Wifi security WPA2 AES and WPA3 are missing from Deco
Are you aware that upcoming (very soon) iOS 14 marks WPA/WPA2(TKIP) as "Weak Security" and refuses to connect to such networks by default?
iOS 14 is in Beta 8 state right now. It will be released to all iPhones/iPads in couple weeks.
Imagine what kind of feedback you will get in couple weeks when all iPhones/iPads will stop working with Deco??

@Kevy Go to router settings. Go to WiFi. Click on your network name and there is an option to turn on WPA3. Some of my devices did not with WPA3. So I use the guest network and left WPA3 off. Those devices now work fine.

@Alexandre. Ok, thanks for this information. But when I push the button 'Update Deco', it says my system is up to date, showing the old Firmware version 1.2.11. How can I update to this much newer version?

@hakort Ok I found it. My iPhone app didn't show there was a new update.
I had to install the Upgrade Tool first which installed the August update file from the site.
After that installation, the app told me there was a more recent September update.
Mission accomplished, security problem solved.
