Hello,
Since the upgrade, I've got wifi issues. Here is my Setup
Main: Deco M9 v2 with 1.6.1 build 20230403 rel 70058 (access point mode)
Satellites: several Deco M9 v1/v2 and M5
Since the firmware upgrade, I had:
- wifi connection issues (password refused)
- wifi stability issues (performance A/O timeouts)
- no issue when connected to the main Deco or a satellite with an ethernet cable
I already recreated the network from scratch twice and problems still occur

@David-TP I have 3 in the m9 plus and all configured as Ac. no1 connects to no2 by cable and no3 connects to no2 by wi-fi. all version 2 with firmware 1.6.1. every day I have to restart the nodes because they lose performance during the day and usually at night the speed is terrible and it is necessary to restart to get back to normal.
I don't know how to get log of ac to put it here.
Thanks

@David-TP After updating my M9 Plus V2.0 to this firmware when i jump between deco access points by physically moving between AP's or by changing the preferred connection/access point all packets are dropped for minutes or until I disconnect/connect wifi. I'm testing using ping to local gateway and internet.
However the WIFI does appear to remain connected.
This didn't happen on previous firmware. Enabling/disabling fast roaming, beam forming or "mesh technology" on the device does not affect the behavior.
I can replicate this issue consistently. Has this been reported by anyone else?
My topology is as follows:
AP1 (main connected to internet) --- AP2 (Connected to WIFI) --- AP3 (Connected with cable to AP1).
1. I start a ping request on my iPhone to 1.1.1.1 while connected to AP3.
2. Walk to AP2 one packet is dropped during handover.
3. Walk to AP1 one packet is dropped during handover.
4. Walk back to AP2
5. Walk back to AP3 (starting point) all packets dropped until WIFI-reconnection or several minutes waited.
I noticed the following warnings in the log following new steer event for my MAC-address.

Hi, Thanks for the update.
IGMP Proxy & Snooping is enabled by default and supports IGMP v1/V2/v3 and the IGMP Feature on/off button on the web UI is to decide whether IGMP v3 only is required.
The firmware release note of 1.6.1 does not mention the removal of this option. Could you please refer to the following suggestions:
1. reboot the whole Deco M9 plus system once.
2. change a different web browser and log into the web interface again.
(Optional) if possible, please change a different Deco as the main Deco to see whether it made any difference:
How to Set up the Satellite Deco or a new Deco to be the Main Deco
If nothing changed, could you please send an email to support.forum@tp-link.com with the following information:
1. A screenshot on the web UI that IGMP is missing.
2. What issues do you have with the Meo TV box?
Thank you very much.
Best regards.

I have been using the new version 1.6.1 on two deco m9 plus v2
It seems IGMP Snooping options missing in deco m9 plus. I have went to the web interface and I am only able to see wan unicast option.
One deco is connected to the provider network and works as router mode. Second deco is connected via cable to 1st deco as backhaul.
Without this option I am having several problems with my Meo (provider) tv box. It was working fine until the upgrade.

Thank you @David-TP
I've been running 1.6.1 for several days now and no issues. The new 100Mb/s warning showed up for me as our in wall cabling doesn't support any faster. Hopefully any further firmware won't take a long thanks to the thorough testing of 1.6.x
