u/mips13

Just wondering, it's quite a small install.

Somebody was looking for this but they seem to have deleted their post.

Is there a way to disable the 5Ghz wifi (phy1-ap0) if the lan4 port cable is disconnected and then reenable it if the link is back up? A 10sec delay might be useful too.
So in effect the status of lan4 is a toggle for phy1-ap0.

SOLVED!

Earlier today I formatted my ssd to reinstall win10 and arch. I installed win10 first which worked fine. I then installed arch with /boot & / partitions. After this I lost the win10 bios entries and cannot boot win10, so I started scratching around in arch and I cannot find the initramfs image files yet arch boots just fine? Using systemd-boot btw.

[mips@obelix boot]$ ls -R

Trying to compile router firmware but not having much luck.

Is there an international HQ I can escalate a hardware fault to?

Logged a fault with the local representative on 24 April 2026 and it feels like I'm getting nowhere.

Experiencing major packet loss which results in basically unusable internet.

If I run a pingplotter trace to the local gateway 192.168.0.1 or any address after that I have packet loss. The routers web interface at times also locks up and when I can access it I get an error.

If I move the LAN cable from the router and connect it directly to the fiber ONT there is no packet loss and this is using the same ethernet cable and PC.

Here's a pingplotter screenshot to the routers LAN address,

Here is the very same LAN cable disconnected from the router and plugged directly into the fiber ONT,

TP-Link EX511 v2.0, Firmware Version: 0.4.0 3.0.0 v607e.0 Build 231108 Rel.5398n

I'm just really frustrated at this point, is there anyone from TP-Link that can assist?
