Model: Archer C1200  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.3.6 Build 20200902

Hi all,

 

Welcome message as this is my first post. I have a monitoring system done for my network using UPnP to gather some info from the router. It was working perfectly fine until the last upgrade of firmware - from this point it looks like there is nothing ongoing from the device.

 

I saw one topic regarding a similar issue - beta firmware helped there. Is there a solution to my problem?

 

Thank you!

A way to test if the UPnP is working is to go to:

 

And see if there are any active clients in the UPnP Client List.

Is your device Archer C6 v2 ?

You can check that on the bottom sticker.

What kind of monitoring system are you using with UPnP ?

I am using integration in open-source software called Home Assistant. Before the update it was gathering some data like bandwidth, is the WAN online and stuff like this but now mostly it's not getting anything. Version of the router is V2.

Hi, I am using UPnP/IGD integration of Home Assistant (Opensource software) which was working perfectly before the updates.

 

https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/upnp/

 

After that, it is mostly sending nothing. Version is for sure V2 - I got V1 before and it was handing a lot so had to upgrade.

I was asking aboute the model and HW version of your router.

Judging by the FW version and date, you probably have Archer C6 v2.

If I got this right, depending on the FW region (EU or US) you can check for the FW update here.

The other option is to contact tech support and ask them to help you downgrade the FW to the previous version, which was working.

Before doing any of these actions I would try to re-add/reconfigure the devices in Home Assistant (even manually) to see if I can resolve the issue without chnaing the device's FW.
