Hi, brand new Archer AC1200. Several times, I've left the wifi range, and when i re-entered, my mobile devices (android phones) will not automatically reconnect. Further, when i manually try to reconnect (both 2.4 and 5gh), it tries, but fails to connect. This has happened with different mobile devices. However, the router continues to provide stable wireless and wired connections to devices that remain in range. When i restart the router, the devices will connect automatically. Anyone else with this problem?

Hi,
I have the same problem here since Friday with the same device. It used to work for a month or so and then it started to exhibit the same behavior as the OP, the only solution to reconnect a device is to reboot the wifi router.

Archer C1200(EU)_V1_170706

Hi

I have the same router for a few months and have similar problems with different mobile devices that disconnect and connect daily (2 Android mobile phones, and 2 laptops), on both 2.4 and 5 GHz bands. The only way to solve the problem is to reboot the router, but it works only for a few days.
A full reset to factory default make it work again for a longer time, but the problem happens again

I hope a new firmware will solve rapidly this problem. I'm disappointed with the stability of that router.

And please, protect the GUI access with HTTPS

Hello, a possible temporary solution. I was sent a beta firmware from the TpLink technical service; once installed, it is possible to downgrade the base firmware version. I copy the email and links in case someone is interested. I already did it downgrade, I will report on its operation. This is the email:

Good Morning,
We attach a link with an intermediate fimrware to update your router to this firmware, and thus be able to downgrade to the 160918 version.
Do not leave this firmware installed, install the 160918 and try to see if you still have problems with this version.
This is the solution we can offer at the moment.
Intermediate firmware: https://we.tl/gMktaZGeS6
Firmware 160918: [URL="http://static.tp-link.com/Archer%20C1200(EU)_V1_160918.zip"]http://static.tp-link.com/Archer%20C1200(EU)_V1_160918.zip
