@TP-Link_Deco 

I'm following the steps to update the firmware for my 3 pack M9's. Unfortunately I fail to login in the downloaded Update Assistant. For some reason it does not recognize my TP-Link ID or password. I tried to reset, both via the App and on tplinkcloud.com but no result. I am on Windows 10, cable connection to the M9 device, and don't have a different computer to try from. 
 

Thanks.

Hi,

 

Is there any special software or VPN running on Windows 10? If yes, you need to turn that off first, then run the Upgrade Tool again. Below are some suggestions you may refer to:

Thanks.

A Virtual box network adapter was the culprit on my W10 PC.

Before upgrade:

Model: Deco M9 Plus

Hardware Version: V2

Firmware Version: 1.2.11 build 20190926 Rel. 55727

 

Just tried to upgrade to 1.4.2 with the upgrade tool on my Windows 10 device, didn't work, after the scan the upgrade tool disappears and nothing happens.

Tried the upgrade tool in compatibility mode ( Windows 8 ) and this worked just fine, and i could upgrade to 1.4.2

 

After upgrade:

Model: Deco M9 Plus

Hardware Version: V2

Firmware Version: 1.4.2 Build 20200725 Rel. 65637

 

------

 

Next day, upgrade to Firmware Version: 1.4.3 Build 20200917 Rel. 56749

same upgrade tool, download and unzip files in the next link, then upgrade with the upgrade tool

Now you can set WPA2-PSK [AES] at the WIFI settings.

 

The only thing I am still missing is the possibility to change the WIFI channels, hope to see this in the next upgrade.

In busy city areas chancing the WIFI channels yourself would be a greatly appreciated option, by choosing a free or less crowded channel you will get better overall performance.

 

So far I am quite pleased with my Deco M9 Plus V2

@Erik_NL You say you are on 1.4.3 using the upgrade tool. I have read in this very thread TP-link mentioning that it will not be necessary to use the upgrade tool after first time. I am on 1.4.2 and I am not getting 1.4.3 offered via the app. So are we stuck with the upgrade tool (and all the issues) for keeping our M9+ firmware updated??

I also didn't get the 1.4.3. with the update on my IPad with the app,  So i used the Windows 10 device with the upgrade tool , this just worked fine for me.

If we are stuck with the upgrade tool i don't know, i am just a ( happy? ) user cheeky.

I have tried it on servel PC windows 1809, 1909 en the latest version and it doesn't work.

 

Why hasn't this problem been fixed yet with a proper upgrade tool or an upgrade via the App?

@Jay_B 

Root cause is the presence of some kind of VM product on your PC.  Hyper-V, VMWare, Virtualbox etc.  If you can uninstall it and reinstall after you do the tp link firmware upgrade.
