Hi

 

I have 3pack Deco M9 Plus V2 US version but I can't get update from iPhone app.

 

My actual version is 1.2.12 Build 20191014 Rel. 42025

 

Please a need the upgrade_GDPR.exe executable to upgrade manually.

 

I found a lot of links in this forum but all of them are unavailable. Can someone send it to me?

 

Regards

 

Bernardo

@marcelvanrooden 

 

I just bought a 3pk Deco M9 Plus from Costco.

 

I found the out of box experience with the 2019 1.12 firmware unstable.

My setup is AP mode connected to my ASUS RT-68U, fast roaming disabled, and single line (not star) wireless backhaul topology.

Clients were disconnecting very easily with the firmware out of the box.

Checking for new firmware in the app showed that I was running the latest updates.

 

Found this thread here and this one too: https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/179488
Putting a couple things together I downloaded (for Windows):

https://static.tp-link.com/2020/202006/20200608/M9Plus_2.0_upgrade_tool_v1.1.0_win32.zip

(the tool was available from the standard support page: https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/download/deco-m9-plus/#Utility)

 

However, getting the firmware required the link posted above (v 1.4). The upgrade utility tool above makes it really easy to upgrade the units compared to the GDPR tool mentioned earlier. In one shot it updated all 3 and I only had to enter my tplink id and password (no IP's etc to find and enter).
 

Afterwards I reset each node, double checked they were on the latest firmware, and reset again. Then added them one by one in my original AP mode configuration with the ASUS RT-68U. So far so good - will come complain here if this new stability doesn't last.

@linkadink do we have to update each deco unit or just the "master"?

@linkadink 

 

How did it update all three in one shot and by reset did you just remove power and plug back in? I would love to do what you did but it would appreciate some further clarification Thanks

@THEPRFCTEN the utility does everything automatically. I have 3 M9 v2. All three were updated at once. And the restart happens automatically at the end of the process.

I just want to say Thank you. I bought the M9 as an upgrade to the M5 but found it had less features (due to old firmware) than the M5.. The instructions will be quite difficult for a non techie but it worked for me. After the upgrade all the features on the M5 is now there. Network is now stable and I'm getting very good throughput after the upgrade. So the new firmware is more than just features it improves performance (prior to upgrading the firmware it was only slightly faster than the M5 ) BTW the script to ping a range of ip's is brilliant! I learnt something new.
