Early Access Archer BE800 New Firmware Added Support for EasyMesh in AP Mode, DoH&DoT, and 3-Band MLO Connection
@qazwsxedc16 That is why I said somewhere written, but ok I don't care 
@benoitm974 I've speedtest running every hour and I see always ups and downs, so it always depends on something, but I don't think it is firmware.
If kids are at home, I already see a change 
@mizwdev
It shows this.
I keep getting errors trying to update.
I see the new beta firmware in the UI but trying to update keeps giving me "Unable to connect to the cloud server. Please try again later."
I also tried uploading the firmware from this thread (no luck either), I'm getting "Upload error".
I have both BE800 (the main AP) and a "slave" unit BE550 (with wireless backhaul) paired with easymesh.
My home router is OPNSense and both the BE800 and BE550 are in AP mode (like was finally possible with version 1.1.99).
Note that I was able to update the BE550 from the BE800's interface, simply by clicking the update at the bottom there (the screenshot is post update):
Seems like I'm currently stuck on 1.1.99 on the BE800 though.
Also worth mentioning, there seem to be a mismatching information regarding the hardware version. The UI says v1.0 (and always did, even before I updated for the first time).
But the sticker on the back of the device says Ver: 1.6. Probably not related but worth mentioning.

Please restart (power off, wait for one minute, and then power on) the BE800 and ensure it's connecting to the internet properly, then try again to upgrade the firmware via the online upgrade.
If that still fails, please try manually upgrading the firmware by downloading the provided firmware here in my original post. Make sure you've unzipped the firmware file before uploading it into the router. Here is the guide for your reference: How to Upgrade the Firmware on the TP-Link Wi-Fi Routers (Case 1).
