Ooooh looks like TP-Link AX73 v1 is getting EasyMesh function real soon, they released the firmware for EU version already.

Hello Sifu's,

When you change to a new router, is there anything that should be tweaked in the advanced settings to improve the router? e.g. OFDMA, airtime fairness, DHCP server address lease time set to max, etc.

I can't really find a proper guide online.

Hey guys, have you ever encountered this issue with TP-Link router before? I'm using TP-Link AX73 v1. This occurred few days ago, then all is fine for few days, then appeared in log again in the morning.



I googled and it seems to commonly happen on TP-Link routers?

I don't have any LAN connected devices, everything is through wireless. So I guess the only thing I can do is changing 'Internet Port Negotiation Speed Setting' from Auto to 1000Mbps Full Duplex. I don't see anything regarding flow control in the TP-Link configuration.

Da heck another thing appeared in my AX73's log, something to do with USB, padahal I've never plugged anything in to the router's USB port before.



I've also disabled the media sharing function. This thing has occured multiple times lol.

Question guys, does it matter if I pick channel 149 or 161 if I am using 80mhz? If I use either it will still center at 155 (149-153-157-161) correct?

Thanks sifu Blacktubi, I'll stay with my channel 161 then.

Btw, I couldn't find the Malaysian version but to confirm are we somewhat following the US version like this?

5GHz Channels

So lower (36-40-44-48) and upper (149-153-157-161) channels are allowed to broadcast 1,000mW Tx power, whereas all DFS channels are only allowed a quarter at 250mW Tx power? This is the main reason I'm not using DFS.

Does anyone know what I can possibly do to resolve an issue where my phone loses connection with my router and even if it reconnects, it will say 'device connected but no access to network'. It happens time to time, and will then reconnect sucessfully again later on.

I have done things like set security to 'WPA2-PSK', and also use device MAC rather than setting it as random. Firmwares are also at latest.

Router: TP-Link AX73
Phone: Poco F3

Could DHCP Lan settings be a cause for it? The only thing I changed is set lease time to 2880 minutes, others are left at default.

Edit: Turned off WiFi Scan Throttling in Android developer options didn't really help either. Sad, most probably related to the phone/software somehow, can't find an answer.

Hi guys, is there any side effects if I disable IPv6? Is it okay if I just use IPv4 for now? Will be setting in router configuration.

blacktubi Boss, if you don't mind me asking since you are well versed with TP-Link products. Do you turn on IPv6 on your routers? I'm currently testing disabling IPv6 on my AX73 and so far it actually seems somewhat better by just being on IPv4 alone.
