Note: 

  • Please ensure your Deco app is fully up-to-date.
     
  • This firmware cannot be reverted directly to the previous official release.
     
  • Attention: Please do not upgrade directly to Pre-Release Version 1.3.0. First, check for any available updates via the Deco app to see if 1.2.4 is available and if so, install it. If it is not yet available to you via the Deco app, follow these steps:
    •  After downloading and opening the compressed file, open the included text file.
    • Follow the text instructions and manually upgrade to version 1.2.4 first, then proceed with version 1.3.0.
       
  • There will be an official firmware release in the future. If you are not comfortable using pre-release firmware, please wait for the official release or contact our support teams for assistance.
     
  • Pre-release and Beta firmware should be used at your own discretion. We cannot guarantee the functionality of features or technical support for Pre-Release or Beta Firmware.
     
  • For detailed instructions, visit: How to manually update the firmware via web UI.

Has anyone tested this?

 

1.2.4 nuked most of my Guest clients. I had to disable the combined 2.4/5/6 SSID and revert to 2.4/5 without the custom encryption.

 

Still having folks report issues and degraded performance.

I haven't seen any reports on the US forum but it has had a few beta testers on the En forum. Here is a link for you so you can see what people are saying.
