Model: Archer BE230  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: Firmware Version: 1.1.3 Build 20241211 rel.47943(5553)

Issue:
Currently, many TP-Link routers separate VoIP and internet traffic, preventing devices connected via WiFi from accessing VoIP services like Zoiper, Linphone, and other SIP-based apps. This limitation makes it difficult to use VoIP on mobile and desktop devices without additional configuration workarounds.


 

Requested Feature:
We request an option in the firmware to combine VoIP and internet traffic, allowing all connected devices (wired and wireless) to use VoIP services seamlessly. This could be achieved by:

 

  1. Disabling VLAN separation for VoIP and Internet – Allowing both to function on the same network.
  2. Enhanced SIP ALG support – Ensuring SIP traffic is handled correctly to avoid NAT issues.
  3. Better firewall & QoS settings for VoIP – Allowing users to prioritize VoIP traffic while ensuring internet connectivity remains stable.
  4. Simplified Port Forwarding for VoIP Services – Making it easier to configure SIP/RTP ports for VoIP apps.

 

Why It’s Important:

  • Many users rely on VoIP services for work and personal communication.
  • Without this feature, users are forced to use complex VLAN setups, external VoIP gateways, or secondary routers.
  • Competing brands already offer better VoIP integration, making TP-Link less attractive for users needing VoIP support.

Proposed Solution:

  • Add a toggle in the admin panel to combine VoIP and Internet traffic instead of keeping them separate.
  • Improve SIP ALG handling or provide a clear option to enable/disable it per user preference.

Would love to hear from TP-Link engineers and the community on this! Anyone else facing this issue?
