Model: Archer AX50  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.1.0 Build 20201013 rel.33896(5553)

Back in 2021, i was having issues with wifi which lead to me using a Beta version of the routers firmware to correct the issue. Since then, there have been newer versions of the firmware for the AX50 on the website which I have tried to upgrade with, but ultimately failed. I'm still stuck on 1.1.0 Build 20201013 rel.33896(5553) with the "TPLINK BETA" watermark on the web interface.

 

Every time I try to update the firmware I get the error 'unable to upgrade'.

 

I've tried troubleshooting tips from the tp link forums, but no luck.

 

 

Is there any way to force the firmware upgrade?

 

Any help would be appreciated.

I've tried the latest 3 releases on the product support page for the AX50:

ax50v1_intel-up-ver1-0-13-P1[20230906-rel40682]_sign.bin

ax50v1_intel-up-ver1-0-13-P1[20230907-rel67739]_sign_RC.bin

ax50v1_intel-up-ver1-0-14-P1[20240108-rel42655]_sign_2024-01-08_14.05.44.bin

 

My guess is the beta version is a 1.1.0 Build while all of these builds are 1.0.X?

Thanks! I've tried these troubleshooting tips so far: https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/2139/ https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/2571/ https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/2139/ As well as trying to factory reset. No luck with any of it.
