No word from them.

Before replying to your message I've checked for new firmware and nothing new, still version 1.0.0.

The product is stable and it's working under the constrains we know but, as I see it, for TP-Link, as it regards any kind of bug fixes, updates and/or upgrades, it's dead.

Model: Deco P9

Hardware Version:

Firmware Version:

Hi,

 

Is there any way to change the IP address range to be assigned to clients when in Router mode?

I'm getting a 192.168.68.1 DHCP range, but I have some existing equipments with fixed IP at 192.168.1.x range that I want to maintain as they are. but I can't So I need P9 to allow me to specify the IP allocation range.

 

How can I do it?

 

Thank you!

Hello all.

I have been given a beta firmware that addresses this issue.

 

I can confirm that the option is available (along with many other options)

As always with beta firmware, use at your own risk.

 

Link to beta firmware:

Deco P9 Beta Firmware

 

Hope this helps.

 

Unrelated topic.

Is anyone else struggling with WiFi speeds?

Max I'm getting is 120Mbps.

I agree, i am wishing the same thing! It's 2020, how can something so basic be missing from a "router"?! Sadly, i returned a different mesh setup and figured with all the great reviews, this surely did the basics well.

@Buzzard - Thanks for posting what version is the beta version.1.0.2 Build 20190917 Rel 71168

 

The fixed assignment of the 68 disabled my media server.  The system seems to be half-baked..

 

BTW - I have 3 P9's as I move from the main to the furthest my speed goes form 450 -> 385 -> 120

 

Since I purchased these M9's with powerline option, I can be sure that the backhaul is working - yet another future firmware update :-(

@CarlosGeadas Mine does show a firmware of 1.0.1 Build 20190731 Rek, 19372, but that is barely better than 1.0.0 and it still doesn't allow for changing the DCHP lease range. :(

@MgaLawin I've just checked in the app before answering your comment, my version is 1.0.0 Build 20190719 Rel. 14937. The fact that due to covid-19 the world is more or less in pause mode can contribute to a delay in new firmware releases but... I continue to think that TP-Link does not care for this particular model.

Hi

 

Really it's totally crazy this issue.

In my case I have some static IP on NAS &3d printer via octoprint and in this situation I don't know how to access them from outside via a ddns service I'm paying for it.

 

Really crazy at all

Hi The only thing to do is to advice people looking for a mesh product about the limitations of this one, so that people don't buy this thinking it will solve their problems, when it may not.

@Kevin_Z Why is this featuer available on some but not others?  Its is pretty standard feature on most routers.  I can make this chane on my M9.  It seems TP-Link really lacks in the firmware department.  Newer models do not ship with features older models have.
