Tags: #Deco app
Model: Deco BE95  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.0.18 Build 20240410 Rel. 46175

I have a network containing 1 BE95 and 2 XE75's and I originally was let down when you couldn't set it up to block all MAC addresses except for the ones you have approved (i.e. white list) and instead you had to block the addresses you didn't want connected. I was happy to see that you added the white list feature as "Allow List" as opposed to the "Block List". However, my Deco app still only shows Block List under the More tab. Under the Discover tab it reports that it has the feature for selecting a Block List or Allow list, but I haven't found a way to enable it. Any suggestions? I'm using an Android phone with Android version 14 and have the latest Deco app installed.

Hi, welcome to the community.

I think it is due to the firmware of Deco BE95. the latest 1.0.18 firmware hasn't supported the feature of "WiFi Access Control>Allow List" but Deco XE75_v1_1.4.0 has.

So when they are added into the same Mesh network, the mixed Mesh system would only have "Block List".

Thank you veru much and best regards.

OK, thanks again David. Do you know when this will be included in the BE95 firmware? It's odd that the new feature was added to older units and not the latest and greatest Deco unit.
