Web UI Configuration
The initial plan of the Deco Whole Mesh system is to configure via Deco APP as we hope to provide a super-easy installation and non-high tech required experience.
Due to this commitment, Deco APP allows us to quickly and easily install Mesh Wi-Fi System by just following the step-by-step set-up wizard. Some users commented, ”This thing literally holds your hand through the full setup. 99% of people will hit next, next, next, and you are on the internet” which is just what we want.
Next, Deco App allows monitoring the home Wi-Fi from anywhere without bringing a laptop and making changes right from your smartphone or tablet. So as long as taking your smartphone with you, the home network activity is under your control.
Then, with a few taps on the APP, the advanced features, like Parental Control, Port Forwarding, and QoS are ready to go.
Moreover, when it comes to firmware upgrades, the Deco APP will automatically push a message when new firmware is ready. All you need to do is click “Update Deco”.
While, with the time going on, we gradually received some feedback that users hope Deco could be configured via web UI or more advanced features could be configured on the web interface. Unfortunately, there has been no plan to add these features yet.
But we are open to any feedback and would be appreciated it if you could let us know why you prefer web configuration to APP setup. So we would collect more brilliant ideas which might be taken into consideration along with the future APP upgrade.
Thank you very much for your attention and please feel free to comment below.

@TP-Link A Web UI with more options would be fanstastic. I have a Deco X55, love it and other Deco models as I work IT, however I can not give more than a 3 out of 5 ratings because the App is so frustrating to use, barely functions most of the time, has extremely limited information and settings, and overall its kinda a nightmare to work with.

@TP-Link Even after several years still a valid comment from various users. Especially people managing multiple networks are in desperate need of web based Gui and/or a PC/MAC based app and not only an Android/IOS app. There are a lot of people out here that have way more knowledge on networks and want to be able to manage their networks in a proper way.
You've asked for comments on why we as users wanted to have such interface and already several years people have been requesting it. Your hardware is OK, but the software lacks what users want. Isn't listening to customers a prime objective? Take Sonos as an example.... They didn't listen #NeedISayMore

@tplink : STOP PASTING THE SAME BS IDIOTIC TEXT FOR YOUR BS MARKETING ATTEMPT FOR THE RIDICULOUS APP AND FOR NOT LISTENING TO THE CUSTOMERS.
YOUR APP IS NOT USABLE NOR HAS THE ADEQAUTE FEATURES AND FUNCTIONALITIES FOR ADVANCED NETWORK CONFIGURATIONS!
i AM ALSO RETURNING YOUR PRODUCT, SOLELY BECAUSE OF THIS RIDICULOUS MOVE ON TPLINK PART OF ELIMINATING THE ABILITY TO DO NETWORK SETUP AND MANAGEMENT FROM THE BROWSER!

I have been using TP link hardware for a long time now. this deco product just seems like a data hording scam.
I say this only because it is impossible to manage the unit without a tp-link account??! ridicules!
It is very unfortunet.
I created this account just for this comment and now i will start de-commisioning my tp-link devices.

@TP-LinkIt is absolutely ridiculous notion that everyone is exclusively performing everything on their mobile phone.Those of us, who like to have complete control over our network and assign static IP addresses and do other advanced configurations: we don't want to do it on the phone, we do it on a computer.
Additionally: on your phone app: it is actually not even possible to manually assign IP addresses to any of the devices, it is an absolute and horrid nightmare....the app that is...
Whoever thought that completely eliminating the advanced router configuration options from a computer's browser should be fired immediately....
This is the reason why I am returning your mesh router..... I can't work with this.....

@TP-Link I just bought the AXE5400 Pro and will be returning it due to the lack of web UI.

@TP-Link The web ui configuration is easier to use because of the larger screen. Features are easier to access because there is room enough all the needed information can be seen at one time. Tasks can be completed without having to change screens several times.
It appears to me that the only value to having the configuration on a cell phone is that you can carry it with you. I have no interest in trying to manage my router from a distant place on a cell phone.
