Advanced connection info?
2019-06-16 18:12:51
Model: Deco M5  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version:

I noticed that there is very little advanced info available in the App about the Deco (in my case in AP mode).

 

I am missing:

- Client connection speed/channel/band

- AP backhaul info (I have them wired but no idea if the cable is being used)

- As mentioned in a separate post: options for manual channel + width selection (the default of 40Mhz for 2.4 is bad)

 

I understand the Deco series is meant  to be for basic end users, but a dedicated "Advanced" view mode with a bit more tech info would be nice for troubleshooting as well.

Just wondering if more something like that is planned in a future version?

 

BTW: It took me a while to figure out where to get a list of connected Deco's (the internet icon), which is not the most intuitive place IMO.

This option is still available in AP mode.

 

Meanwhile the firmware need to be 1.3.0 or above.
