul,
I unplug the Ethernet cables to check if Easymesh satellite devices (AX55v1) can connect via Wireless Backhaul to main router, but AX80v1 shows EasyMesh devices (AX55v1) is offline.
But AX55v1 satellites shows they connected to main router.
Also client devices connect with satellites (AX55) too. And AX80v1 show the connected clients on DHCP list.
The Tether app also does not show my 2xAX55v1 connected easymesh devices to the AX80v1 router.
Visible is only single device. Because of that i cant control easymesh satellites (AX55v1) devices via Tether app or AX80v1 webpage.
The lastes firmware on my devices:
AX80v1 EU firmware 1.1.4 Build 20241227 rel.62129
2xAX55v1 EU firmware 1.3.5. Build 20241211 re.34816
TP-LINK engineers team please fix it as soon as possible and add new firmware for the AX80v1 EU version with the latest features like for the AX55v1 router!
Example:
- CAC for EasyMesh
- Easymesh R2 Traffic Separation feature to support network traffic segmentation.
Implemented Easymesh R3 functionality including DPP (Device Provisioning Protocol) and encrypted communication.
- binding capabilities for satellites and clients under EasyMesh

Same issues with AX23, EU hardware version v1. Latest firmware 1.1.1 Build 20240822 Rel. 42048(4555) broke easymesh with wireless backhaul, works only with ethernet backhaul. I have two of that routers, easymesh was working perfectly for a year or so, since latest update I can't add sattelite, I tried via web interface, using tether app and WPS, always get an error. I did reset both routers multiple time, lost half a day trying to get it to work. Ethernet backhaul is not an option for me.
EDIT
Downgraded both routers to firmare V1_1.1.0 Build 20230725, everything works again as it should.

You can try adding devices via Ethernet backhaul, and when devices are added, you can disconnect the Ethernet cable and check if satellite devices are able to connect via wireless alone.
If the main router still shows them offline, you check if it shows an IP address for satellite devices and the client list connected to satellites. If that is visible, that means satellites are working. Only you can't manage them from a main router webpage and tether app.
Edit: For me, downgrading the firmware is not an option, and I keep waiting for a fix :)

I've tried that, the moment I disconnected ethernat calbe satellite goes offline with internet led blinking red, and some minutes after doesn't show on satellite list at all.

Hey Kevin, any updates?! About the new beta?
Because it's frustrating, I can't manage satellite devices from outside the local network.

Hello, Kevin,
Yeah, I got it, and I just installed and tested it on my second home network. For now works like a charm, but after a whole week, I will give full feedback. :)
By the way, how's going fixing the LED issue with the BE550v1 (EasyMesh Wireless) that I reported a while ago? ^^

How is your Archer AX80 (EU) V1 working now with the Beta firmware that support engineers sent you?
As I now have the main router Archer AX73 V2 in Building a EasyMesh Network via Ethernet Backhaul and a couple of pieces of Archer C80 V1 that work as satellites, my plan is to buy one piece of Archer AX80 (EU) V1 and set it to work as the main router, and place the Archer AX73 instead of one Archer C80 to work as a satellite.
So I'm wondering how your Archer AX80 (EU) is working now with the Beta firmware, and is everything fixed that you complained about?
Thanks.
