@Momcho I have 1.5.7 build 20210819 Rel. 43499 so it looks like there has been an update since your version.
It looks like there are differences between different countries about deployed firmware, which is another thing which lets us in a total confusion.

@TP-Link Please, please, please rollout this new update in every country! Wi-fi interference has been high for me lately. I cannot use my 2nd deco m5 because of this. I noticed that the first deco is a lot faster than the second one even though I am near to it. We acknowledge that you are doing your best in providing good services to us. But please, rollout this new update. Thank you.

@TP-Link is there new firmware (beta) for deco S4 v2?
- Copy Link

@TP-Link I finaly installed the beta.
1. I had to reboot all my Deco network (3 Deco M5 and 1 Deco M3W) just after the update has been installed because of a lot of disconnections.
I observed this behavior after installing last stable update 1.5.7 but it is worse for 1.6.0 as for the previous update, it was only the M3W which disconnected then reconnected.
Other reason to reboot all my Deco network was antivirus which indicated "updating..." for security database indefinitly. After rebooting it was OK.
2. QOS seams more agressive than before. I set downloads as medium priority, and my PC is added as a priority. Durring the download my Raspberry Pi which runs the local resolver (Adguard) was not able to make DNS queries. SFTP connections were very slow. I had to restart my Raspberry Pi and stop the download to be able to use everything right again.
Finaly once again, the only reason which make me unable to really test everything is I don't have only Deco M5 and worse, I have Deco M3W ;)
Are there some issues with mail notifications? This morning I had some disconnected devices for which I received notification but the reconnection notification arrived more than 5 hours after. Moreover, I had online notifications for devices which was not disconnected.

@TP-Link is this beta suitable for Deco M5 Ver 3.8?

Don't do it. We all have been stuck on this rubbish beta for 6 months now!
No fixes to all the issues, new updated betas nothing.
Beta testers should be getting more updates instead left with a highly unstable network which needs regular reboots to fix
