@TP-Link_Deco 

 

I have the s20 5g and it says that I have wifi 6 in the top right corner but how come I can't get the WiFi 6 speeds close/near to 1.2gbps.

 

I get only 500-650mbps ish download and 374-400 mbps upload. 

Also notice 5ghz isn't using or has 160mhz and the channels that it would provide.

 

Please add 40mhz channel width for 2.4ghz and 160mhz channel width (ax) for 5ghz with 50,114 channels, fix auto channel selection algorithm or add manual channel width and channel selection for both WiFi bands.

 

Lastly please fix WPA3 so it is backwards compatible with WPA2 devices as well.

 

These features in a firmware update would make this router even better and great. Please consider to do this, your mesh wifi system would be amazing then.

 

(Deco x20 v1.20)

@TP-Link_Deco  I have just updated manually via the updater tool and for my Deco M9 plus V2  firmware in app still says: 1.2.11 Build 20190626 55727 

this seems not the latest firmware version, on the support page  for Belgium this is mentioned to be the latest version.

 

When will the updated app and firmware be available so i can update the security to WPA2 or WPA3 as i am concerned about the message in my iPhone "weak security"

 

thanks

Stef

@Stef_Belgium 

 

Hi,

I am from Belgium as well and I just updated today the firmware without any issues.

However, I didn't use the manual procedure and waited until the Deco app told me an update was available for download.

 

IOS 14.0.1

Deco 2.2.2

M9 Plus V2 firmware 1.4.3 Build 20200921

 

BTW, the firmware you have is pretty old and there has been an update this July, if I remember correctly.

I had to install it manually as the Deco app told me there was no update.

That update solved the problem of random disconnects I had

 

Cheers

Michel

@TP-Link_Deco How long is this supposed to take? It has been stuck on "Uploading..." for an hour.

@TP-Link_Deco I have 3 m4r units and 3 E4R, I was able to (by utilizing the web interface only) force the m4r connected via cable to update. Everything else is showing as the old firmware and now on the web interface, even though it shows my main unit as of the September update, it's saying the latest for my m4r main unit is July. This is a little crazy. 
 

edit: finally got them all updated after spending an hour trying to force the update constantly. Took a lot of waiting and a lot of retrying. It never worked updating it through the app.

@TP-Link_Deco Can we have a beta fix for us stuck on 1.5.0 and have had no antivirus updates for over a month please... Sept 15th was my last AV update with this firmware and its exposing my network to threats.

 

Thanks

@Kingdaveontour1 

 

Hello, apologies for the late reply.

 

We have confirmed with our R&D that with the previous versions before 1.4.9 (including), the Antivirus page shows the time when you click on the "Tap to refresh" button, which doesn't mean the Antivirus database refresh every time you click on it, it will detect if there is an update on the database, if yes, then it will update the database, it not, it will stay use the old database.

 
While with the newer firmware 1.5.0, this has been changed, only when there is an update in the database, the "Tap to refresh" will show you an update, which means if there is actually no update recently, that time won't change.
 
Thanks very much for your feedback and let us know if you have any inquiries about it.
