I have bought both NX200 and then the NX600.

When connecting it to a externall antenna i could figure out why like so many other people did have any signal increase.



After spending two weeks with TP link support it turns out that the NX200 and NX600 only partially support external antennas.


They both have 8 internal antennas and when switching on external antennas in the webgui https://www.tp-link.com/en/support/faq/4330/

When switching on that function it only disable two off the internal antennas, leaving 6 internal antennas still in use and let onces external antenna use two.

The 6 antennas still in use are for lowband and only 4g, and let the external antenna handle 5g bandwith.

Here the downside

people that use external antennas uselly do it because they have bad reception without.

Now since this is so messed up and one uses the option prefered 5G the NX200 and NX600 is switching between good reception(ext) and bad reception(int) all the time.

Now i have noumerous times told TP link support that we need to switch off all internal antennas when we choose and switch on that option in the webgui so we dont get that back and forward with good and bad reception.
That would easy solve everyone that have the same problem, and many people even here on support forum have that exact same issue

I am not sure if it is a bot that answers at TP Link support because everytime i tell them the problem i get a nonerelated question back.

They defentlly arent helping with this major fault when it could be easylly fixed with a FW update that turns off all internall antennas insteed of just two and let the external antenna handle everything

Even telling me some bands arent supported when they clearly are.
