  @David-TP Is there any firmware in the pipeline to address these issues with 1.71? Surely your engineers are working on something. There are far too many people with issues right now. And all in the same vein.

  @David-TP 

 

Just to keep you up to date. Ive dug out an old Archer C2 (V5) which is now the main router for the network. The ethernet connected devices now have a solid connection. The wifi on the Archer C2 is turned off (both bands, and the guest network turned off also).

 

I have carried out a full factory reset of all 5 M5 units and they are working in AP mode instead. The wifi still has regular dropouts though they manifest as slow or sometimes non working web access. It only seems to be certain things such as Youtube, images on twitter (X!?), certain web pages being slow/non responding etc...

 

For the moment it is OK but i look forward to a firmware update to correct these issues soon, I would prefer to be running the M5 network as the router since I can monitor and tweak settings via the app.

 

Any tests the firmware people want us to carry out im happy to do.

 

EDIT: FYI I have looked at the units and three of the units are V3.00 and the other two are V3.20 if that is of any relevance.

 

Cheers for now! :)

@TP-Link Hello, if I want to downgrade from firmware 1.7.1 to 1.6.5 (Deco M5 AC1300), do you have a step-by-step tutorial?

 

After updating to the most recent version, calls in Teams hang or play only audio without any video, and Youtube videos only play for approximately 10 or 20 seconds before they stop and remain "loading".

 

Otherwise, do you have a new beta or an estimated date for a new release version?

Hi, Welcome to the community.

There is indeed a new firmware for Deco M5:1.7.3 Build 20230906.

Release notes:

New Features/Enhancements:
1. Optimized the auto-upgrade function.
2. Optimized the accuracy of the client list display.
3. Improved system stability.
4. Fixed the bug that port scanning errors recognized some IOT devices as risky devices.
5. Fixed the bug that parental control doesn't take effect.

It is suggested to update to this version first to see whether it helps with the current issue.

Thank you very much and wait for your reply.

Best regards.

  @David-TP I was looking forward for this new version.

When is it going to be available in Brazil? It still shows 1.7.1 update (I kept the 1.6.3 version after reading the feedbacks waiting for a better version).

@CenterInYou @Balloni There is still the manual upgrade procedure if your local support website provide it but not the Deco app.

Correct but if you go to the US website for the M5 they are only showing 1.7.1
