RE650 Configuration page showing internet status as 'unknown' even though there is internet
Hello community,
So I am making this thread to address and shed the light on a very minimalistic issue, or bug, that I've been encountering with the RE650 Extender ever since I have purchased it over a year ago.
So as you may know, the RE650 has two modes: Range Extender and Access Point. Whenever I am using it as an Access Point, the main status section of the extender's configuration page always shows an exclamation mark next to the internet logo, and on the bottom there is written "Internet status: Unknown"
On the other hand, if I am using the RE650 as a Range Extender, it is not the case and everything is normal.
I have to mention that the RE650 has received so far 3 firmware updates, and I have used all 3 versions (currently on the latest build) but this issue still exists.
Maybe this small bug needs a patch? It's no big deal but I just thought of letting tplink know of it... Also if anyone has the same problem let me know!

I was a bit surprised not gonna lie when I learned that you need the V2 for onemesh support. I honestly can't confirm whether there are any hardware differences between the V1 and 2, but iirc I once saw tplink saying on a post somewhere in this forum that hardware changes exist, hence why V1 ‘cant’ get support. Would be great if someone can confirm this once and for all, but the big question is… are these hardware changes significant enough to make it impossible for the V1 to get onemesh?

Hello @Leburu
RE650 V2 supports onemesh, V1 does not, there is the discussion for RE650 V1 OneMesh feature request.
