Model: Archer A20

Hardware Version:

Firmware Version:

Hi,

I've got the M5 and am in Malaysia.

When you use Telekom Malaysia as your ISP, it locks the second port on the M5 purely for Unifi IPTV use so i cant hook it up to my home's network.

I was thinking of getting the ArcherAX20 to use as main and add on the M5s to extend.

Would this be possible?

Regards,

Afazman

Hello,

It's OK to connect the Deco mesh network to the existing router such as Archer AX20 and they are compatible. When Deco works with an existing router, it is suggested to turn off the router's Wi-Fi network and use Deco's Wi-Fi network instead to minimize the wireless interference.

However, Deco can't build a mesh network with non-Deco devices, it can only build a mesh network with the Deco devices.

It is suggested to refer to the below FAQ for more details:

Good days.
