Model: Deco M4  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.5.8 Build 20230619 Rel. 48552

Hi, A while ago I've updated the M4 deco's to this latest version.
Since then I am losing randomly connection. 

My router seems to stay connected but the main-Deco unit turns red and then the other deco's too.
One computer is directly connected to my Ziggo modem/router and it doesn't lose internet.
So it seems that just the deco's are crashing.


Can someone provide me with the 1.4.3 ( latest 1.4 ) firmware?
I like to downgrade and make it stable again. 

Kind regards,

 

Lootbox

Hi, welcome to the community.

Is Deco working in Wireless Router mode or Access Point mode?

When Deco M4 turns red, do you need to restart the Deco to restore the internet connection?

How often would the Deco connection drop out?

 

From 1.5.8 to 1.4.3, they are crossing different firmware platforms and you might need to run a firmware recovery to downgrade the firmware.

How to use firmware recovery if the Deco become brick

Thank you very much and best regards.

Yes only way of getting the wireless internet back is restarting the main deco.

Frequently it drops. Weekly if I'm stressing it with a lot of devices.

Someone else had the same instability issue. They advised him to downgrade to version 1.5.4.

I've now downgraded the deco to version 1.5.4.

We will see if it's stable now.
