Deco P9 Keep Disconnect (PLC problem)

Hi.
I've a problem with the connection; it was OK previously but for couple of weeks the stability seems very bad with the satellite units
I have 3 units of P9 V1.
Already upgraded to the latest firmware..
Seems the PLC is not working well ; it keeps disconnected (if view from the status you can sometimes see PLC but sometimes dont)
Whats the solution to this?
@TP-Link Thanks for replying
The original issue is that only 1 of the satellite is disconnecting every 5 mins or so ( I have 3 units ) and yes it will turn red and then after a min or so re-established the connection.. and this issue keeps repeating every 5 mins or so.. and the PLC doesn't seem to be stable; sometimes it has; sometimes it doesn't.. this may what cause the unit to keep disconnecting (as the wifi backhaul not sufficient to sustain)
I have updated all the 3 Deco's P9 V1 with the latest beta firmware you have shared. An initial review found that the PLC connection is now much stable; i.e every time I log in to see the PLC status; it is always there; unlike previously as mentioned; most of the time the PLC connection is not there
And my house wiring is a single phase ; hence no issue with PLC backhaul (in theory)
I will monitor another couple days to see whether the issue is truly resolved or not
Please note that I didnt have the issue (same configuration) when initially use this P9 .. cant recall what what the firmware.. but only recently I found this problem.. hopefully this is purely caused by firmware issue and not faulty hardware
One thing I noticed ; with the problematic P9 unit, the whole network seems sluggish and the admin page become unresponsive when try to login... If i switch it off the loading of the admin page is smooth
