When somebody says, I want to manage everything on one place, then I wonder why one can not upgrade controller software. On cloud one is 5.4.5 currently and if tp-link updates then we get higher version, but for software controller there is no other way than to manualy stop controller then upgrade, which is kinda not "simple management".

Please add button upgrade controller.

1. It should always uninstall current controller by accepting to backup current configuration which is restored after upgrade.

2. You can add script checking/confirming update by user, in case no reponse is done within lets say 2 minutes, controller reverts back to previous version

3. Deployment on windows can be easily done with silent switches, for linux it should not be a big deal installing from tar.gz which is valid for all linux distros

I am managing several controllers where no port forwarding is available at all (from ISP iternal 10.x address, no bridge mode, mostly lte connections) and I have on every controller set wireguard which creates a peer to my connection letting me browse/use the network and logically upgrade controller. This would not be at all required if upgrade button would be available as one could upgrade from cloud controlled controller to which connection is established. This would spare quite some time and most importantly for tp-link, prevents user from making mistake as not much has to be done manually.

When I look at tp-link cloud, then I wonder if tp-link is going to release Omada Cloud Server or similar which would let a user control/add/remove controllers from own cloud, aws/google as example. I guess this should be a separate request and guess tp-link will not publish it as tp-link wants to sell licenses, however, just mentioning it does not hurt I guess.
