Deco M9 Plus v2 firmware not possible to update and are missing features compared to v1
I have v2 and the DECO app reports that I have 1.2.10 Build 20190809 54285
On the webpage https://www.tp-link.com/de/support/download/deco-m9-plus/#Firmware however there is a newer 1.2.11 20190926 55727
Why does the DECO report that I have the latest firmware and why cant I upgrade to 1.2.11?
On the other hand what Im really asking for is to get the same features as HW v1 got.
You have release 1.3.0 with lots of new features and it was built in August and Released in October. Why dont we get that for revision v2?
All these things was release on Ocotber for revision v2
Modifications and Bug Fixes:
1. Added support for IPTV bridge mode and custom mode.
2. Added IPv6 firewall rules feature.
3. Added Mesh Technology option.
4. Displayed which client is connected to which deco and which Wi-Fi band.
5. Displayed how Decos are connected to each other.
6. Supported up to 64 entries each for Address Reservation and Port Forwarding.
7. Improved the system stability and fixed some bugs.
Notes:
1. Please update your Deco App to the latest version in order to use new features.
2. If there are other Deco models in your Deco network, you may miss some new features till other models release updates in the near future.

@bengtone I did not measure speed or range before the update and will not now, that has always been good enough for me. If that is what you're asking about.
I do have the new features now, like seeing which device is connected to which Deco. So that's fine.
Parental Control is still working very erratically in my double NAT setup with a Fritzbox-7490 main router. I was kinda hoping this would improve too, but it appears I still have to remove the router functionality from the Fritzbox to get this solved. Hoping that will not kill my TV and phone functionality.

I think I'm not going to update, the difference in days between the 1.4.0 beta and this new release version is 5 days between the 2.
i think they will be the same except they disabled wan ping on this new update.
And the build date was 3 months ago.

@bengtone I don't consider myself a pro-user. I will not be testing every feature thoroughly, I can only say it works. Wifi works, the Deco app connects. Everything looks fine.

I did the upgrade from v 1.2.10 to 1.4.0 Rel 53529, and it went very smooth. Some guidance for those of you who have not upgraded yet:
You have to download two zip files: the new firmware and a utility. See the links in previous posts in this thread. A step-by-step upgrade manual is included in the firmware zip file. You don't have to connect via a UTP cable to the Deco's. Just connect via wifi to one Deco (the manual says it must be the Main Deco, but I did not do that and it worked fine) and the utility does all the work. Be patient for about five minutes in the last utility screen, the Deco's will reboot and that takes some time.
