Hi All

 

I have set up my network using a mesh system with the following devices:

  • Satellite devices: RE550, RE650, and AX73
  • Main router: AXE75

 

The devices are connected via the mesh satellite system. However, I am unable to find the details of the IoT SSID. My main router has 2(2.4,5GHz) SSIDs configured, including one specifically for IoT devices.

  1. Should the IoT SSID from the main router (AXE75) be visible and accessible through the mesh satellite devices (RE550, RE650, AX73)? Currently only showing the Main SSID
  2. If yes, how can I recheck or troubleshoot to ensure the IoT SSID is being broadcasted correctly across the mesh network?

 

Any guidance or steps to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.

 

 

Additional Details :

  • Firmware versions of all devices: All Latest

    • RE450 : 1.0.20

    • AXE75 : 1.2.2

    • AX73 : 1.3.6

    • RE650 : 1.0.5

Looking forward to your help!

Hi@mk-,

Currently, the TP-Link EasyMesh only supports extending 2.4G & 5G. And most 6G-Supported WiFi 7 Routers also support extending 6G network. However, MLO/IoT/Guest Wi-Fi can't be extended in an EasyMesh network.

Hi Joseph

 

Thanks for the update, Technically when in mesh all SSID in main network should be broadcast by the satellite or should providde option to select apart from main network what and all to be broadcasted unfortunately the my IOT from main router are accessible only within the main router range :-(
