Deco M9 Plus v2 firmware not possible to update and are missing features compared to v1
I have v2 and the DECO app reports that I have 1.2.10 Build 20190809 54285
On the webpage https://www.tp-link.com/de/support/download/deco-m9-plus/#Firmware however there is a newer 1.2.11 20190926 55727
Why does the DECO report that I have the latest firmware and why cant I upgrade to 1.2.11?
On the other hand what Im really asking for is to get the same features as HW v1 got.
You have release 1.3.0 with lots of new features and it was built in August and Released in October. Why dont we get that for revision v2?
All these things was release on Ocotber for revision v2
Modifications and Bug Fixes:
1. Added support for IPTV bridge mode and custom mode.
2. Added IPv6 firewall rules feature.
3. Added Mesh Technology option.
4. Displayed which client is connected to which deco and which Wi-Fi band.
5. Displayed how Decos are connected to each other.
6. Supported up to 64 entries each for Address Reservation and Port Forwarding.
7. Improved the system stability and fixed some bugs.
Notes:
1. Please update your Deco App to the latest version in order to use new features.
2. If there are other Deco models in your Deco network, you may miss some new features till other models release updates in the near future.

@Robert_M I had the X60 and X20 3 packs pre-ordered for myself and a p9 3 pack system on order for a friend and after reading all the posts here I immediately cancelled all the orders. I cannot risk spending over a thousand dollars only to be disappointed as many others have. I can't express how grateful I am that you all shared your experiences for others to be advised. I will instead be putting my money into a company that values rapid and fluid innovation and listens to their customers.

*start of rant* question below @Kevin_Z
I just bought the M9+ and must say I'm extremly dissapointed in the software, it can not even do basic settings a 20 euro router can.
I cannot recommend anyone who knows what an IP adress is to buy this.
Feels more like i got ripped off from an AliExpress seller, but the reality is this is an actual TPLINK product of 130 euros a piece.
I'm kicking myself I didn't better research this product as I'm extremly dissatisfied.
*end of rant*
on to my question
I was able to get the webui working with the firmware in #149 but with a dodgy app to 'upgrade' to a BETA firmware.. which still only offers very basic functionalities.
I've found no way online to find updates to this BETA firmware? Only the links posted by third parties on this forum?
Does anyone know an official source/webpage to find updates to the BETA program?

@avniel I have not purchased any deco system yet. I had purchased for myself and a friend but found this forum too late. I cancelled the orders. Judging from the issues here I can't risk buying from this company. Also I assumed this was an American company which it is not, which raises a lot of trust issues for me.

@avniel I may go ahead and purchase 3 of these systems to test them thoroughly and write in depth reviews on my findings. Being an Amazon Vine reviewer, it would have been nice if they could have sent me a few systems like this to review... But I may purchase the X20, X60 and P9, test them out and return if needed. Either way there will be thorough reviews on each system I try.
