Connecting deco m5 to existing router
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I dont have the deco m5 yet but i wanted to ask:
If I already have a router that I want to only use as a modem/access switch, and cancel its wifi in order to only use the deco as a router, do I need to cancel the original router DHCP and make it a static ip?

Hi,
If you want to use the Deco M5 as the main router, it is suggested to configure your ISP modem router into a bridge mode. However, as mastermjr2004 mentioned, this may be decided by your ISP that whether this can be achieved or not.
Hope this makes sense, good days.
