Note: For MR600 v1/v2, Please note that not all combinations of the 4G bands are supported in 4G+ mode. Only when the router and the SIM card support the same combinations of 4G band in 4G+ mode, the bands might be aggregated successfully.
Besides the beta firmware, it is also planned to release the official firmware for Band selection. Keep an eye on the official website or router web GUI for the new updates.
If you are not sure about how to select the band manually on the router web interface, check the instructions below:

Manual Band selection build seems to work well. Any chance to get official firmware to get rid of "Confidential Only For Test"?

@CaPaRaL @kernash Hi, as long as you keep the product, the technical support is always at your service.
So if you have any issues with the current firmware /beta firmware, we would love to provide further assistance.
But if you want to know more details about the official firmware release plan, I am afraid we could not provide the information you need and all we can do is to forward the request to the engineers and keep them informed.

@David-TP your information is wrong.
I have a beta firmware since 2020, we are in 2022.
I'm a software developer and if I take 2 years to develop an official release of a software my boss fires me...
Your engineers need to start work a little more, or try to get a new one!!

How can I disable the "CONFIDENTIAL ONLY FOR TEST" background?
I'm using this beta since 2020 and you never release a final version (also no security update in the beta since 2020!) so I guess I have to live with that, but the background makes everything difficult to read.

This below is my original message from almost 1 year ago.
I have changed mobile internet provider and will get a stronger signal now.
But I still do not understand which firmware I should use:
• my current version (1.1.0 0.9.1 v0001.0 Build 201204 Rel.66940n) manual band choice
• upgrade online to v (1.2.0 0.9.1 v0001.0 Build 200511 Rel.44954n) Version my router wants to upgrade to
• on the support page a version called: Archer MR600(EU)_V1_210608 Only for France?
Please please - just fix this problem so that the product automatically updates to a version that works!
But first tell me which of the 3 versions above I should use.
---------------
I have a Archer MR600 V1 purchased in July 2021.
I wonder how to navigate which firmware version is considered new, BETA of one type or BETA of another type?
And which BETA has the manual band selection that works and is the absolute latest "temporary" solution?
A few weeks ago I noticed this band choice problem and spent (literally) hours reading about this issue here of this forum. (not what I had planned!)
So I then went through the real trouble of installing this my current version (1.1.0 0.9.1 v0001.0 Build 201204 Rel.66940n).
The text "Build 201204" is the date correct? So December 4, 2020? So 10 months ago? I used the Utility tool and installed it.
It gave me the choice to choose bands manually. But it seems unstable (I have to reboot alot) and has that "confidential" message written sideways on the web interface.
Not so professional.
NOW when I look at the web interface on my device (http://tplinkmodem.net/) it says I can upgrade online to v (1.2.0 0.9.1 v0001.0 Build 200511 Rel.44954n)
Now that date: "Build 200511" seems to be May 11, 2020? That is 16 months ago! So this is an earlier OFFICIAL upgrade I am offered to do from a later BETA and that most likely does not include the manual band choice? Please answer...
BUT on the support page (https://www.tp-link.com/se/support/download/archer-mr600/v1/#Firmware)I can see a version called: Archer MR600(EU)_V1_210608 and Published Date: 2021-06-10 So this is what? A newer BETA? This was published 3-4 months ago? Does it include Manual band choice?
