Another small glitch in the beta firmware...
Logging in through Tether is problematic, the app does not always recognize the password, although it is correct.
For example, I've just been locked out for two hours as the app failed to recognize the password ten times in a row.
EDIT Finally got it, if you want to log in to Tether now, you have to use the local password. Until now, you were required to use your TP-Link ID password. This change takes a bit getting used to.

@lphoenixl I guess you cannot install the previous beta firmware from the latest 1.3.0 official version nor can you downgrade to the previous official version. I will check with the engineers again if we can provide an updated version for you.

Hello, I wanted to buy an AX55 and I need ovpn client for my game console I want to know that, is it going to support ovpn client???
As far as I can confirm, Archer AX55 does have a plan to support the VPN Client feature, you may keep an eye on your router web GUI or Tether app for the updates. You can also subscribe to this thread, I will update my original post once there is a new model added to the supported list, you will get a notification once it is updated.
