Model: Archer AX55  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.2.6 Build 20231130 rel.36135(4341)

 

Summary:

  • before the update, everything worked fine. Parental controls worked as expected
  • after the update; all parameters were reset to factory settings; after re-doing parental controls, none of the tracking features work anymore (online time, most used apps, top visited websites, block history)

 

Issue details:

I was sure my router was set to "do not auto update", because I had ZERO issues with the firmware out of the box.

Router, and parental controls worked perfectly...

 

Anyway, last week the router and tether App were behaving strangely (random disconnects)... so I rebooted the Router.

After restart, everything had been automatically reset to factory defaults, and I noticed the firmware had been updated to "1.2.6 Build 20231130 rel.36135(4341)"

So, I went ahead and re-configured all parameters, along with Parental controls (the profiles were deleted). no biggie.

 

However, now there are issues with my kids new parental control profiles (Tether app) - See image

  1. under 'online time' - there is a time displayed above the graph, but the graph below is empty. no data
  2. under 'most used apps' - no data
  3. under 'top visited websites' - no data
  4. under 'block history' - no data.

 

these sections were populated before the firmware updated.

 

Not sure if there's anything to be done on my end... or if i need to wait for a firmware update...

Can I maybe downgrade to an older Firmware version?

You should be able to revert back to Archer AX55(EU)_V1_1.2.3 Build 20230603 since there's no explicit notice stating you can't do that in the latest FW release notes.

There's another option - you can go beyond the latest version with this beta release.

If this was helpful click once on the arrow pointing upward. If this solves your issue, click once the star to mark it as a "Recommended Solution".

Well, that did it!

A firmware downgrade to the last posted version (AX55(CA)_V1_1.2.3 Build 20230603) solved the 'parental controls' issues I was having.

I now see a log of 'most visited websites etc...'.

 

I appreciate the help.

 

Thanks!!
