Hi

I tried to setup my deco m4. But failed, it showed red light. I tried 2 methods, connect the cable directly to the modem and also connect it with the router but both method failed.

Any idea?

Make sure your deco connect to correct terminal's port.
Eg your old router is connect to port 1, then Deco also need to connect to port 1 to be on router mode.

If your Deco is used, perform hard reset first too.

okay, i managed to get it connected. thanks!
is it possible to connect the deco directly to the modem?

Can, then Deco react like access point.
So you need to change the Modem SSID different with Deco or Turn Off Modem SSID else you having same SSID which could leading signal loss when moving around.

Do this only if your Modem is better in term of performance than Deco, else just use Deco as Router.

After using deco now I have 2 WiFi networks. 1 is deco 1 is front the modem router. What should I do towards the non deco WiFi network? Is there a way to turn it off?

If you using Deco as AP, then turn on Router Wifi signal.
But Deco can be router by it own.

Hi All,

I had setup a few M5 deco in my house and working fine. I have now got m9 from Unifi with the upgrade. How can I make one of the M9 unit become the main deco that is connected to the router?
*
reset M5, and setup M9 as fresh router, then connect back m5

Better u buy Deco M9+ rather than X20. Triple channel & faster.
Afterall, many unifi owner sell it cheap.

X90>X60>M9>X20>M5

You should arrange in Wire & Wireless condition

Wire backhaul

X90 > X60 > X20 > M9 > M5
