When you put the model type: RE6, and you will see the model pop up. If you typed only RE you will not see the full list.

 

Revert to the previous firmware to see if your speeds are restored.

No not true, when I go to post in extenders I get ACXXX ADXX and Archer, None of the AC is AC2600 I think you should be more familiar with your own site and your site should be more user friendly. It looks to me like nobody wants to answer questions about this model, especially why the 2.4G is so slow in access point mode and what I can do about it. Rapidly losing trust for your products

Thank you for your feedback.

 

Please reference the story here which will familiarize yourself with our model naming protocols: https://community.tp-link.com/us/home/stories/detail/1594

 

In your original post, you mentioned the extender becoming all-around slow as a result of updating the firmware. Please factory reset the extender by holding the reset button for 15 seconds while it is powered on, and set up the device again. 

 

Make sure the extender is not named the same as your router or you will be doing a speed test to the router which would be further away rather than near the router. You can you the Tether app to change the extended Wi-Fi network so there is no confusion: https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/1373/
