Hi, Thank you very much for the update.
I'll check with the engineer first to see what might be the problem.
For the Chromecast 4 TVs issues, I wonder whether some TV channels are required to use the ISP-offered DNS servers, and once the DNS server is changed or encrypted, these channels have limited access.
Please check later whether you could receive my email.
Best regards.

@David-TP thank you so much for your support.
However, after the update of the new beta, I was no longer able to encrypt the DNS.
X50 are my main decos.
I've checked the DNS status in 1.1.1.1/help
And even Windows settings are informing about the unencrypted DNS
**Small update:
Devices like Chromecast 4 were reporting limited connectivity (I have two on the same network) so, I have to disable DoH again.
Please, let me know if you need additional information.

Hi,
Would a manual restart of Deco help change the 5GHz channel?
-Were you having any issues on the 5GHz band when it is on channel 44?
Deco X50 supports 160MHz and if we set the 5GHz bandwidth to 160MHz, would it start using other 5GHz channels?
If possible, you could also install the new beta firmware I just updated to see whether it made any difference.
Thank you very much and best regards.

I just updated a new beta version that has fixed the DOH/DOT issues on the last 1.6.4 version. Please feel free to test whether it works or not.
Best regards.

Hi,
I have been observing for some time and on other networks that use Deco (any model) that the Deco are always on channel 44. When optimizing it, it never changes the 5Ghz channel, even though the channel indicates congestion. At least on my Deco X50 it never changed to any channel other than 44. Since we are about to have a new version of the firmware, could you check this too?
Thanks in advance!

DNS mode set it to default, previously on other older firmwares, I set to secure mode, and it is working.
But for this firmware, it will cause internet timeout, already reported to the engineers after trial and error. They identified the issue and is working on the newer firmware. Understood that it is lunar new year holiday, and most of the engineers are Chinese based.

Thank you. So it's a bug from the Deco. No matter what DNS I use (I tried switching) it works for a while and then devices loose the internet access.

Yes I did, only two choice, totally disable the DoH/DoT function.
Or use back DoT and then set it to another server. I'm using P2 dns by the way.
