Deco P7 shown as "low-security WiFi" on latest iOS 14 Beta
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Hello!
I own a Deco P7 Mesh network with the latest Firmware update.
Also I am currently testing the latest Apple iOS version 14 (currently in public beta).
My iPhone 11 shows my Deco P7 WiFi network as "low security risk" because of it's WPA/WPA2 (TKIP) encryption.
Also iOS tells me to switch to WPA2 (AES) or even WPA3.
Problem: There is no such option in the Deco app available.
Can anybody confirm this issue?
Kind regards
Andreas

I have the same problem with Deco M9 Plus, my iOS 14 device and Windows 10 said that my connetion is weak security. We need WPA AES support for Deco.

Hello all, thanks very much for your patiently waiting and support.
Our developers recently have provided a beta firmware for the Deco devices, which allows you to change the wireless security type for your Deco network, here is the download link if you are willing to update it:

Note: Ensure you are running the latest Deco app on your phone first, Android version 2.2.1, and iOS 2.2.2.
Let the community know if you have any inquiries, thanks a lot~

I upgraded manually to 1.4.8 on my P7 system.
The WPA2-AES encryption seems to work - no "low security" message anymore on iOS 14.
But the security can be only configured once after a fresh boot of the Mesh system!!!
As soon as I restart the DecoApp again, the settings for encryption are gone.
(So to be able to view the encryption settings again, you have to reboot the Mesh system)
Seems to be a bug in the DecoApp (iPhone).
Please can you forward this to your software department.
Regards

It seems that the speed is no much worse than before...
I only can use 3-10 MBit on my 40MBit internet connection.

Hello, we just confirmed and cannot reproduce the issue you reported that you can only change the security once until you reboot the Deco system, can you send us the app log by contacting our Deco feedback? You may launch the Deco app->Help->Contact US->Suggestions, remember to check the "Add System Logs" option and send us the feedback, thanks.
