New 1.14WW Firmware Available
« on: June 05, 2016, 06:49:49 AM »

While this is not showing up on the US DLink support site, it is a WW firmware release and I've found it working in my USA setting without any regressions for the last three weeks.
 
Version 1.14B06 - http://www.dlink.com/uk/en/support/product/dap-1665-wireless-ac1200-dual-band-access-point   

From the release notes all this added was WW signal strength adjustments, but it's several builds since 1.13B05 so I expected devs to have slipped in some fixes.   I did find it finally fixed the problem with the log page numbers being incorrect yay.  But nothing else of note.
 
My previous experience with the DAP-1665, in that it spontaneously reboots with more than 15 mixed 11n/ac clients attached, persists.   I continue to use it only for 5Ghz 11ac clients where it performs adequately and have employed a DAP-1522-B1 handling 2.4Ghz 11n clients in a retail business setting.

But if you would like to be able to read the logs without the missing pages, then this version does finally fix that.   Use at your own risk/discretion, or even better contact DLink to make this available formally in the USA/Canada since it does fix at least one problem.

Thanks for the heads up.

I presume that this version maybe still under testing for the NA region and thus a reason for not appearing as of yet. Remember, NA region uses different wireless requirements from other regions so there maybe more development and testing before the NA region sees the official release. I'll inquire with in to see what the status is.

Users are advised to use caution with this version of FW. If your DAP is not currently experiencing any issues, hold off on updating until the official version has been posted.

Ok, v1.14WW is ok to use in the NA region. Wanted to check first. USA likes to test code before releasing here. There maybe a future NA release however not sure at this time.

Let us know how it works for you...

Enjoy.

Hi, thanks for the info

My question would be:

Does this firmware give the ability to change the pre-shared-key for the new wifis?

Could I use it on a DAP-1665 A1 ?

I don't wanna use the key from the repeated wifi.
Like I can with (p.ex.) DAP-505
