@David-TP At the moment I'm running the current beta firmware 1.7.0 on my M4 V2, and it's working well. No lost connections or red LEDs anymore as in the first beta version. To my surprise I must say, given previous experiences. :)

 

However, I was wondering if its possible to update to the final 1.7.0 version when it arrives, or do I have to install the 1.5.8 verion first through firmware recovery?

  @larkim Answering my own question - the solution was to log onto the IP address of the individual unit and upgrade from there.  Should have thought of that sooner!!

I have just recently purchased a twin pack of Deco M4 v2 units to expand my existing Deco mesh.  They auto updated to the 1.6.1 firmware via the app.  I want to update them to the 1.7.0 firmware, but when I connect to either of the units via the web browser, the 'Device Model' drop down doesn't work and without that it won't let me perform an upgrade.  I've tried Chrome and Edge on a Windows 10 machine and Chrome on an Android device... all with the same result.

 

Is this a bug in the 1.6.1 firmware or am I doing something wrong?  I don't recall having this issue when I installed beta firmware on my Deco X50 units.

  @PinguinM I was running a 1.5.0 beta firmware on my Deco X50's.   When they finally released a new GA update, they released it as 1.5.5, so I suspect we will see similar with the Deco M4/S4 v2 update if it ever makes it to GA.

Do I always have to do this: "For Deco M4_V2, the firmware downgrade(back to the official 1.5.8 version) needs to be implemented via firmware recovery." before installing Deco M4_V2_1.7.0?

  @MhdeWit 

No, it is not necessary. You should be able to update to the 1.7.0 beta directly from the official 1.6.2. Firmware Recovery is only needed when you plan to downgrade from 1.7.0 to 1.6.2.

Best regards.

  @David-TP 

 

Hello David,

I have noticed recently that after restarting my DECO's - MAIN M5(3.2) 1.7.8 Build 20240719 Rel. 70981 with three Satellite S4(2.0) 1.6.2 Build 20240718 Rel. 69205 - that the Connection Preference screen is clearly available for a minute or so after reboot under each connected device and I can navigate the options in the screen, all DECO's are available within the selector screen, I can select the Preferred Deco I want, save it and it shows as saved (in the shot below the main M5 is the living room and the connected device is saved to one of the S4 V2's) the Deco moves that device to the relevant S4 but then after a minute or so when you click back out to home screen and back into devices the Connection Preference option is magically gone again and the functionality is hobbled once more. This infers the functionality is there in code but is removed via config shortly after reboot. This is extremely frustrating given how much back and forth there has been around this. Can you please get a proper answer from your dev teams as to what this means and why that functionality is clearly there, functions but is then removed shortly after reboot. I think we'd all appreciate an honest answer here at this stage.

Thank you
