Hi, I would like to forward your case to the senior engineers. please check whether you could get an email from us later.
By the way, do you still remember the original firmware version of Deco M5 before updating to 1.7.0？
Thank you very much.
Best regards.

@TP-Link The M4s (except V4) haven't even received the 1.6. update yet, and M5 gets 1.7?
This is a whole new level of "We don't give a f*** about other Deco models, except M5/M9 plus/X50/X55" lol

I have a question in regard to IoT network:
I can configure preferred signal source for a client device on Main network.
I can't configure preferred signal source for a client device on Guest network.
What about IoT network?

Hi, I am quite upset about the news as well and I am always reluctant to give a response to future plans since it is full of uncertainty. But it is frequently asked around the community. Normally we would say "might" or "plan to be". We knew it actually did not guarantee anything but we need to avoid making an empty promise.
On the brighter side, the engineers haven't said no to VPN features and there might still be a way to get over the flash limitation.
ConcernedUser, Hi, nice to see you again. As for "when", it might not be the answer you want but there hasn't been updated news about the ETA. So far, it is still in the planning and the software engineers would have their own priorities. Deco S4 hasn't been marked as EOL and it is still under support.
Thank you very much.
Best regards.

@TP-Link @David-TP Can I ask when the Deco S4 will be receiving 1.6? I've been waiting an age, and it's been so long the M5 now has 1.7 while the S4 sits without a single update.
I know you have previously mentioned it was in the works, and I know some users on here have managed to make small modifications to existing firmware to get 1.6 to work on their Deco S4, so what's the hold up and why is it taking so long please? If you have dropped support for this model then please say so.
