OSX Catalina and MR600 connectivity issues
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Hello all- Love the MR600- a major step up in reliability from the old EE altatel router it replaced. Connectivity with PCs and other devices is fine, however I have a couple of Mac OSX catalina devices which have intermittent connectivity issues with the mr600 and sometimes crash the router forcing a reboot. These devices have been tested on other networks with no issues ( I know there were upgrade issues when catalina was first released but fine on other networks) I'm running the latest version of firmware on all devices, can anyone help?
hello,
thank you very much for your time and patience.
For your case, please refer to the following suggestions:
- Except for the Mac Catalina system, how about other Apple devices, are they working with the MR600?
- Did they lose internet connection on both wireless and wired Ethernet connection?
- How to recover the internet when Catalina devices lost the internet, reboot the MR600, or it would come back automatically?
There are several suggestions that you could have a try：
- change the wireless settings for 2.4ghz: channel 11, channel width 20mhz; for 5ghz, channel 48/165, channel width 40mhz；
- update the firmware to be the latest one: Archer MR600(EU)_V1_200511
