Web access Deco M4R Wifi Coverage Settings what are these for?
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
When I access my Deco M4R via browser and go to System > System Parameters I see a section called WiFi Coverage as seen in below screenshot, at default is shows the three Wireless networks as "Please Select" Question is should I set these to something?
Secondly the WAM Unicast section is greyed out is that correct?
Additional info:
When I set the settings to any choice Low Med or High I see pop up "Operation Failed" (see second screenshot below)

Same issues here with the same firmware version..
Also the option enable IGMP is not available anymore..
When you browse to the system parameter page, the error message "operation failed" appears.

Hi, I am sorry the logs were submitted successfully about two months ago but they hadn't been picked out in time.
Then I found I might make a mistake. We mainly set up and manage Deco via the Deco APP so we usually ask for APP logs. But this time, I might need your help to send me the system log from the web UI. Sorry again for the inconvenience. (You could send it to support.forum@tp-link.com)
The engineers still believe the abnormal display of the web UI is due to the limited CPU and memory capacity of Deco M4. I see both two new feedbacks are about Deco M4_V2.
Could you please do me a favor? Please temporarily power off the two satellite Deco M4 units, leave the main Deco M4 only, and then restart the main Deco once.
After that, please try to log into the web UI again to see whether "WiFi Coverage" is still here.

"the Wi-Fi coverage section is not supposed to show up on any models. After further confirmation with the engineers, this part only appeared when the current connection was temporarily buffered, then it would disappear after the web UI was properly loaded."
As for the "IGMP" option, Deco supports both IGMP V2 and V3 which are enabled by default. The IGMP on/off switch on the web UI is to fix IGMP to V3 only which is required for some internet service providers.
I didn't have Deco M4_V2 at hand for a test. But I saw from the attached pictures of Chrisparf that there wasn't an IGMP on/off switch either, so I think maybe Deco M4_V2 does not support fixing IGMP to V3.
Thank you very much and best regards.

Hi David,
Your theory seems to be correct.
I've logged on the main deco, it is early in the morning. So not much activity on the wifi.
And the page seems correct.
Enable IGMP is there
Unicast setting is there
Wifi channel setting is gone.
