Deco 5 x 3 mesh setup to improve WIFI signal of super hub 3
I am also experiencing VM superhub 3( running in router mode) poor wifi issues in the house so have got a netgear 8 port ethernet switch upstairs with the supre hub 3 which connects( shield tv, apple tv, pc, synology nas, xbox and fire tv, SPA2, this goes into a power line to ground floor to a netgear 4 port swithc which connects to my TV , blu ray , vm box and xbox series x . in the other room i have got another wired netgear switch connectd to my pc and philips hue and printer. The super hub is placed upstairs.
i have 23 wifi devices connected to my superhub 3 wifi on 2.4 ghz and 5 ghz respecitvley.
The SSID is vm123456
I have tried all the troubel shooting with VM CS to improve the wifi signal but no luck, hence bought the deco M5.
CAn you please recomend a setup for the existing equipment.
1) Can i still use my superhub in router mode and use the deco 5 as a AP so that i can keep using the 4 lan ports on the super hub 3 and the 8 port netgear switch.
2) To use the super hub in modem mode and use the lan port to connect to deco 5 and the other port of deco 5 to switch so that all other devicces will be connected, will this work for all the existing switch, connect the second and third deco m5 wirelessly to cover blackspots in the house.
3) connect the downstiars deco to existing netgear switch with the ethernet wires and use the Deco m5 to improve the wifi.
any other suggestions, welcome.
thanks for you support.
