Model: EAP620 HD  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.0.4

Hi All,

 

On the hardware V1 of the EAP620 HD, for the 5GHz wireless, the only options to select the channels are either Auto or the first 4 channels (36, 40, 44, 48).Why would that be the case and is there any work around 5GHz should give me many more channels to prevent channel congestion?

 

The 1.0.4 firmware is old now. Does anyone know the roadmap of firmware for the V1 hardware?

Only speaking from what I can gather from the forums, the latest update to the SDN (4.4.3) included support for 160mhz channels once hardware firmware is updated.

 

 

This would only be possible with DFS and on the EAP6xx range.   Looks like a firmware is due shortly to enable this

Thank you very much for your quick reply. Is there an ETA for the firmware release, by any chance? Much appreciated

Hey

 

I am not aware of a release date or any details in that respect.   The update to the SDN mentioning the 160mhz was the first announcement of anything like this from TP Link, people have been asking for it for a good while now

Just noticed Fae announced a beta for the 660 earlier today, details on this link below.   Other forum users reporting DFS channels

 

Looks like new firmware versions are coming
