Deco XE75 and Zigbee
Following on from this Previous Question
I have just spent £300 on a set of three XE75 Deco units on the understanding I could connect my Tuya radiator valves (TRV's) into the Deco Mesh ecosystem. I couldn't add the Tuya Valves directly to the Mesh, further investigation reveas that on the M9 is compatible!! So I tried to link the zigbee smart hub onto the network, without any luck.
Two questions, when will the XE75 (almost flagship of the Deco line up) be updated so the Tuya Smart home can be included in the mesh system, An secondly, how can I get this issue resolved with what I have?
Thanks in advance

Thanks @David-TP , tried a number for different scenarios this morning and success, I think............
So finally,
- Moved the hub about 2 metres away from the Deco unit (thinking interfernce),
- Disabled all other WiFi bands, so the XE75 was just transmitting on 2.4Ghz, @ MightyQuinn
- Roaming & Beam forming (which intern Disabled OFDMA/MU-MIMO aswell) and the Zigbee hub connected, - actually the Tuya app said it failed but then suddenly it appeared, so did all my TRV's.
- Turned all WiFi bands (2.4, 5 & 6) back on
- Roaming & Beamforming remain disabled
Now, if I was to enable the Roaming & Beamforming is that likely to remove the Zigbee hub? I know I could try but while I'm winning, ...................

Additional Info. to the above. All the initial pairing was done on my main network SSID and not the IoT SSID. As you can not move devices from one SSID to another I had to reregister the Zigbee hub on the Iot SSID. I found that, even though my IoT SSID is 2.4Ghz only I still had to turn off the 5Ghz and 6Ghz band on the main SSID to get the hub to register. Also turning Beamforming & Roaming once registered has no affect.
Thats Possible, but if i do a wifi network test, using WifiMan, only the 2.4Ghz is live.

Going to give up now for today and have another go tomorrow...........
