Model: Archer AX20  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Hi All, I currently have an AX20 running as a router with several OneMesh devices (RE605X). All works well but for reasons that I won't go into I need to now switch the AX20 to AP mode. Will OneMesh still be an option in AP mode? Yes, I could try switching over and seeing what happens, but I don't want to risk upsetting a delicate setup.

 

Thanks

OneMesh won't work in AP mode - check this FAQ - Q8/A8.

Thanks :) Any idea if AP mode will ever support OneMesh? Obviously tp-link have their reasons for this however I'm struggling to see why AP mode shouldn't be able to work with OneMesh

In general the reason is that in AP mode many of the device features are unavailable - see this FAQ.

Only TP-Link can give you more details on that.
