As the previous post about version 1.7.0 was too long to navigate for information on the newly released 1.8.x versions, I have created this new post. Kindly share your feedback on how the new 1.8.x work. Your input will greatly benefit other users.
Thank you very much.

@Bugs22 How did u get the 1.8.2 firmware? And yeah there is a VPN in Router Mode. I got the firmware 1.8.2 from the senior engineer of TP-LINK through email and there are lots of bugs.

@ARGamingPK1 I was prompted in the deco app. Trust me - I wasnt planning to install a buggy beta product on my devices.
TPlink had better get onto this pronto - as they are prompting thousands of customers to install a buggy firmware.

@Bugs22 You can manually install the previous firmware by using Web UI.

@Bugs22 Can you tell me are you using Deco in Router Mode or AP Mode? Are you using any ethernet connected device from Main Deco? Because when i use in Router Mode and when i connect the device on ethernet from Main Deco so the Deco App does'nt show me the bandwidth consumption of that device and monthly data usage of that device.

@ARGamingPK1 I'm in AP mode as I decided to let a real router do that work and AP for its purpose.
They are backhaul ethernet and working well 12hrs later. The bandwidth reporting issue has appeared since 1.7.x but now appears fixed.
So far this is the best version since 1.65. Fingers crossed I don't suffer bugs you are experiencing.
Maybe it was only pushed out to me because I'm in AP mode?
