Hi,

 

May i ask. I'm currently using Deco M4 units and are linked to my router. Recently i've changed the wifi channels for both my 5ghz and 2.4ghz after seeing the traffic from a wifi analyzer. But as we now know the Deco units unfortunately are made fixed to specific band or channels only. After i've made the channel changes for my router and checked again the wifi analyzer, yes the Deco units channel are still with the previous channel. So now my router is on different channels while the Deco units are on different channels and yet the connections / internet is still working. Technically what's happening? Can anybody help to explain? Thanks

@K.G. 

Hi,

In most of the case, Deco does not support band 4(channel 149-165) on 5ghz and only band 1(channel 36-48) is available;

Only in Bangladesh, all the mobile devices used band 4 so we have released a specific firmware to fix the 5ghz on band 4 but this firmware is not suitable for all users;

So if you want this firmware because some devices are not able to detect the 5ghz, please send me the detailed model numbers of these devices and where are you located, Thank you in advance;

While if it is because the current channel is too much crowed, changing to band 4 is not a good option since some of your devices would fail to detect the 5ghz and we suggest you use network optimization to improve the channel;

 

As for the hidden SSID on the same channel, it is used to create the wireless backhaul between Deco units;

Thank you very much.
