@TP-Link Agree. We were properly sold down the river on this Beta program. Nobody should be stuck on Beta software for nearly a year! No progress reports, release notes on fixes...nothing
Currently looking at other mesh brands as replacement..

@TP-Link i have never seen a beta like this...no information...too long...nothing...i thought changed but no money for it right now, it would be expensive to replace 5 device... The application is sloppy, no possibility of mass actions... I have 55 devices connected in total and making changes becomes a real torture... just deleting devices that no longer exist is torture. .. I don't know how other brands work but I'm disappointed that I bought tplink.
1 year for a beta...

@TP-Link Just pressed update deco for the last time tonight. 2x ASUS ZenWiFi Pro XT12's coming tomorrow. Can't wait to forget about this useless, forgotten about beta program that has severely reduced my user experience and sanity. Some poor sap is going to end up with 5 mesh devices that will never be properly supported. Good luck to the rest of you..
