AX55 Ver 4.0 - Easy mesh option not available

AX55 Ver 4.0 - Easy mesh option not available
AX55 Ver 4.0 - Easy mesh option not available
Monday
Model: Archer AX55  
Hardware Version: V4
Firmware Version:

I own 3 tp-link AX55 routers. 

 

2 are Archer AX55 v1.0

The third one which I bought 3 weeks ago is v. 4.0 

 

Firmware version of v1.0 is

1.5.11 Build 20251119 rel.49503(5553)

 

Firmware version of v4.0 is 

1.1.3 Build 20251030 rel.63052(5553)

So both are fully updated to the latest version. 

 

v4.0 feels downgrade vs v1.0 - it lacks many options such as easymesh and eco mode. I don't see option to connect ot to other 2 AX55s with easymesh. I wonder why. I thought later (v4) version would at least provide same functionality as the previous version of the same AX55 routers

AX55 should support Easymesh from HW v1 and above.

Have you tried to use the WPS method and add it to your already existing mesh.

Hi thank you for the reply 

No it doesn't work. 

 

 

I wonder if I can manually flush latest v1 firmware if the hardware is same it should work no? I will also capture video showing how much less sophisticated v4 menu is compared to v1. V4 lacks many features on the current latest firmware. I wish I had bought v1 again but probably v1 is no longer manuf

It sounds very unusual to remove the Easymesh feature in a new HW version.

You won't be able to use a FW for HW v1 to update a different HW version. Most probably you'll get an error message during the update process.

Are you sure that AX55 v4 is in wireless router mode (check operation mode menu) ? You can post some screenshots here.
