@TP-Link hello! i would like to get the beta software. i have the same issue as many of the posts in here. the unit farthest away(3) from the main unit is connecting to the main unit(1) instead of the slave unit closest(2) to nr3. i thought this was the hole idea with the mesh system, thats why i bought it.

Hi, 

I have a 4 deco m5 setup in my home and the decos in my bedroom are getting their signal through the main deco in the living room on the other side of the house instead of the hallway one which is in the middle. 

Is there a rough estimate for when we can manually select the signal source? 

Kind Regards, 

Ivan

@TP-Link When do we get the firmware to fix the issue for this "supposed" mesh system? The 3rd satellite is worthless if it only connects to the main signal source vs the #2 satellite..

@TP-Link when are you sending me the firmware so I can select my signal source? DECO M5

@TP-Link hello again!

can you please answer and send the beta firmware ASAP. 

regards

Anders

@TP-Link 

Could you please send me a beta link? For the Deco P9.

Hello I just added an M5 unit to my existing 3 nodes, the new unit is in the garage,  on the other side of the garage wall is the node in the kitchen but its connecting to the node in the living room which is a few rooms away.  Can you please get me access to the Beta firmware which allows for network optimization. Many Thanks

I've just installed the beta firmware. It took a bit more time for the whole network to be up, because the farthest unit rebooted twice (probably changing the source signal requires a reboot). It is  now using one in the middle as the Source Signal, so I FINALLY have a real Wi-FI Mesh network and everyone's happy. 

Kudos to the TP-Link support team, please make this Firmware GA for everyone!

I have five M5s in two adjacent buildings (house and cabin). I emailed the tplink person weeks ago when he/she first asked for beta volunteers but never heard back..

I'm not in a rush since my M5s do seem to choose correctly, but sometimes they change on their own.
