Tags: #AX73
Model: Archer AX73  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.2.6

I don't know when it started but it seems my AX73 router just randomly started rebooting maybe multiple times a day.

I am already running the latest firmware and I dont recall updating recently.

 

I dont know what is triggering it. I have seen some forums where it could be caused by incompatibility with some range extenders and one mesh.
I already disabled Onemesh, and I am only using one RE700X that is connected by lan cable to the router, and acting as an access point rather than a wireless range extender.

 

I dont have any apple TV or homepod.

Hello @luffy-kun ,

Welcome to our community.

 

May I know if your network topology diagram is as follows:

ISP modem—AX73 )))((( RE700X

(Note: — stands for wired connection,)))((( stands for wireless connection )

 

Have you set Reboot Schedule on the router?  Go to Advanced > System > Reboot​​​​​​​. If it is enabled, please unclick it.

In addition, please remove the RE700X and test the AX73 separately.

If you have some clients with similar functionality to Homepod and apple TV, disconnect them from the router for comparison.

Best Regards.

Hi, yes I have both the AX73 and RE700X on scheduled reboot but only once week. The issue I am seeing is the AX73 is rebooting 1 to several times a day. The RE700X has been connected (via LAN cable) to my AX73 for a year now, and I only see this issue recently. I also noticed that the latest firmware 1.2.6 Build 20240619 rel.72016 is a new firmware that was released last Aug 15. Could this be an issue on this firmware version? I just rolled back my firmware to 1.2.4 Build 20240125 rel.39949 and so far the router has been stable. I can try to update again to this latest firmware and then disconnect the RE700X but want to know whats the reason for this and if this is worth doing? I need the 700X as an access point to get good coverage in my house.. Thank you

Hi@luffy-kun ,

Thanks for getting back to me with your detailed test results.

 

So far, the AX73 hasn't automatically rebooted again after you downgraded the firmware, right?
We haven't received any similar feedback, so we need to verify this further.

 

Please tell me what devices your clients use? If possible, please help us collect the backup file: How to create and restore from a backup file on your TP-Link Router

Then send it to support.forum@tp-link.com, attaching [Forum ID 839076] and details, and we will have a dedicated person to assist in analysis and follow-up.

Hi

I just want to update that even when running with downgraded firmware, it was only stable for 2-3 days, and the random reboots started happening again.

 

I only have laptops, TVs, some google cameras, Sonos speakers connected in my home, same devices I already had for a year.

 

I saw in an old forums that disabling DHCP on the RE700X can help. I just did that.  IF it still reboots, I will try to remove the RE700X from the network.

 

Thanks
