QUOTE(deepan84 @ Aug 30 2021, 04:26 PM) Suggest you just store the stock router in the cupboard. Use deco alone. If not enough coverage, buy more deco nodes. Try to connect all via Ethernet backhaul. If can’t, wireless also ok. All will use single SSID. I tried this and removed my tm.tplink router but cannot get internet signal from my deco ...is there a particular setting I need to set on the deco app to recognize unify ? Spent hours ..simply doesnt work ..when connect back router instantly have wifi connection.. appreciate your helpEdit. Modem = white device without antenna that must be retained. Router = with antenna. Usually TPLink or Dlink. Can throw aside. |
