| Deco X55_V1 | Deco X55_V1_1.5.5- updated 2024.8.12 |
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, the EU and US versions of Deco X55 shared the same firmware download link of 1.5.1.
Please refer to following post to find the download link:
https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/674472
It would be highly appreciated if you could update later how the 1.5.1 firmware works.
Best regards.

@David-TP I see that 1.5.1 for Deco X50 V1 (EU) is pulled from the updates.. It cannot be downloaded anymore from the website and in Deco app the update is gone aswell.
question : is there a reason for that?
furthermore, I notice that Deco X55 does not now a 1.5.1 for EU model, but has a 1.5.3 update with security fixes.
- is 1.5.3 also coming available for Deco X50 v1 EU?
- are the security fixes for Deco X55 also relevant for Deco X50 and if so, are these security fixes that should be installed ASAP?
Regards
Jan

@Whitesnake thanks, but... I'm kind of reluctant to update it manually. Shouldn't the update be available through the Deco app? Right now it says I'm on the latest software already (which is 1.4.1)...

Hi, If you are not in a hurry for the new features on the 1.5.X versions, I think you could wait for the 1.5.5 official version which is expected to be released in the next few weeks.
It is said that 1.5.5 has optimized the issues reported in the previous versions and also added security fixes.
If you do want to install the 1.5.1 version, I hope you can install this beta firmware first:
Optimize The Overall App Experience/Network stability on Deco X50/X55_V1
Thank you very much and best regards.

@unr3voked The updates through Deco may take longer to become available. Being impatient, I can't wait because no one knows how long the rollout of the new version might take. Doing it manually or not is a personal choice. But as I told you, don't worry because it works perfectly... In my case, it's because I wanted to have the new WireGuard protocol available. Good luck! :)

Hi David.I bought a new X50 v1 and updated it to 1.5.3 from x55 USA SITE. Is this wrong? Although at first glance everything works fine.
And another question. When will the firmware for X20 v4 be released?
I see a regular problem with it, that after optimization, it drops to 2.4GHZ connection with the main X50v1 (any firmware) , reboot/power off or repeated optimizations (even if the application says that everything is fine) help to return to 2.4/5.
As a temporary replacement, I took x20 v1.2 from a friend (firmware 1.5.3), the main one was X20 v4 (firmware 1.2). Such a problem was not observed.
I can send logs, but I can’t find the section in the application where to do this.
