Can't Upgrade Deco X55's Firmware Using Any Of The 3 Methods
2023-04-25 21:36:14
Model: Deco X55  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: Deco X55(US) 1.0.1 Build 20221103 or Deco X55(US) 1.2.0 Build 20230113

I originally purchased a Deco X55 3-Pack (labeled as: Basement-Main, Basement-TV, and Family Room), but after a couple of weeks of use, I determined a fourth Deco X55 was needed for better coverage on the top floor. This fourth unit (labeled as: Loft) was a 1-Pack. I am trying to update the firmware on all four units, but especially the new single unit (labeled as: Loft) as the firmware appears to be rather far out of date.

 

  • The "Loft" has:                  
    • Deco X55(US) 1.0.1 Build 20221103
  • The 3-Pack are:  
    • Deco X55(US) 1.2.0 Build 20230113

 

  1. I tried updating the firmware from within the Deco iPhone app (the app itself is the latest version) but I get the message, "Your Deco Home Wi-Fi System is currently up-to-date. Enjoy!"
  2. Next, I tried updating the firmware from within the Deco web portal located at http://tplinkdeco.net using my credentials and being directly connected to the Main Deco unit using an ethernet cable. I clicked the "Check for Upgrades" button located there.
  3. Finally, I tried updating the firmware from within the Deco web portal located at http://tplinkdeco.net using my credentials and being directly connected to the Main Deco unit using an ethernet cable, but this time going to Advanced > System > Firmware Upgrade. Then I selected my device model that I wanted to upgrade and clicked the BROWSE button to choose the firmware I already extracted. It was a XXXX.bin file.

 

I tried both .bin files for:

  • Deco X55(US)_V1_1.2.0 Build 20230113
    • Published Date: 2023-03-01
  • Deco X55(US)_V1_1.2.2 Build 20230301
    • Published Date: 2023-03-31

 

These were downloaded from: https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/download/deco-x55/

 

Both of the 2 firmware versions failed at about %50 of the way through and I got a message saying to download the right/correct/up-to-date version.

 

Here is a screenshot of my units:

Hi, welcome to the community.

Deco X55 V1.2 could not use the firmware for V1.

 Normally V1.0=V1.6/V1.8;   V1.20=V1.26/V1.28.

And 1.0.1 Build 20221103 Rel. 43293 is the current latest firmware for Deco X55 V1.2.

 

Thank you very much.

Best regards.
