  @TP-Link @David-TP My Deco M5 is US V2.10 with firmware 1.7.0 Build 20230504 Rel. 63624

 

Can i download firmware from V2 (not V2.10 as firmware not available) Deco M5(EU)_V2_1.7.3 Build 20230906 to upgrade manually via webUI?

 

What is difference between V2 and V2.10?

  @Er1 Have you disabled mesh technology for your ESP8266?
I had some improvement by disabling it for some ESP8266 and sometime specifying a Deco to connect to can also help.

  @TP-Link Updated all 15 of ours to 1.73. The upgrade process went well, but same issues as prior 1.7X releases in that I must have Beamforming and Fast Roaming DISABLED for stability. When I turned them on, had to reboot within an hour due to drops and connectivity issues.

  @budgie29 Its a small motel across 3 buildings. :)

 

Our house is across the street where we have 1Gig symmetrical fiber. I use 2 CPE 710's to bridge the house and main motel building. From there, I have the 15 x M5's mounted in the crawl space with direct ethernet connections undergound linking the other 2 buildings. Been working out really well so far, aside from the lack of mesh features in the latest firmware releases.

It looks like this morning I'm given the option to update to 1.7.3 through the Deco App here in the US.

  @TP-Link Why is the update not available via hardware and the website support?

 

I have access to my mother-in-law's routers and from there, I was able to perform the update.

 

My routers and my mother-in-law's are the same version 3.2

  @fernandocardoso I have the same issue. Through the app I was able to update mine this past Tuesday but my in-laws whom I also manage and have them in my Deco app show up to date at 1.7.1. Must be a slow roll out.

  @CenterInYou other than that how's your experience with 1.7.3 so far?

 Do you also have issues with mesh or something else?

 

I'm looking forward for an update but I don't wanna leave the "stable" 1.6.3 given I work from home and need some reliability.
