@Nardol It says so in the Greek TP-Link website. Though I just checked other TP-Link websites and it doesn't say it. Either not all websites have been updated properly, or there is a listing mistake in the Greek website, which I highly doubt.

Many of us downloaded the 1.7.5 firmware from the website when it was avand now it's been removed? Could you kindly explain why? Do you recommend we stay or revert the firmware back to 1.7.4?

Hi, further enhancements are needed for the Parental Control functionality on 1.7.5. This version has addressed certain security vulnerabilities and is indeed a more secure release.
If you haven't experienced any issues with Parental Control on the Deco M5, I think you could stay on 1.7.5 and wait for the next official release.
Nice to see you again. It would be more effective to send an email to the local technical support.

The specific sales strategies differ across regions, and there is a possibility that they intend to substitute it with a higher model to cater to the growing local bandwidth requirements.
Thank you very much and best regards.

@David-TP Thanks for replying back. I think that type of information needs to be shared on the tplink website to avoid any confusion. I am not having any issues with 1.7.5 and i also dont user parental control so all good in that regard

Thank you and it is very helpful!
Best regards.
PS: During the initial release of version 1.7.6, some users might not be able to get the firmware notification via the Deco APP.
The firmware has been uploaded to the EU site if you want to manually update the firmware:

Got a notification from the app (new firmware available).
But the app (latest version) said the latest firmware was already installed (1.7.3).
Refreshing didn't help.
Manually (WebUI) installed the 1.7.6 on my 3 Deco M5 V1.0's and works fine so far.
