Deco Configuration Backup
Seems like this has been requested many times across the Deco line, but there is no backup function for my Deco unit. I've checked in the mobile app and browser.
Many many reasons why this is a must have already been shared.
For me, it took me many hours to add all my DHCP reservations, update device names, etc inside the mobile app. It is imperative that we be able to back up all of this configuration work. Many stories of people losing all their work as their main unit crashes.
I read on one single thread that config data may be stored in the TPLink cloud. I haven't been able to find any other evidence to support this. Is this true?

@Riley_S The explanation doesnt go any way to explaining why this was never available as a function, especially when it is with other models. Development for this function is included by default on free linux distros that are developed by teenagers in their bedrooms, so its really not a huge undertaking. It should be done already.
No point living on promises and delivering too little, too late. I think my faith in the brand has been damaged to the point that I no longer wish to purchase any TP Link devices in the future if the dev team are this inept.

@Riley_S This would be better than nothing. Please let engineering know this is very important. Seem such a small feature, yet this can turn off alot of new buyers. If I knew about this before I bought I would have avoided this mesh system because backups are a thing and if I spend hours configuring my system over it's lifetime (entering and naming new clients that connect for example), i don't want all that info lost during an update or upgrade (hw or firmware/sw). Thanks and I do appreciate the update.
