For some reason I cannot connect to any bands other than BAND3. Where I live BAND 20 should also be available for THREE and I have checked my phone on the same network and that is using BAND20 most of the time. If I try and force the router to BAND 20 only then it just says "disconnected". Only BAND 3 connects. Hss anyone else has this issue?

I have tried rolling back the firmware too and it now still won't connect to BAND 20. Only BAND 3....

I took screen shots and posted earlier to show I was on the latest beta firmware and I get aggregation without any issue. I must admit I did not try any of the other beta versions of the firmware on the Router. I only updated to the latest V1 EU official firmware and that was released in June 2021. Then I tried the combined issues beta and my aggregation works . When I manually select the bands its defaulted to Band 1 which I untick then tick 3 and 28 and aggregation is immediate. Switching back to Auto keeps it but sometimes I find it has swapped around ie I manually select band 3,28 and the next day it sometimes shows 28,3 but still aggregates. The only real issue I found was with one Mesh. Sometimes the One Mesh screen on the router shows no mesh network when infact the mesh is working but screen is showing its not .  Tether and the One Mesh extender shows all well .Disabling the One Mesh  either via tether or extender then recreating the mesh network from the start corrects the one mesh screen on the router. Looking at the size of the firmware updates compared to the full version I wonder whether these many updates do not completely over right previous update portions leaving bits behind causing the strange effects that customers are having. I have done

Hi All,

Since there are several beta versions for different issues on MR600(EU) V1, now we have made a new beta firmware to fix all the previous issues.

Here is the download link:

Archer_MR600(EU)_V1_220818

 

Modifications and Bug Fixes:

1. Fixed SMS related issue

2. Fixed the issue that Send button grayed out when replying USSD at second time

3. Fixed address reservation issue that the 10th item cannot be added

4. Fixed the issue that client device cannot download files bigger than 2GB

5. Added manual 4G band selection feature

6. Added OneMesh on/off switch

7. Add Ping feature as offline detection under 3G/4G Backup

 

It  is highly recommended to install this firmware on Archer MR600(EU) v1 in the first place and any feedback will be extremely appreciated. If everything goes well as expected, it is very likely this new firmware will be published as an official firmware later.

 

So after installing the new beta firmware, if any issue still exists, please feel free to comment below.

Thank you very much.

 

 

very little firmware changes.

As others have confirmed, seems like this beta is not connecting to 4g+...

What i believe is that it IS actually connecting to 4g+, but for some weird bug, it is not showing as such. Meaning, it is giving the modem the command that it isn't CAing (thus no 4g+ light, or 4g+ indication in settings), even though it is actually connected. Through various speedtests in the past, in my areas' bands, i would not get over 20mb in a single connection (meaning, no CA). Now, with this beta, i get 100mb+ speeds, again with the indication of no CA thus no 4g+. This definitely means that i get connected to two bands (CA) that is why I get such speeds.

Developers should be informed of that bug and correct it, even though it actually works as intended...

Probably you are right.

As I have written before, with the new beta firmware, neither 4G+, nor carrier aggregation is available to me, but now my internet connection is faster than that with the old beta firmware (download 100 Mbps, upload 45 Mbps).

I tried this beta again, and I think you are right @akatelka @ralphm24 

The UI says LTE, but the speed is like LTE+.

Since I upgraded to this latest firmware beta version, I am experiencing faster connection speeds but a lot of signal instability. Very rarely (and for only a few minutes) do I see an aggregation of bands (Advanced - Status). Also the 4G+ LED is almost always off, although the connection reaches LTE+ speeds.

My current setup is a manual selection of about 3 bands (B1, B3, B7). My mobile phone and modem have SIM cards from the same operator, so I can check signal quality/stability from different devices at the same time.

Precisely with regard to band selection I have a question: since where my Archer MR600 V1 is positioned my SIM operator hooks up in RAN sharing to another operator's antenna, which bands should I select? All those of this specific antenna? The question comes to me because this antenna has B1 B3 B7 B20 B38, whereas in my city my SIM operator nowhere uses B20 and B38.

Any update? Should be a quick fix?

@Sunshine @kernash me too waiting for the official firmware
