  @ChrisBS Hi, I have no issues with the Wi-Fi; the bridge is connected via LAN.

Hey, do you use Smart Connect or every band separately?

 

If separately try switching security in 2,4GHz band from WPA3 to WPA2+WPA3 or just WPA2. And check if your device works again.

  @Kevin_Z The Tado Internet Bridge has always been powered using the USB cable and the adapter provided by Tado.

As I mentioned earlier, I am currently using a different router on my home network because, after updating my BE550, the Tado Internet Bridge no longer connects when plugged into any LAN port. I have not changed any configuration; I only updated to version 1.1.1.

Thank you.

  @DizCronz I am the same issue since updating to version 1.1.1. Previously, my Tado Internet Bridge was working perfectly, but now it no longer works.

I also tried a full reset of the BE550, but I couldn’t resolve the problem.

At the moment, I am forced to use another router to control my heating system.

How can we resolve this situation? THANK YOU.

 

@centouno 

 

Could you please confirm how you powered up the Tado Internet Bridge before and after updating the BE550 firmware? From the installation guide, it seems it can be powered up through a USB cable or via the provided adapter or any regular 5V USB power adapter. @DizCronz  @Yannick_S Could you please also confirm? Thank you.

 

Please also check Ethernet connection status of this Tado Internet Bridge on the BE550's web page and show me a screenshot:

 

 

@centouno We've brought this issue up to the development team and hope they will figure it out as soon as possible.

 

Can you please help check the Ethernet connection status when the Tado Internet Bridge is connected to the BE550's LAN as I asked previously? Thank you.

Hey. I back from Holiday and do some testing of new firmware.

 

Unfortunetly after firmware upgrade, USB Storage its bugged even more :) This things what happen now blow my mind LOL ^^

 

1. I lose permission to already created folders and files inside them (i cant delete them, cant rename) also i cant send new files inside these folders on connected disk. Only is possible open them or copy them.

(to fix it i had to copy all data to other device, create a new folder on USB Storage and send it back)

WARRINING! Its there more extra bug. When I send back files, and copy whole folder with files inside to USB STORAGE DISK . USB STORAGE save only empty folder with 0kb files inside it. So I need copy just files one by one.... 

Also when I try send files even to new created folder or other localization,  pop up the information  "files already existed" LOL

To save it I have to click "rewrite it" other wise will be 0kb.

 

2. I can't make new folder or send files direct on USB storage disk when i unselect any folder/subfolders  from File-sharing. Only possible is make a new folder/sub-folder or send files when you enter to showed folder. 

 

3. File sharing after refreshing always showing all fodlers as unselected even if they were selected and saved.

4. Problem with speed with BE550 in AP easymesh mode connect to main router BE800 by WLAN.

I cant reach 2Gb's Internet speed, i notice i reach speed around +/- 100MB's down/upload.

Same upload/down from USB storage connected to device.

BE550 satellite easymesh WLAN - link speed connection with main router BE800 shows 4Gb's speed via 6Gh'z band. So speed should go near 2Gb's without problems. 

 

Of course same connected disk to main BE800 or BE550 in AP easymesh mode Ethernet backhoul work normal.

 

 

@ChrisBS Thank you very much for your thorough testing of the USB Sharing feature with the new firmware. Please continue discussing these issues directly with the engineers via email, they will analyze them further with the development team and provide a solution.

I attempted to upgrade my BE550 to this firmware remotely while I am overseas. I used the Tether app on my iPhone to select the BE550, and went through the steps to download and upgrade the firmware. Everything seemed to have worked OK, but the device did not come back online. It now shows up in the Tether app as "offline", and I cannot ping my public static IP address any more.

 

Since I am away from home, is there anything I can do now to access the device remotely? Should I ask a friend to go to my home and reboot the device, will that help?

 

Any advice on this situation is appreciated.

 

@SiliconLunch It may take some time to connect back to the internet after the firmware update.

 

Are you connecting to the BE550 via a VPN connection when you upgrade the firmware?

 

I upgraded by accessing the BE550 via the Tether app while overseas. After clicking "upgrade", I saw progress messages on the Tether app that the new firmware was being downloaded, it downloaded 100% OK, and the update had been started. It just never came back online again, even after waiting about 12 hours.

 

I had to get a friend to go to my place and investigate. The BE550 was not bricked, but it was showing the exclamation sign on the front panel (!). My friend was able to log into the admin UI via 192.168.1.1. The problem was that after the firmware upgrade, the BE550 did not reconnect to my ISP automatically via the PPPoE settings & configuration. The BE550 was operating OK, with the new firmware, but just not connected to the Internet. When my friend logged in locally and clicked "Connect" on the Internet page, the BE550 connected to the internet via PPPoE as configured, and the device came back online.

 

Suggest your team may want to check the firmware upgrade logic and always ensure that after a firmware update, even if it is being done remotely via Tether, the BE550 always reconnects to the Internet as per the PPPoE configuration. It's especially important if the update is attempted remotely for this to work, otherwise, users could lose access to the internet for long periods of time before they can physically access the device again. For example, I have several of these routers in different countries and it would be a huge problem if I updated the firmware remotely and they failed to come back online, as is the case that happened this time.

 

Thank you.

@SiliconLunch Thank you very much for your detailed description. I understand the situation now.

 

Can I also know who is your internet provider? Generally speaking, after the firmware upgrade, the router will automatically connect back. I will feedback on the case to the development team and request them to review the logic.

Hola.

Mis equipos están conectados a través de cable ethernet.

Con el antiguo firmware estaba funcionando todo a través de easymesh, replicaba tanto la red principal como la IOT.

Desconozco si era un fallo.

Actualmente he tenido que configurar los tres equipos de otra manera y reprogramar los dispositivos con wifi diferentes.

Saludos
