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.

Hello, sorry to respond late.
As mentioned in this below post, this 1.4.0 version firmware for the Deco M9 Plus can ONLY by updated via the Upgrade Tool and will not be pushed via the Deco app, so it is suggested to upgrade it by following the instructions attached in the firmware download file:
https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/212300
This version is an officially released firmware and it is not a beta test one, so don't worry about it.
Good days.

I tried the update tool but it says I cannot log in: "incorrtect TP-link ID or password". I'm 100% sure the email adres and password are okay. Even changed to a new password on the deco app to make sure but still no luck.
So I can log in to the deco app, I can login to this website but I cannot log in to the update tool. Why?

I did not have any issues with logging in for the update. Maybe try changing the password into something simple, temporarily.

Hello, sorry about that.
We do receive two customers' feedback that they cannot update the firmware on their Windows 10 computer, but they successfully update the firmware via MAC or Windows server. What is the operating system of your computer? Do you have any other computer which can be used to give it a go? If not, we will need to check more details and try to help you.

Did we loose port 30000 in firmware 1.4.0?
I updated from 1.4 beta to 1.4.0 using the web ui.
I gave the units a reset and now I cannot connect anymore (connection refused).
I'm running in AP mode.
Anyone else seen this issue?
Edit: nevermind, web ui is working for both when using port 80.

@Robert_M Got the same issue with "incorrtect TP-link ID or password".
I used the old tool called upgrade_GDPR.exe however, which did it's job fine
You can find it in this zip:
https://static.tp-link.com/2020/202003/20200324/M9v2_1.4.0.zip
Only use the upgrade_GDPR.exe and use the manual in the word file... then use the firmware from the official website, rename it to firmware.bin (else you have to type over the whole name) and place it in the same directory as your upgrade tool is.
Then enter your username, password, server (IP address of 1 of your TP-Link) and firmware (firmware.bin) and press UPGRADE, repeat this for all your TP-Link v2 devices.
Will there ever be an update available for the 1.2 based versions in the Deco app? Or is the update meganism broken in that version? If so, what the heck did you do. I've already given up on TP-Link and will never buy these devices again (I think I'm one of many in this forum).

What would expect from a company based in China? Perfect software?

Thanks! Upgraded 2 of 3 Deco's using this tool; the third one gives an error:
Exception in Tkinter callback

Last time I used this same tool to update all three of them. Any tips?
