Model: Deco M4  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.7.0

Hi there,  I'm going to disclose about my user experience of deco stabe and beta firmware. 

#The last stable version of deco m4 us v2 was 1.6.1 so far i know and it is really very stable, working well without any issue. I recommend it to all m4 us v2 users.  

#Now Let's share about user experience of first release of beta 1.7.0 ,  This beta firmware is as same as 1.6.1 stable one  with minor improve and fewer features added  like  Iot devices function which is same as guest network, Device isolation is same as so,the  Radio band selection  individually for guest as 2.4ghz and 5ghz  has been added, WAN port manual or auto mode function has been added which is not necessary, bandwidth consumption(uses) as per client has been added to the monthly report segment. Deco Reboot schedule has been added.

#This beta firmware is working pretty well without any issue. 

#Mistake :Developers made a mistake removing CWMP/ CPE feature which is important for remote management, I hope they will notice my thread and will fix it.

 

#Installation process: Wow! Installation process is so easy than it was noted from where i downloaded it,  they told about to get roll back to official version first before flashing beta.  But I just downloaded it and then extracted by z archiver app, then i found a bin file, after then i logged web ui page by router/ smartphone gateway address found in wifi settings. I did choice advance option  then settings >firmware update  then select browse >internal Storage of smartphone >where i extracted to that bin file in a folder >select add and update was starting. It took only 1 Minute to get from 0% to 100% to be flashed and after that router took a reboot of 3 minutes. Within 1+3=4 Minutes all process was completely done and everything looked fine.  There was no any tftp server or additional tool required for this installation process. 

#Long demand long since: we are most of deco users deserving  Wifi channel selection manually , bandwidth selection(as deco always select busiest channel itself which ruins performance) mac filtering with a white list and black list feature, (as neighbours or other people get access to the wifi password by QR code scanning) bandwidth

allocation as per client. I am getting attention to the developers, please and please do add these functions to save us from internal and external threat around us,  We are using your deco  app buying deco units trusting you and your cloud policy(although we are not forced to use insecurely to disclose our activity to the android app and cloud), then why don’t you  take urgent step for solving this issue loving us???
