Model: TL-WPA8631P KIT  
Hardware Version: V4
Firmware Version: 4.0.2 Build 20230817 Rel.58509

Hi Folks,

 

I have an Archer AX73 v2.0 (Firmware Version: 1.1.0 Build 20240323 rel.70541(4555) )  connected to a TL-WPA8631P Powerline Adapter (Hardware and Firmware versions attached to thread.) in a mesh network. Everything works fine, but in my Tether app (Version 4.7.14 - latest version I believe) the menu item is displayed as OneMesh, when I think it should be displayed as EasyMesh. Before I had my Archer AX73, I had a Archer AX72 Pro connected to the same powerline adapter and I believe the app displayed EasyMesh, and this meant that from the main Network page, I could see the adapter in the same network as the router, tap on it, and see the clients that were connected to it. I could also see the adapter listed as a Satelite Device on the My Devices page. This is not the case with my AX73, the adapter only appears under the OneMesh tab, and I have to go into advanced settings to see which clients are connected to it. If possible, I would like to set the app up where I can see the adapter from the main network page - it's not a deal breaker or anything but it would be nice. I have checked the EasyMesh supported device pages and both of my devices are listed as supported. I would also like to point out that the menu items are displayed as EasyMesh on the web browser pages that manage the router and adapter via their IP addresses.

 

Any help to get this fixed would be greatly appreciated, if anymore details or clarification is needed, please just reach out.

Got a similar problem when connecting my RE220 to my Archer AX21 router. Updated the firmware version with supported Easymesh function for both devices and it seems to be working but on the Tether app there is only a menu item for OneMesh. It says the RE220 is part of a OneMesh network while the web browser only has EasyMesh listed with the RE220 as a satellite device. Is the app just incorrectly displaying it as OneMesh or do I have to configure an additional setting to use the two devices as EasyMesh?

Dear @Sunshine

 

I also have the same problem with Archer AX73 V2.0 on firmware 1.1.0 Build 20240323 rel.70541(4555).

 

I have Archer AX73 as Main Router and three Archer C80s working in Satellite Mode and it all works fine over LAN network where all three Archer C80s are connected with LAN cables to EasyMesh network.

 

When I access Archer AX73 via mobile application Teather then only OneMesh network is shown, while EasyMesh network is not visible and not displayed at all.

Also in Teather application OneMesh can be turned off and disabled, but it has no significance for EasyMesh network operation and all satellite devices continue to work normally...

 

Is a new firmware expected that will fix this, and also is there any indication that Archer AX73 V2.0 will also get WireGuard VPN function with that new future firmware upgrade?

 

Thanks!

TRUST NO ONE, THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE!
