Hi TP-Link Team and Community,

I am writing to request a critical feature update for the Archer BE230 regarding its MLO (Multi-Link Operation) implementation.

Current Setup: I am currently using multiple Archer BE230 units in an EasyMesh configuration to cover my home. My client devices support Wi-Fi 7.

The Issue: Currently, when I enable the "MLO Network" feature on the main router, it functions as a standalone SSID that is broadcasted only by the main unit. The MLO network does not propagate to the satellite units within the EasyMesh topology.

As a result:

1. When I move to a room covered by a satellite unit, my device loses the MLO connection.

2. The satellite units do not seem to utilize the MLO capabilities for backhaul or fronthaul, limiting the potential of Wi-Fi 7 in a mesh environment.

The Request: Please release a firmware update that fully integrates the MLO Network into the EasyMesh protocol.

• The MLO SSID should be broadcasted by all satellite nodes.

• Devices should be able to roam seamlessly on the MLO network between the main router and satellites.

Without this feature, the benefit of Wi-Fi 7 (MLO) is restricted to the physical area of the main router, defeating the purpose of having a Wi-Fi 7 Mesh system.

Thank you for your support, and I hope to see this implemented in upcoming firmware updates.
