M5 1.3.0 Beta Build 20190529 36613 NOT 70702!!

To those that updated via the DECO App to 1.3.0 before it was taken out,
there is a NEWER 1.3.0 which is Build 20190529 36613 which i received via email from TP Link Support (credit to TP link, they ARE listening to our complaints)
http://support.tp-link.com/f/bffa2478b4/?dl=1
the 70702 still had lots of problems, though it didnt drop connects as often as 1.2.8
1) Bad Throughput - can only get 20mb next to a deco? WIRED/Wireless backhaul
2) Authentication failures
3) Poor handoffs
Is anyone else on 36613 ?
at least my deco test speed hit back 900+mb (70702 only had me 700 down, 100 up)
inital testing - the handoffs are faster and throughput at slave nodes are back to normal (getting 400+ on iphone XR and Note 9)
yet to see about the authentication failures
EDIT : 3 DAYS OF USING THIS FIRMWARE AND ITS THE CLOSEST TO PERFECTION. THANK YOU TPLINK

The web interface can be reached at: https://tplinkdeco.net/webpages/index.html
You can also try the ip-adress of the main unit: https://192.168.0.1 or the ip-adresses of the slave-units.
The main-unit web interface has all the info and options and you can upgrade the firmware of the main unit
The web interface of the slave units can only be used for uograding the firmware of that slave unit.
The web interface worked on the 1.3.0 rel. 70702 firmware, but is disabled on the 1.3.0 36613 firmware.
Let’s hope TP-Link will enable it again in the next stable release. I liked it a lot!
