Model: Deco XE75 Pro  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.2.8

The connection between my main Deco and the satellite Deco usually shows as Strong (2.4/5/6GHz), but after 6 days the 6GHz band stops and the signal is shown as Medium. After the weekly reboot everything returns to normal for 6 days. I am using the Decos in access point mode with a Fritzbox 7530 router.

The 1.2.8 beta firmware was released in December followed by the 1.2.9 update in January that did not include the updates from the beta firmware. We are supposedly going to get a firmware that combines both sets of updates, but since it is almost May I am wondering when?

  @Divad 

Hi, nice to see you again.

I see there is a 1.2.10 version under testing but not sure when this version will be officially released.

 

For the current reported issues here,

"After 6 days the 6GHz band stops and the signal is shown as Medium", Do you mean the 6GHz signal stops broadcasting and the 6GHz clients are unable to detect this signal?

Thank you very much and best regards.

  @David-TP I only use the 6GHz band for backhaul as I only have a few WiFi 6E clients. All I know is that the satellite Deco reports that it is using 2.4/5GHz rather than 2.4/5/6GHz. I did a speed test to see the effect of this and the 6GHz returned briefly, but later this trick did not work. Speeds seem fine but I only have 330Mbps connection.
