Model: VX420-G2h  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: unknown

Hello, 

 

Router model - VX420 - G2v

Hardware version/ firmware version is unknown 

 

I am experiencing issues with our home internet - we have only a handful of devices on our network which include mobile devices and laptops. When we utilise our laptop devices on network, speeds are great and no issues occur. When we use our mobile devices, internet is bad and we are left turning our wifi off and just using 4G. I will note that the mobile devices were able to use internet just fine on wifi for the first few months of having internet at home. It is like something has changed and now we are left with this issue. 

 

I highly doubt it is a device limiation issue with our router as there would be a total of 5 devices on network.

 

I was wondering if there were any other settings I could change on the router to prevent this from happening?

 

I have tried the following:

  • wifi off and on
  • forget network / re add 
  • connected to wifi and remained within arms reach of router 
  • restarted router 
  • iphones have newest software updates 

 

Any help would be appreciated!

We can certainly offer some troubleshooting tips that may help resolve your issue. Please consider the following:

  1. Contact your Internet service provider to confirm that the connection is stable.
  2. Log in to the web management interface of the modem, get a screenshot of DSL Status page, and save the system log.

Dear, tp_link. 

 

Model: VX420-G2v. 
version: 2.0

 

I am quite annoyed that to-link does not have the VX420-G2 AX5400 Modem Router on their website and do not state that it doesn't work with the tp-link website properly (that is required to make it work). Also unlike the VX420-G2h (in which they have listed as compatible with Aginet and decors) cannot mesh with anything due to it not working with Aginet or having a mesh option. The Aginet app cannot find it and the 192.168.1.1 website has only 7 tabs on the side and 2 on the top (basic and advanced). This is unlike older modem routers that have approximately 10 on the side and 3 on the top (basic, advanced and quick setup). This makes it impossible to get the VX420-G2 AX5400 Modem Router to connect to any decor or any other tp-link product.

 

Regards, @AnnoyedConsumer.
