Model: Deco X20  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.2.3 Build 20230906-41655

Hello!

 

I recently purchased a 3-pack X20 Mesh from TP-Link.

My old Mesh was a P9 which was too slow for fiber-internet up to 250 MBit - it only goes up to 130/150 MBit where the X20 reaches it's full 250 MBit on all 3 meshes.

 

I am used to seamless handovers of a WiFi connection if I move in the house between the ranges of the 3 meshes of my old P9.

There was never a time where it shortly changes to LTE to move to the next mesh.

 

With the X20 in fact IT IS losing WiFi connection between changing the meshes!

Firmware is up to date.

 

I have already set...

  • Fast Roaming ON
  • Beamforming ON
  • In fact I have set everything exactly like on my old P9 - even the meshes are placed on the same spaces.

 

Are there any known bugs - or even hidden tricks to get this working again?

 

Kind regards

StA

Hi, Nice to see you again.

I think the roaming protocol on Deco P9 is just the same as Deco X20 except Deco X20 is WiFi 6.

Will the mobile devices automatically reconnect to other Deco X20 after the disconnection?

May I know how long the disconnections usually last?

Wait for your reply and best regards.

Hello Its mostly iPhones. 13 and 14 models. All on iOS 17. Was working with P9 as mentioned. The time between a handover can go up to a minute, sometimes I have to disable and reenable Wifi on the phone too. I already delet d the Wifi on the phone and die a fresh connect with password. Didn‘t help. Kind regards StA
