@Kevin_Z  Hi, I have a M5 x3 system. I have an indoor security camera tp-link (C200) in my Kitchen, it is connected to the main Deco device in the office which is on the other side of the house, rather then the slave in the same room. I have tried to reboot the camera but it still connects to the office that has a weaker signal. How can I make it connect to the one only five feet away? Thx

I really think they have to add this feature, also to choose the band they are using.

My deco's are connected to each other with 2.4Ghz, which is insane because they can connect with 5Ghz.

I have more speed by connecting to 5Ghz on first floor, while I'm next to a deco on the second floor.

That's because of the 2.4Ghz band. It reduces the speed too much.
I have a 1Gbps network but in my room (second floor) I can only hit 160mbps.
Also it seems there is a better connection to the third floor, also direct connect with Main deco and there its 200mbps, yep its 2.4Ghz speed :p

@mella 

Thank you for your feedback.

We already plan to add this feature to the firmware 1.6.0 of Deco and Deco M5 would be the first;

@TP-Link That would be awesome!
Do you know when it will be released?

Until now still don't have the latest version of firmware that can manually chose specific deco device right? So sad for their progress..

@Boriy 

From my past experience, something tells me, it won't happen in 2021......

@Boriy 

Hi, I think we could be more optimistic especially for Deco M5;

And Most of the Deco models have come to 1.5.x already;

Thank you.

@Kevin_Z  having similar issues where Deco X90 chooses the main Deco to connect to even though the signal strength is very low & there is a much closer X90 to connect to?   

 

Have you sorted out how to manually select the way Deco's connect?
