Hello
I installed firmware 1.6.0. So far so good, the sattelite source selection and device/client source connection are great additions we were waiting for since years! Good job!
However these features are still buggy.
1) the device/client source conection doesnt work for devices connected on the guest network, as stated. But why? Many of us connect all IoT device to the Guest network for security reasons, it would be great of we could assign them which Deco they can be connected to as for the rest on the main network.
2) as mentionned by many users on this thread, the feature is still useless as for today. For example I assign my phone to only connect on the 5ghz, but it still connects randomly on rhe 2.4ghz
Btw item #2 seems to be Ok now,
I did not update the firnware or change any setting, seems that a few reboots since a couple of weeks has fixed it

@Nardol Thank you for the question. I just checked and one of the Deco's was running on a different firmware. Unsure why. I have upgraded it and now everything seems to be working well.

This last beta firmware is very buggy for me.
I already had to reboot the deco more then 5 times since i install the new firmware.
The last one was because some devices were not connecting to the Wireless network.
When is it schedule to be released the new beta? Or the final version?
Kind regards,

@skribble welcome to the community.
Would your current issue start just after updating to the 1.6.0 beta? or the same issue already existed on 1.5.7 and 1.6.0 firmware did not make any improvement.
If it is the latter, I wish you could start a new thread here with the following details:
1. Here you mentioned that "The last one was because some devices were not connecting to the Wireless network", I think what you said might be the devices could connect to Deco M5 and would be randomly disconnected from the internet?
2. May I know the model numbers of these devices?
Thank you very much.
Best regards.
