Hello, to satisfy your needs, you can configure the Deco M4 as access point; then the IP address of connected devices will be assigned by the main router. 

 

While the access point mode does not support some advanced features, you can click https://www.tp-link.com/support/faq/2399/ to get more information. 

 

Best regards.

Hello team,

One more question about the topology. Should i use  this topology: main router wired to deco 1, edco 1 wired to deco 2, deco 2 wired to deco 3 Or main router to deco 1, main router to deco 2 and main router to deco 3 ? 

Regards,

Alex.

Both okay, while considering the difficulty of network layout and the wifi coverage, you can connect them like ISP router --Main Deco --slave Deco 1--slave Deco 2. 

 

Good day.
