Thanks David for updating the community despite being in the late Q4 of 2024, usually I notice TP-Link only releases big major improvement during mid of the year. but this has changed my perception of it. 

Will definitely give this version a try out as they finally implemented DoH and DoT.

This is a great news for Deco users. Will other Deco models especially the BE series (BE65, BE85 etc) receive DoT & DoH support too?

Tried that, it looks like the problem with Deco app and devices not showing where are connected ( deco app shows those devices as connected to other) remains with fing enabled or disabled. PPPoE disconnects more often (once per day ) but this problem maybe temporarily

  @David-TP Are this features coming to Deco x60 V3? Especially the 20 Mhz/40 Mhz channel width selection. Also how will this feature work if i have 3 deco x50 with 3 deco e4? Will e4s also shift 2.4 Ghz to 20 Mhz channel width?

  @David-TP 

after 1 day upgrading in to this firmware problems arises .

Devices went to "other" connection status, PPPoE connections showed as connected but the internet was lagging , WiFi (5Ghz) was full but no connection to internet , tried ping 192.168.68.1 with timeouts . Restarting didn't do anything good.

Too many issues to stay on this one, had to revert back to 1.6.0 release 61500 (20240801). 
back to normal.

  @David-TP I was pretty impressed with your release cycle seeing the firmware dated 2027, but I see that the actual file is 2024 laugh

Hi, It is planned to roll out the similar firmware for other models. However, the ETA is unclear for a specific model.

"Also how will this feature work if i have 3 deco x50 with 3 deco e4? Will e4s also shift 2.4 Ghz to 20 Mhz channel width?"

- I think it should depend on the main Deco. Then the satellite Deco will follow the settings.

Thank you and best regards.
