Why can't they all be released at the same time, like with iOS?

 

It seems like 1.5.2 gets released much later on X20 than on M5. I have the M5, M9 and X20 and they all get released at different times....

I don’t think they can do that otherwise who would give up such an excellent ideacool.

Guess routers have some special limitation and could not be developed based on same platform;

Do you happen to find any router brand could do that?

Related question - is there a way to get notification of a firmware update for a particular Deco model?

(Either email or via the App would be nice!)

@LaurieR 

The new firmware will be notified by Deco APP.

But based on my experience, TP-Link released the firmware to different users in different time so not all of us will receive the new firmware notification in the first place;

Checking their official websites regularly would be a workaround;
