Hello all, thanks very much for your patiently waiting and support.

 

Our developers recently have provided beta firmware for the Deco devices, which allows you to change the wireless security type for your Deco network, you can get the specific firmware for your Deco model in the below thread if you are willing to update it:

https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/227662

 

Note: Ensure you are running the latest Deco app on your phone first, Android version 2.2.1, and iOS 2.2.2.

 

Let the community know if you have any inquiries, thanks a lot~

@TP-Link_Deco 

Hi,

 

Can you also provide a link for Deco M4. Same issues applies for all Deco devices, not only for M9 and M5.

 

Br.

@TP-Link_Deco Thanks, tested and works fine. one thing: can we have an auto option? some old IoT devices don't know AES and are now disconnected from the network.

@LittleBro 

 

Hello, 

 

You may try to change the wireless security type back to the mixed WPA2-PSK and confirm if your IoT can connect back.

 

Just as we replied to our customers multiple times that there are some special devices may fail to connect to the fixed WPA2-AES security, and that's why we didn't allow you to manually select it before.

 

BTW, may I have the brand and model number of your smart IoT devices? Thanks.

@TP-Link_Deco Switched back and devices connected. they are actually WiFi Cameras http://vstarcam.com/VStarcam-C38S-1080p-IP-Camera-191.html

 

having an auto option, like I had on C9 before getting the Deco would be the best of both worlds

Thank you for the update but I switched in the meanwhile to UniF.

Hi @TP-Link_Deco 

When should we see a link with a security update patch/firmware for the S4 Deco?

(there's another similar thread for the S4 but it does not have the same visibility as this one)

Hope it is soon. Thanks.

@TP-Link_Deco 

thank you very much!!

its working very well on Deco M9 Plus V2.

Is it possible to add support to WPA3 as well to the device?

@TP-Link_Deco 

would like to request WPA2 AES and WPA3 for better Security. Apple now qualifies Network as weak and unsecure and recommends minimal WPA AES.
