Wifi security WPA2 AES missing in Deco M9 Plus?
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I am trying to connect my car ( Volvo XC60 ) to my Wifi. The car wants me to change WPA2 to AES instead of TKIP!
So no connection!
Connection to another Wifi router with WPA2 AES is OK!
I can not find any place in the Deco M9 settings to change Wifi security!
Any clues??

Hi, welcome to the community.
I see from the cloud server that your current firmware is 1.2.11 which is a little old since the latest firmware for Deco M9 plus is 1.5.6 build 20211018.
How to update the firmware (method 3 via upgrade tool): How to Update the Firmware of Deco
And the upgrade tool: Deco M9Plus_2.0_upgrade_tool
Thank you very much.

Deco supports WPA2 AES and TKIP, in a normal case, if the client support AES encryption, it will connect to the Deco with AES encryption.
Currently, as you know, this feature to fix the security type is not available now. But we do receive some similar feedback and keep recording the same kind of request. Then we can forward it to our product engineer and they can work on it. We will upload the information on our official website if there are any updates. It is very suggested to keep an eye on the official website and wait for the updates.
Good day!

For now, there is no ETA when this feature will be available, but we will forward the customer's inquiry to the product engineer soon thus they can work on it.
When a new feature will be added with the firmware upgrade, there is a long journey to launch a new firmware cause lots of tests need to be done to ensure its performance.
It is very suggested to keep an eye on the official website and wait for the updates.
Good day.

@Ingvar I'm trying to connect my car to the Deco home network and I cannot do it. The reason is that I can't set security to WPA2 AES on the Deco app. Please fix this! Thank you!
There is no editable web interface to the Deco M9+, I see only the same information that is available in the Deco App. It would be nice to have some more access! At least the basics! Thanks!
