I have not been informed about advanced notice of whether there will be new updates being released for EAP245 V3 by now and I cannot provide a definite answer. We recommend keeping an eye on our official website or forum.
Thanks for patience.

I see that finally a new firmware is available for the ER7212PC (v1.1.3), but still with the Omada SDN Controller v5.8.38, still no 5.9.x.
When is it planned to update to a newer controller version to be able to enjoy the EAP245 1.3.0 features ? (specially Lock to AP)

Hi @BoBsss
So far I don't have an exact date about the release of the firmware with newer built-in controller on ER7212PC. But we could expect that there might be newer controller on ER7212PC in next month. Please note that the upgrade is not guaranteed. Please key an eye on the official website or forum.

Regarding a date for a similar release for EAP 245 V3 customers it would be useful to know if TP-Link is even working on such an update.
Its all very well to ask us to keep checking the official website but that is a pointless exercise if TP-Link are not even planning to release any further firmware updates for the EAP245 V3 product.
Can you please determine if further firmware updates are planned for the EAP 245 V3 and then advise us accordingly? It's been over a year since the last V3 firmware update and I'm reluctant to keep checking for further updates if none are planned.
Thank you for your support and understanding.
