All devices connecting to just the primary Deco
All devices connecting to just the primary Deco
All devices seem to connect to just the primary unit, at least when I look in my app.
M9 Primary : 15 devices connected
2 x M9 satellites: 0 devices connected
1 x M5 satellite: 0 devices connected
I have just reset all units and recreated the network, hoping for this to change, but to no avail.
Connectivity is not a catastrophe as the reason for having so many satellites isn't the distance but the need to connect units via cable in different locations.
The wi-fi is a bit weak in the room furthest away but it still works.
But it's weird.
Not even the units connected by cable to the satellites show up as connected to them!
Everything is updated, both firmware and the iPhone App.

Just in case, power off/on all M9 Plus and check again in Deco app.
If Main Deco M9 Plus continues to stay on firmware 1.2, do the following:
Promote one of updated Satellite Deco M9 Plus to Main Deco: How to replace the main Deco with another Deco
Delete from your Deco mesh Satellite M9 Plus which used to be Main Deco and stays on firmware 1.2. For that, follow Reset a Deco unit, Method 1 from this document: How can I reset or reboot my Deco Whole-Home Wi-Fi System?
See if you have now correct reporting in Deco app.

YAY @Alexandre.!
Connected to the uncooperative Primary unit with a LAN cable and did it all over again.
NOW it updated!
AND devices do connect to the Deco nearby.
Many thanks for your support and patience.
Make a wonderful day

Great! Will keep that solution in mind when someone else has issues with M9 Plus firmware 1.2 update.
Now your Deco M9 Plus must be on firmware 1.6. You can check that in Update Deco page. With both M9 Plus and M5 fully updated, you have unlocked all new features introduced in firmware 1.5 and 1.6, see the list here: Understand the Differences Among Deco Firmware Platforms
Enjoy.
