I have auto updates turned on so the deco's will download the latest firmware automatically when available but somehow it didn't and was showing 1.7.0 as the lasted build, now successfully download the 1.7.1 build and manually updated each Deco, Thanks tor the heads up, I will keep a eye on the Deco support page for future upgrades instead.

@manni Where did you get the 1.7.1 firmware? I thought it was only up to 1.7.0 before it was pulled.

I upgraded my two M5's to 1.7.1 last week. Update went fine and everything is fine. They are with ethernet backhaul. New features are also good stuff, Eco Mode and isolating IoT devices from other local network.
My 5 year ole devices still rock! Thank you TP-Link.
