Deco M4 select signal source
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I got 3 deco M4 device, 1 as main (AP mode) and slave 1 and slave 2.
Main deco and slave 1 are located at ground floor while slave 2 is located at floor 1.
Main deco is located under the stair so the signal strength is weak a bit, but the speedtest done when client device connect to slave 1 still good.
Problem here is slave 2 connect to main deco instead of slave 1 when slave 1 have greater signal strength compare to main deco.
I saw another post Deco M5 source signal selectable? got release beta firmware for M5 model.
May i know when will m4 beta firmware release? or does it have any other temporary solution?

Also, I've always been unable to log into the M4R's web interface, with both tplinkdeco.net and the LAN IP. I'm currently running the latest public M4Rv2 firmware.
Edit: Found a solution for this; contrary to the FAQ, https:// should be prefixed instead of http://.

Hi, the issue you have now is that the satellite Deco M4 did not connect to the closest Deco?
If yes, you could try to install the beta firmware in the message box;
And there are some notes for the installation:
Please unzip the file after download it.
Please go to the Deco APP's home page and tap the Internet icon. Then please tap the farthest Deco unit which is not connected to the correct unit. You can get this unit's IP address on the detail info page. Please write this IP address down.
Please connect your PC to the deco network and open a browser. On the browser's domain address bar, please enter the IP address you just got on Deco APP and enter it. You will access the management page of the specific unit.
Please go to Advanced -> system -> update firmware to install the beta firmware using the .bin file zipped in the folder.

@TP-Link I installed the Beta and worked fine, today I received a firmware update and again the satellite Deco M4 is connecting to the main Deco.
I tried to install again the Beta but I get an error because is not the latest firmware. The firmware I have in the Decos is 15.0 Build 20210511 Rel. 34580.
Do you gonna to release another Beta to solved this issue?
