Note:
1. *According to the user feedback and our further test, this 1.5.1 version does not support reverting to 1.4.1 via downgrade firmware recovery directly.
-Ever since 1.3.0, the firmware bin file has been over 32MB which passes the maximum file size of the HTTP uboot upgrade tool. So if you want to revert to 1.4.1, please refer to the following suggestions:
- Still run a firmware recovery on one of the satellites Deco X50 first.
- Try to upload an older official version, 1.2.2_Build_230301.zip for example,
- Then update to 1.4.1 from 1.2.2 via web UI.
- If this process works for the satellite Deco X50, We could repeat it on the main Deco later.
2. Please make sure the Deco APP is up-to-date.
3. Some features might not be available when there are other models in the Mesh network.

Hi,
I have a 3 deco mesh network connected like below:
Spectrum modem -----> main deco X55 ------> 8 port switch -------- 2 Deco W6000s
I am experiencing frequent "Network device 'br-wan' link is down" disconnects starting at least a couple of months back and at the time I manually updated the X55 I have to the newest firmware manually which was the 1.5.0 firmware because it wouldn't automatically update via the app despite it being the newest on the website. Unfortunately after the update, the disconnects seemed to become more frequent. All of the logs I've captured show the wan connection being down for about 3 seconds total which is enough to knock internet out for all 60 devices on my network. In most cases I didn't see the main deco's light turn red, I would simply notice that the connection was down if I was watching something streaming or I was working and my VPN noticed the loss of connectivity. I also noticed that the 1.5.0 firmware is no longer listed as the newest firmware for the x55 so that is not good also. Is there a way to downgrade the firmware so I can at least try to get it to be useable? Thanks in advance.

Hi, Thanks for the update.
The official 1.5.1 Build 20240417 for Deco X55 was released yesterday. I think you could try to manually install the final official version to see whether it helped with the WAN link error:
