Gaining access to Beta firmware (Archer C6)
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Hello,
how do I gain access to beta firmware for the Archer C6 v2.0? I can't find any download pages for beta firmware, only some links in this forums. I currently running "1.3.7 Build 20200723 rel.33309(4555)". Is this the current Beta version or is there a newer build?
Best Regards

Thanks for the response.
I initially updated from 1.2.1 to version 1.3.6 via the auto updater, but I started having noticeable ping spikes in my 5 GHz WLAN. So I checked the forum and found a link to the 1.3.7 beta firmware in this thread: https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/217350. After updating to 1.3.7 I didn't experience any spikes anymore, but had some other strange behavior like the 5GHz network being suddenly invisible/not detectable for all devices (while the green 5GHz LED on the device was still on). After restarting the device everything worked fine again. So I asked myself, whether there is a more current version.
I'm running my C6 as Access Point with DHCP disabled and auto channel selection for both 2,4 GHz and 5 GHz.

Hello, thanks for the detailed info.
If that is the case, please try to modify the 5GHz wireless channel first on the C6, then monitor again. We currently don't have a newer beta for the specific issue.
Nice day.
