Model: Deco P9  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: Deco P9(EU)_V2_1.1.3_201228

I bought five deco p9 units: in the app, sometimes, I notice that the PLC connection to some units disappears. Since I'm having problems, which I'll have to investigate anyway, I wanted to know in the meantime if there is a maximum number of DECO P9 devices that can be connected to the PLC at the same time. Does this limit exist? How much is?

They have changed it recently to recommended maximum of 6: How many Deco units can I add to my Deco mesh network?

I have five p9 devices so I shouldn't run into issues related to the number of nodes. Six is the limit, perfect I have five: that can't be the problem. I've read that there are beta firmware circulating, where can I download the latest one?

Unrelated to the total number of units, but I am suddenly experiencing the same thing with PLC disappearing. I have three P9 units in total.

In my case the system is stable up to 4 devices, but when I plug the fifth unit it happens that a random unit (there is not one in particular) loses\recover the PLC connection in a loop of seconds or minutes

 

The latest firmware beta I've found, is in this article:

When I have time and possibility I will install it to see if it will solve the problems.
