@David-TP 

Thanks very much for the prompt and informative reply!

I used the web method to install FW1.2 on my BE65's and I will now purchase a BE85.

  @David-TP the 1.2 update is still NOT repeat NOT showing up for the BE85 in the US in the Deco app or BE85 product website; also still NO update for the BE95. Any ideas why neither one are seeing updates yet?

+1 @David-TP what's the latest here? No show so far on "Friday"

Whats going on with the BE95? It's been 2 months now and the BE85 and BE65 (both based on basically the same chipset) are getting new features, but nothing for the flagship. DNS over HTTPS was promised years ago and still nothing. Why is the flagship router getting the worst treatment?

  @David-TP  Do the BE-85 Series allow for MAC Filtering (Whitelisting/Blacklisting) at all?

I have had a look all around my device and cannot seem to find this at all as I want to enable the feature on my device as I want to enable it under my Guest Network.

If this feature is not avaliable do you know when/if it is going to be implemented at all?

Bedroom is about 20m away wth 2 walls in between.

Removed Ethernet backhaul and it became more stable, wireless backhaul stable but speed is not as fast as Ethernet backhaul via MOCA. Mesh satellite unit (Bedroom) did not report offline (green light throughout).

Previously when the satellite mesh (Bedroom) went offline, the LED was solid red then blinking red. It cycles through the solid red, blinking red, then turned green solid, then repeated.

Now that the new 10gbps internet is connected, the setup is as follows:

Internet Speed Plan: 10gbps / 10 gbps

Modem -> BE85 (Living Room) -> MOCA 2.5 adapter (Living Room) -> MOCA 2.5 adapter (Bedroom) -> BE85 (Bedroom)

Ethernet backhaul through MOCA

Wifi Setting:

2.4GHz & 5 GHz Network - 2.4GHz, 5 GHz, 2.4GHz 40 MHz Auto, 5 GHz 80 MHz Auto

6 GHz Network - 320 MHz, Auto
MLO (2.4 GHz & 5 GHz & 6 GHz) - 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, 6 GHz

IOT - 2.4 GHz Only

Usual speed attained (Living Room): 1,490 Mbps / 1,040 Mbps (wireless) - iPhone 16 Pro Max Speedtest

Usual speed attained (Bedroom): 590 Mbps / 770 Mbps (wireless) - iPhone 16 Pro Max Speedtest

However, the Bedroom satellite mesh unit may sometimes wake up from sleep mode and gave a burst of sped to 1,400 Mbps / 1,000 Mbps. But this is very erratic and not predictable.

So far the Deco App did not notify Bedroom Deco offline.

Video call still get pixated but hung at times, but not disconnected.

Fast Roaming - Disabled

Beamforming - Enabled

Suspected the Ethernet Backhaul is still causing some confusion to the mesh.

Occasional waking up from sleep mode. Mostly sleep mode for Bedroom satellite unit <600mbps.
