TP link archer AX55 update (newest one)
I have updated my router from the previous version to this new version as it says alot of things have been fixed, then realised this new version for the Archer AX55 resets the router back to factory settings and you have to setup the router as if it came out of the box, not a great start, but also with the new firmware version I am getting 150mbps, but the package I pay for is 1000mbps, my speed test isnt reaching this atall.
The version my router was on was build:
1.4.1 Build 20250821 rel.70686
And this worked a treat with the speed and was getting 800+ on speed.
Can anyone from tp link reach out to me with the old version of firmware for this router as it worked fine before or a new update that allows my speed how it was back to normal, now the new update has decreased my network speed entirely, I cant even play a game of warzone without it lagging 😅 getting each game od 550ms of ping 🤮
Or is there a setting I'm missing and thats why its not back to its original speed.

@DanishSweets90 I hope you have better luck than me. My AX55 auto updated to this firmware a few months ago and it's never worked properly since. I find it odd that this release is still not listed as the latest version on the website and if you Google it, it comes up saying the firmware is for a totally different router.
I've also got a couple of range extenders which also updated to a firmware version not showing on the product download page.
Ever since, connectivity is constantly dropping out albeit briefly before coming back again but I run a home assistant server with all my smart lights etc connected and run on automations and they don't like the connection keep droping out and end up just staying offline until I power cycle them which is becoming blimming frustrating.
I did get in touch with TP Link customer service at the time who in fairness did their best to help me but after a load of back and forth and getting nowhere I just gave up.
So will be keeping an eye on here for a solution 😊

Ive been given a new update, which was TP LINK beta version, the WiFi drops out at 1-2am which is irritating,
But apart from that the speed is still slow for download and upload. They need to give me a solid file, but yes for the moment im running a .zip which is beta version so theyre testing I tvj m to see if this is good version for the archer AX55.
Thats my update for now, how's yours getting on?

Just a little heads up for you AX55 users, some models have or are about to go EoL this year, see the link below
https://static.tp-link.com/upload/manual/2025/202509/20250910/EOL%20List_Home%20Networking%20-%20V6.0.pdf
The absence of the ability to download the latest FW has put me right off the product now and when mine go EoL that's me and TP done as I have one that isn't 4 years old yet that went EoL at the end of 2024, AX20 V3 EU, my other one had a OTA update in August 2025 but the latest FW available to download is from April 2025 it's almost February 2026 now, I've asked time and again and the reason for no FW file is always skirted round or ignored, not good enough imo.
For maintaining a router always once you have configured it to your liking save a config file backup, then when you have to factory reset you're only a couple of minutes away tpo full restoration of your config.
