Model: Deco M4  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.5.0 (V2), 1.5.6 (V3)

The network consists of 2 Deco M4 devices. I would like to set up a permanent VPN for one laptop. According to the instructions (https://www.tp-link.com/pl/support/faq/3642/ -> Use VPN Client to Access a Remote VPN Server), this is possible. I should be able to set up a VPN client in the application and specify the clients that will use this connection. Unfortunately, when I go to the Advanced settings in the application, I don't see the VPN Client option. According to the instructions, this should be possible on any Deco device ("This article applies to: Deco products"). I have attached a screenshot of the software version; the application does not find any newer versions. Please help or advise.

Hi, Thank you very much for the feedback.

 The latest firmware of Deco M4 V2 and V3 doesn't support  VPN servers/clients yet.

Best regards.

  @David-TP Thank you for your response!

 

Is there anywhere I can find information about the plans for a new firmware that includes VPN Client settings? Can we expect it in the near future or at least within a year?

@pilak FYI, the latest firmware for M4 (V2) is also 1.5.6

Just a M4 (2-pack) user who regrets buying it
