How to force connect to particular Deco
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Hi,
I am wondering, wether it is possible to set, to which Deco unit should be connected concrete device.
My example: I have 3 Decos and in some rooms, there are air purifiers, cameras or gateway. As I checked, for example gateway is not connected to Deco, which is in same room, but to another, which is far away. And gateway reports, that signal is bad. And as I not move with this gateway, I want to force to stay connected to Deco, which is in same room, 2 meters from it, so from signal point of view, it should be much more better.
So, how to force it and how to set, that this device should be connected to expected Deco?
Thank you!

@Alexandre. Thank you - I tried it with an older 2.4 Ghz router as you suggested and it worked, however it was about 10x slower than when the device connects to the furthermost Deco upstairs so it isn't workable for me.

Have similar problem.. would be nice to have a fix for!
I bought 2x 3 pack m5
4 I use at home, 2 I use else where
Unable to control which deco connects to other decos I have 1 jumping past the close one and connecting to the further away deco, giving me really bad latency and what looks to be max wi-fi connection but the deco to deco connection is one bar... Please let us have control as to what deco connects to other decos.

I have solved it by going to advanced Settings:
* Fast Roaming: Enabled
* Beamforming: Disabled
And now it works as expected (at least for the moment).
I have a surveillance wifi camera which was connected to the main deco POOR signal, and now it connected to the closest Deco.
