Does X10 have the "Preferred Band/Node" feature?
Hi everyone,
I'm planning to upgrade my home mesh system from the Deco S4 to the Deco X10, but I need to clear up one specific detail before purchasing.
On my current S4 setup, I heavily rely on the ability to manually assign a Preferred Band (5GHz) and a Preferred Nodeto individual devices. I specifically need this to lock my Xbox onto the 5GHz band so it stops roaming or dropping to 2.4GHz.

The official TP-Link compatibility article hasn't been updated since 2025 and doesn't list the X10. However, I know the Deco X10 received a new firmware update in March 2026.
To anyone currently using the Deco X10 on the latest firmware: If you go into the Deco App, click on a connected device, and open its settings and Specified Connection, do you see the option to select a Preferred Band and Preferred Node?
Any confirmation from actual owners would be massively appreciated before I hit the buy button. Thanks in advance
