Model: Deco X50-Outdoor  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 1.2.4 Build 20230922 Rel. 71054

Hi. I have a problem with updating my Deco x50-Outdoor. Even when I made an update, it is still asking me for an update again and again, but the firmware version isn't changing at all. Pictures below:

  @Emilemil123 your pc would have a different up adress.  That's not important.  You can use the to link app to see the up address of your x50.  In the browser address, simply type the up adress and it should open the device's web page.  You need to log in with your TP link account and then you're good to go.  There are tutorials in the to link website and I believe instructions are on the specify download page.

  @Emilemil123 hi.  I had the same issue for a loong time.  The download and installation seemingly took place but the reboot never happened.  Finally I used the web interface.  Download the correct file based on your model, save it.  Go into the deco using the ip address of it.  Go to the system menu and there you can download that file into the deco and that worked like a charm for me.  I have not tried the app updates since but curious if it will now work.  Good luck

  @Emilemil123 I did.  It says cable is recommended but I took the small risk and it worked fine.

Ok. But I have to be connected to the same WiFi address to do it, right?

Hi, it didn't work. I tried so many solutions already and it still asking me if i want to update it. Once I tried to do this thru the website, after I restarted the main one, there was no connection at all of them, so I had to restart all the system again and create everything from the beginning. I think it's better not to touch it at all, but thank you for help anyway. It works perfectly, but the notification is annoying.
