Deco M5 firmware 1.6 is now available through Update Deco feature in Deco app for Canada, possibly US and other regions. I haven't got notification about new firmware in the app, but under Update Deco there it was.
Check in your Deco app, and if you don't see it yet, keep checking on regular basis.
I've updated my two Deco M5 with new firmware through Deco app. Update was successful, but it took longer than app expected. Just give extra few minutes for update to complete, after Deco app says it is done.
