Do you have any solution for this problem? With latest beta 1.6.0 Build 20220816 Rel. 31542 all 3 Decos are loosing connectivity several times per day. I have my set in access point mode. This is annoying bug, disturbing quite much. Stability tests would be good to do, when releasing new firmware. I think this issue would come up in those tests.

i have found that my 3 deco setup with Ethernet backhaul v1.6.0 running in ap mode needs to be optimised regularly. I've been running with daily reboot as per recommendations to ensure stability however most days I find it is needing optimisation to improve performance. 
 

when I set to weekly reboot I do not have to optimise again until after reboot.
 

i think that after a regular reboot the network does not necessarily optimise. 

could this bug be fixed or could there be 
 a scheduled optimisation option or at least an optimisation performed some time after reboot. 
otherwise scheduled reboot function is somewhat useless. 
 

Happy to help debug of you provide what you need me to do

ThankS

  @David-TP I can confirm the issue with DDNS is now solved. Thank you David and the development team for being so helpful on diagnosing the problem.

I installed this latest beta earlier today but already once wifi connection dropped. Needed to restart main Deco. Interesting, that this root cause hasn't been found or has it?

  @David-TP the version is still 1.6.0, which is already the last stable.

Will there be a new release for these fixes, 1.6.1 for example?

I am surprised to see a new beta for the version already considered as stable.

Does this beta firmware  Deco M5-1.6.0 build 20220810 has bug fixes other than the parent control one?

hello, want to ask, if this beta version is official beta for Deco M5?

has anyone tried? and what issues this version supposed to address?

Regards,

Following up on this. Still rebooting once every day in order to mitigate issues and sometimes I have to physically kill power to all decos and perform a hard reboot otherwise satellites won't operate correctly despite being hardwired.

Update to my previous post it started doing it again. The garage AP is saying it is disconnected from the rest of the APs, even though it has a green light, and it is now wired to the Main AP with Ethernet backhaul (doesn't matter if it is wired or wireless same results)  and I can access it via the web browser using its IP address. Rebooting it didn't fix it this time.

  @TP-Link It was one unit that the Deco app and when you logged into the main unit via web browser would show as disconnected from the rest of the deco m5's. Didn't matter if it had was Ethernet backhaul or \Wireless backhaul.  So if you tried to reboot all your M5's at once it wouldn't be rebooted because the app doesn't see it as online. Hard rebooting it didn't do anything for it either  

 

I did find a solution, however, though I am monitoring it to see how long it will work.   What I did was find the IP address of the one out M5, and logged into it via a web browser hook up to Ethernet back haul.   I used the Deco M5 app on my iPad and rebooted all the Deco M5's at once and rebooted the one that wouldn't connect to the others at the same time via the login from the web browser. Thus they were all rebooting within a few seconds of each other.   When they all came back online they could all see each other.  It's been that way for about 24hrs now.  I will continue to monitor it.  The Garage Deco M5 was the one losing contact with the rest of the units.  The office and Family room are Ethernet back haul and the garage, Rec room, Rec room Alarm are all wireless back haul.
