Can you please provide the firmware verson of your deco units? You can find the firmware version by opening the deco app and clicking on More > System 

Need help with the Deco app, setup, Ethernet backhaul, network switch or rolling back firmware? Router or AP mode? https://community.tp-link.com/us/home/forum/topic/699816?page=1

Hi, if the model is Deco M5, you can test the beta firmware here to see whether it helped:

Best regards.

My system is a mix of be65 and m9.  The be65 is now the main  Deco.  The change after that was that now I can log in to the guest network, but no internet access

  @Stekin Actually, the guest network only works on wifi.  Backhaul clients don't work.  My system is two units via wifi and four units via ethernet (fiber). The M9 units have software version 1.9.1 build 20250612 rel. 45690

The main unit model be65 has software version 1.2.0 Build 20250718 Rel. 43949

Hi, thanks for the update.

Could you please refer to this link to help me submit the Deco App log:

How to submit Deco APP log

 

Please also add some screenshots of the network map on the Deco App, such as:

By the way, would there be a network switch used for Ethernet Backhaul? If yes, can I have its model number?

Wait for your reply.

Best regards.
