Hi, Thank you very much for all the sharing.

The good news is that the new firmware 1.6.0 for Deco M5 would allow us to manually choose the signal source and it would be released very soon;"

 

What is your definition of very soon? You posted that on 2021-04-27. Today is 2021-07-06. This is stupid.

This is really odd, last week I updated the firmware and had the option to manually change the network layout, but I had a power cut yesterday and the Deco's reset to all using the main hub as source signal. So I looked for the option to change the source signal again but it's gone... Whats going on here?

I'm almost positive it was selectable from clicking on the Signal Source for the individual deco, but now I'm beginning to question myself!

Hello friends, I have the same problem as you, yesterday my network diagram seemed to be correct in a cascade connection, however I presented many problems of slowness in the satellite decos so the TPLINK support told me to delete the network and change it name and create another, I did that and the problem continues and today the network diagram without any explanation is different. I really don't know what else to do but my satellite decos are very slow.

 

Yesterday 

 

 

Today

 

 

The DECOS are still in the same physical location as from when I bought and installed them.

sad

 

 

I'm seriously thinking about buying a linksys velop

 

Regards,

 

César Vegas

@TP-Link I am on firmware version 1.5.3 Build 20210203. Even on this firmware, the signal source is not selectable.

I tried running the suggested "Network Optimization", it did something for a minute, but nothing changed.

 

The 3rd Deco doesn't have signal source as 2nd Deco which is relatively closer than the 1st Deco.

3rd Deco still says signal source as 1st deco, and has weaker signal.

 

Could you please provide an alternative?
