Deco M9 Plus V2 problem

Hi
I have an issue with the Deco M9 Plus V2.
Story: I bought a set of 3 Deco M9 Plus V1 and they works fine with the app. I wanted to expand my network and bought a new set of 3 Deco M9 Plus.
They new Decos turned out to be Deco M9 Plus V2. No problem connecting the new Decos in the app.
Now to my issue:
The M9 Plus V2 does not look the same as my Deco V1 in the app. I can´t see what devices are connected to the V2.
Even a iMac connected directly to LAN doesn´t show up, but internet works. Even less if there are wireless devices connected.
I want full control of my network. I believe it should work, it said so on the package.
What can we do to solve my problem?

@goodgoat @SrDarkWarrior I second that please. And would add if I have issues/bugs pop up with the beta is there still a way to go back to the latest non beta firmware? (Sorry I don't know the numbers in front of me but I'm guess it's 1.3 something) btw SrDarkWarrior, great work and thanks for taking the time to answer and help all of us here. It's much appreciated.

i have the same concerns in mind too. i also want to get these new features, but with a new build coming out soon (supposedly)... i fear i cant downgrade/upgrade to the new build after installing this beta.

Main features that got me to upgrade were:
- Ability to see how decos are connected with eachother
- Ability to see which device connects to which deco and if it's on 2.4 or 5Ghz
- Ability to turn off mesh for specific devices
- Web UI
I have been using v1.4 since mid April and didn't encouter any stability issues. The only problem that i've noticed is that from time to time, some devices will show connected as "wired" instead of wireless. For example, at some point my iPhone showed as being connected as "wired" to the main deco, other time it was my iPad. Obviously, none of them were wired devices. This didn't influence connectivity in any way.

I just got an e-mail from the dutch support department that (if everything goes as planned) the update for V2 is deployed in Q3 2020.
