I'm not in any way related to the company "TP-Link" - I'm just another end user - so my posts are not "official".

BUT if you visit the Polish support section:

https://www.tp-link.com/pl/support/download/archer-ax55/v1/#Firmware

and try to download the official Polish firmware images - you will get standard EU versions (pretty outdated - but never the less).

I have tried to binary compare various unzipped firmware images from TW/EU/CA and they are all identical. This means you should be able to use the 1.3.3 pre-release since it does not differ from the EU version nor the CA or TW versions.

I hope this helps and please inform us about the Satellite client issue mentioned above (Master AP cannot see Satellite clients when running in Ethernet Backhaul mode)

Thanks

@AdiP79  Nailed it !!!

Nice discovery,

Thanks

Dear Marvin, thank you for spending hours on firmware that brings new issues instead of solving existing ones. I bought Archer AX55 Pro a month ago hoping to get powerful hardware with latest tested features including more reserved IP's than Archer VR2100 I had in that days.

Yes, my wish related to more reserved IPs was fulfilled but since installation I'm thinking if I'd spent my money good way.

Internet connection via GPON so RJ45 but I was not able to make it working when set dynamic IP address for internet as it is defined by provider. After hours of fails I gave up and set static IP by the same values as gived by DHCP. Miracle happened, internet started working. I tried once or more times to switch to dynamic IP as required by provider but internet got lost until I changed back to static IP. Horrible. It was smoothly working using Archer VR2100.

Old Archer VR2100 also allows to save syslog to remote server based on filled IP and details. Very useful, saved to my Synology all logs to can check in one place what happened. I haven't found this option for Archer AX55 Pro in router's web administration, nor in Tether app. Why it was removed? Was it soooo boring or complicating to keep it? The same for security log. Is there something that must not be analysed outside Archer?

And another weird difference - old Archer allows to import own certificate that will be used for remote access to router. I haven't found this option for Archer AX55 Pro that's why appears warning about missing certificate - annoying, especially when I have certificate but have no way how to punch it into Archer AX55 Pro. And the cherry on top of the cake is that I cannot uncheck HTTPS protocol to be used for remote access, it's mandatory to be allowed. If Franz Kafka would live, he will be flapping and laughing how good students in tp-link he has.

Facing these annoying details is inconsistency in rules for naming connected DHCP clients between Tether app and web administration quite not surprising.

Yes, I bought Archer AX55 Pro also due Tether app as I was missing such easy going remote access to my home LAN when I'm far away. Childish, I agree. If I'd count also nearly one year promised and never fulfilled correction of firmware of tapo cams, maybe this is the right time to request money back from seller, learn to make working linux replacements like pi-hole @ rpi5 and say goodbye! to tp-link.

Have a nice day.

I have experienced something like that (DHCP for WAN port) - but on a standard AX55 (not identical with your Pro version).

I fixed it by keying in DNS server (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 if you are a fan of google ;-) . I could not key in DNS servers for the WAN connection in DHCP mode, so I turned ON the internal DHCP server (for WiFi clients) and put in valid DNS servers there, saved the setting and afterwards turned my DHCP server back to "Auto" and my WAN connection into the ISP provider required DHCP mode - this way valid DNS servers showed up there and will be used by the AX55 to ping various known URLs and hence showing "good" internet Icon.

I have to be honest here. I have not re-checked this problem on later firmwares and I'm not sure you can compare firmware for AX55 with AX55 Pro - but you could give it a shot - it did work for me. Also my AX55's are not directly connected to any ISP since they are behind a hardware firewall taking care of protecting the entire network and acting as DHCP server for all clients - so my AX55 are all in access point mode.

Btw. Saving syslog to local server or or e-mailing can be done in the AX55 via WEB GUI "Advanced | System | Syslog" - OK I had to zoom out to 90% for the relevant buttons to appear - don't know why that scroll-bar was missing :-)
