Wifi connected but no internet connection
When I connect my laptop to Wi-Fi using the default MAC address, it connects but shows "no internet connection." The internet connection only works when I use a random MAC address. I've reset the router twice, but this problem keeps recurring every 2-3 days. The issue occurs with the default MAC address on the 5GHz frequency, and the 2.4GHz frequency doesn't connect at all with the laptop's default MAC address. The router is using channel 1 (40MHz) for 2.4GHz and channel 128 (160MHz) for 5GHz, and the laptop's Wi-Fi card is an Intel AX201 160MHz.

I've fixed the issue by changing some wireless configuration settings. The problem was related to mixed security modes like WPA2+WPA3, but I've now set it to WPA3 only, which has resolved the issue.

Hello @Prince_kr
Thank you for posting on the TP-Link Community.
The issue you described sounds quite weird.
Does another device connect to the XX530v's Wi-Fi network fine? Will this laptop's Wi-Fi work fine when connecting to other wireless networks?
How about the LAN connection? Does it work fine on the XX530v?

@Prince_kr That is a very odd issue which you are facing, try updating to the latest version of the firmware once and try again. Update the Intel drivers aswell
Intel AX201 latest drivers: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/19351/intel-wireless-wi-fi-drivers-for-windows-10-and-windows-11.html
XX530v latest firmware: https://static.tp-link.com/upload/firmware/2025/202511/20251124/XX530vv1_0.8.0_3.0.0_UP_BOOT_agc3000(250902)_2025-09-02_11.41.46.rar (unzip and upload the .bin)
