Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: Firmware Version:‪1.6.0 0.9.1 v0001.0 Build 220105 Rel.58321n

Hi, for the past month or so my current tp link mr600 V2 router isn't picking up carrier aggression for 2 supported bands, it's only picking up just the 1 now. I've had and bought this router 2 years, 9 months ago, and it's always picked up 4g+ 2 bands since recently having problems. I only noticed by the symbols on front of router, 4g+ is off and not lit.

 

I went into the router page and can see it only says 4g on there and not the usual 4g+. Usually connects to bands 3 & 20 through 4g+, but only showing 1 band , which is band 3, on 4G. As there been recent changes or anything ?.

 

I've tested this exact SIM card into my Xiaomi 13 T Pro 5G compatible phone, and it picks up 5g on my phone, so it supports 4g+ and higher. So definitely not the SIM or my current provider.

 

I'm currently still on 1.6 firmware, because when I downloaded the 1.7 firmware update like 6 months ago, I was constantly having problems with it, like the 4g+ symbol was constantly flashing and going off and on every 2 seconds and the logs were erratic, so I had to downgrade back onto 1.6 firmware version and it's bk to normal, and been fine since up to now, with this current problem.

 

I can see now on firmware update page there's a new 1.8 firmware version for page router. I'm afraid to update it incase I have the same problems with 1.7 version. So if I tried updating to this 1.8 firmware, will this sort it or not.

Hi, thanks for posting question here.

It is suggested to upgrade firmware to latest according to the official website, then check again.

If 4G+ still does not work, please share who is your ISP.

If you have another SIM card, please try it on the router as well.

Hi, thanks for the reply.

 

Right I've just upgraded to the latest 1.8 firmware version, and still the same, it's not picking up 4g+ 2 bands. It's only been happening past month, before that was picking up 4g+ plus through router every time.

 

My current ISP is EE (UK). The router as been in same place all time not moved. I've got 100% signal strength which says on the router page. Like I said before, I took the EE SIM out if mr600 V2 router and until my 5G phone, and it picks up 5G signal on that, so the SIM supports 4g+ speeds. So it's not the SIM or EE provider.

 

I have another basic SIM (Vodafone) but that doesn't support 4g+ in my area. The EE one dies and it's the best and strongest signal in my area also for speeds.

Thanks I'll try that. I've tested both bands separately over the weekend, both are picking up separately if I choose one manually. The 20 one I connects at a lower speed, and the 3 one much stronger and quicker. Its either they recently changed something on.my nearest mast I'm connected, or on a different one. I still getting great speeds on the 3 band, similar to when both bands are combined on PC. But it's not somehow connecting both bands together.
