@TP-Link I have tried to reboot both the Decos and the treadmill. That doesnt help. Yes the problem started after updating to 1.6. My treadmill is a Nordic Track T12.2 with an iFit WiFi module.

@TP-Link Deco app doesn't list my wired clients connected to switch under main deco m5 (it listed before upgrading)

TP-Link wrote
3. Added support for customizing clients connection preference under Deco App > CLIENTS > Select the client > Click the gear icon on the right-up corner > Connection Preference.

This feature doesn't apply to guest network clients?

Hi, Thanks for the feedback.

All the wired devices connected to the switch did not show up on the devices list, right?

If you connect one of the wired clients to the main Deco directly, would it show up on the APP?

As for the guest network issue, you are right and the connection preference is only available on the main network.

Yes. My NAS disappeared in devices list after upgrading to 1.6.0

I didn't try this before, but while using older firmwares, it always displays in devices list

Thanks for the feedback.

I’d like to follow up on your case by email and could you please help me confirm the following details:

1. Except for the wired clients behind the switch, how about the mobile devices, and Did they show up on the device list?

2. What is the model number of the switch?

3. Except for the NAS, are there any other wired clients?

@votinh8x

Hi, I would like to follow up on your case by email, and please have a check of your email box later.

And Did you set up a static IP address on the NAS?

If yes, would you mind temporarily changing it back to dynamic IP and check whether it appeared on the list or not?

Thank you very much.

@TP-Link After setting dynamic IP address, it's comeback, then I set static IP address again, it's still there. Problem solved.
