WiFi 6 doesn't matter too much if your devices don't support WiFi 6, or you have slower speeds plans.

Replacing would be a better option but if you really want you could use the M4 as an AP but not sure how that will work out in terms of roaming, interference and compatability between the 2.

The main unit of Deco M4 must be connected to the Maxis router if you want to expand your coverage with mesh WiFi.

Mesh WiFI systems are not inter-operable between different brands.

100mbps unifi . Do you recommend me to get Tplink Mesh E4 or M4 better?

M4

Why M4?

The M4 uses a Gigabit port

if you choose E4, then your 100mbps speed will capped up to 94mbps only.

usually for 100mbps plan, unifi will open speeds up to 110-115mbps

Guys I got a question for ipv6 and deco. When I set my ipv6 to slaac and stateless dcph, along with obtain dns automatically, I do not get any ipv6

If I set my own ipv6 dns everything works

Can anybody tell me why this is? Or how I can overcome it ?

Hello there. I’ve been meaning to change my celcom fibre stock router which is a tplink ac1200.

Called their customer service and she said can change but need to ask the manufacturer like tplink if they support celcom fibre or not. So now i got two option

1. TPLINK Archer AX73 + RE605X (Modem > AX73 > RE605X)
2. Deco AX20 (Modem > Deco Main > Deco Slave)

Which one is better and do both support celcom fibre? Sorry for the long question but i dont know where to ask since not a lot of info about celcom fibre and even the CS cant help me

maybe a problem from the ISP itself?

I use a third party DNS

Does it only work with a custom dns ?


When I changed the dns to google ipv6 and v4 dns, the ipv6 address came up instantly. Why is this haha, am I doing something wrong ? Does tm not have an ipv6 dns? Am I supposed to input it myself ??


Edit again hahah: if I set the ipv4 to google dns, I am able to enable ipv6 and it obtains an ipv6 dns automatically

If ipv4 is set to auto dns ™, internet does not connect if ipv6 auto dns is enabled. So no internet at all, and no dns for both

Very weird


Is anyone here able to get an internet connection if both ipv4 and ipv6 are set to obtain dns automatically

if you use DNS from the ISP, it should not be a problem to activate ipv4 and ipv6. Yes, TM also has ipv6.

May I know, why do you still want to use the DNS provided by the ISP?

Hello! Actually I just wanted to test it out and see if it’s faster, but I am unable to use ipv6 if I set both ipv4 and ipv6 to obtain dns automatically

Sometimes ipv4 connects by itself with both set to automatic, but I will have no public ipv6 address and the ipv6 tests all fail

Hello! Have you found the reason for this and how to fix it? For me nothing seems to work on ipv6 unless I have a custom dns. Why should it be like this ?

Today TP-Link Tether App pop up Firmware update announcement, for malaysia local distributor official stock AX20(US) Ver:1.20 , but the firmware version, release date, build, change log, was for different version of hardware AX21(US) Ver:1.20, the firmware version, release date, change log, was the same from firmware release at TP-Link US website, but the Build version 16262 vs 12099 was different from firmware release at TP-Link US website.

UPDATE: the router local web pages 192.168.x receive this update too, with the same firmware version, release date, build, change log, as in TP-Link Tether App. those that have default setting Auto Update Enabled would probably getting the update, does it work? would it brick the router? not idea.

still using 1.2.0 Build 20201023 rel.69987(5553) firmware, while receive this, haven't manually update to Fixed the FragAttacks vulnerabilities. firmware that just released recently yet.

Note: You cannot downgrade to the previous firmware after you install this version of firmware.

Fragment and Forge vulnerabilities(FragAttacks) Statement

Security AdvisoryUpdated 05-18-2021 06:19:18 AM 537

This Article Applies to:
RE603X( V1 ) , RE605X( V1 ) , Archer AX20( V1 V1.20 ) , Archer AX10( V1 V1.20 ) , Archer AX1500( V1 V1.20 ) , Deco X68( V1 ) , Archer AX90( V1 ) , Deco X90( V1 )

For additional information, see: https://www.wi-fi.org/security-update-fragmentation

TP-Link is aware that researchers have disclosed a set of vulnerabilities about Wi-Fi named FragAttacks.

As soon as we became aware of the details, we immediately launched an investigation. As the investigation progresses, TP-Link will update this advisory with information about affected products.

According to the investigation, the following conditions are required to exploit the wireless vulnerability:

Someone knows your Wi-Fi password and connects to your Wi-Fi network
Someone needs to intercept communication between your router and devices on your Wi-Fi.
In order to achieve the purpose of obtaining private information, an attacker would need to trick a user on the network to visit the attacker's server (Phishing Email, malicious ads, etc.).
Workarounds

Set a strong Wi-Fi password and change it regularly. Being careful not to share your Wi-Fi password.
Periodically check the devices connected to your network. If you see any unknown device, block these devices and change your Wi-Fi password.
We recommend that you use HTTPS protocol to access the website. Don't click on emails from unknown recipients or visit suspicious websites.
Affected

TP-Link will update this advisory as new information emerges.

Isn't AX21 just a AX20 in an AX73 chassis?

sorf of, until there is open chassis mainboard photo for more confirmation.

Just use SLAAC + RDNSS.
Plus, I don't recommend you to use our ISPs DNS anyway.

I don't have good experience with TP-Link.

First, the legendary Archer C1200 random reboot that never get fixed. C1200 IPv6 takes 5 - 10 minutes to "propagate" to client devices.

Second, Archer A6 Ipv6 firewall doesn't work on latest firmware (Archer A6(US)_V2_201010) and beta (ArcherA6v2_us_tw_c6us-up-ver1-1-8-P1[20201110-rel52599]) as for today.
I got multiple port 445 login attempts for all of my devices from external IPv6 attackers. Don't get me started with other port attempts.
Reported the security issue to TP-Link multiple times = never resolved. Oh, seem like TP-Link already abandoned the support for A6 V2 since April 2021.

Third, Archer AX50 which supposedly marketed with WPA3 support, had the WPA3 feature rescinded (which is my main purpose in buying it), OneMESS support rescinded too and the router firmware support basically abandoned immediately after 4 months in the market. IPv6 seems to work flawlessly with proper IPv6 firewall. Disabling the Homecare (Malicious Content Filter) doesn't seem to disable it at all. It still send my DNS request to TrendMicro. Reported to TP-Link too. You guys know the "expected" outcome.

edit: Originally, since A6 IPv6 firewall will never get fixed, I bought AX50 for its WPA3 and OneMesh functionally to link A6 (extender) with A50 as primary router. Guess how that turned out.
