Slow Wifi Speed after upgrading M5 to firmware to 1.7.0

2023-06-20 17:39:20

Model: Deco M5

Hardware Version: V3

Firmware Version: 1.7.0 20230504 Ref: 63624

Hi @David-TP

After upgrading my 2x M5 to Firmware Version 1.7.0 20230504 Ref:63724 ,

1) My wifi speed has considerable reduced. I have a 500 Mbps Download and Upload plan. Whereas I am getting only 200 Mbps over Wifi as well as Ethernet.

2) I am also unable to downgrade and switch to previous stable version as I am using MacOS and don't have access to a windows Laptop/ PC.

3) Also, when I try to do Speedtest within the Deco App on my iPhone, I get an error saying "Failed".

please suggest some solution to the issue at the earliest.

4) I am unable to remote access my Network when not in the Nework.

@David-TP Thank you and really appreciate your Prompt response.
The 1.7.1 has fixed a few issues for me ..
1) The Remote Access to My Network is Restored... Works Perfect Now
2) Speedtest Works Again.

Overall much stable

Though The Slow Wifi Speed still persists ... Speedtest within the Deco App Shows 400 - 450 mbps + Download & upload speeds but on device Wifi Speedtest even next to the Main Deco unit does not cross past 300 Mbps. ( Device Connected to 5 Ghz connection )
