Hello,
Thank you very much for finally delivering this update.
Most of the improvements we expected are now available; however, there is one missing feature and one issue that requires attention.
Missing Feature:
A built-in speed test within the Deco app.
Bug Report:
When selecting WPA3 and later attempting to switch back to WPA2, the app displays “Saved,” but the change is not actually applied. Although the settings menu indicates WPA2, my phone continues to report the network security as WPA3. Additionally, older and IoT devices fail to connect, confirming that WPA2 is not being enforced.
Rebooting the router does not resolve the issue. The only current workaround is performing a full reset of the router.
Please look into this problem in an upcoming update.

I want to see the list of how many MB a device consumes per day and how many MB it consumes per month, other TP Link routers have this option, it is very emergency need,
And your speed limit option doesn't work

Thanks for you response but that makes no sense. Maybe I'm wrong but I thought the network would monitor and optimize itself to switch to whatever channel is best at a given time.
If I have to reboot the deco device for auto channel selection to work it makes no sense having the feature because technically I'm doing it manually.
I'm just saying..... The wifi bands (2.4/5) have an auto feature for the main network. So I went next door and noticed my phone was now on the 2.4 instead of 5ghz. Do you think my deco device should be rebooted each time I go out of range of the 5ghz band in order for my phone to connect to 2.4 which obviously have better range?
Do you get my point? Respectfully

@Jackdm You can use Network Optimization feature so the Deco will change channels automatically and to always connect on 5 GHz you can use Connection Preference and select 5 GHz for your devices.

You are missing my points. What is the purpose of AUTO selection if the device does not carry out the function on its own without user intervention? The option you have pointed out to me "network optimization" is another MANUAL Option, along with doing a reboot.
I never said I had an issue with maintaining connection to the 5ghz band. Read what I said again, I was giving you an example and comparing it to the auto selection option. Read it again.
