Model: Archer C5400  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.25

I am using a C5400 connected to an ISP modem. I am experiencing dead zone in some parts of the house so I am planning to get Deco to extend my network. With C5400 running on tri-band (2.4Ghz, 5Ghz and 5Ghz), which Deco model has similar speeds and performance?

Hi,

Thanks for your patience.

Since the Archer C5400 is still working on the DHCP router, if just using the Deco to extend the Wi-Fi range, access point mode would be much recommended on the Deco in case of double NAT issue;

When Deco works on the access point mode, there are little differences between each model so Deco M4 or M5 would be more competitive on price and performance;

But if you still want to use the Deco as the wireless router, Deco M9 plus, Deco X20, and X60 would be more recommended;

PS: the difference between router mode and access point mode:

Thank you very much and wait for your reply.

Should I buy the m9 plus or x20? Why? Hope you can answer me based on the C5400 router information I provided. I want to fully utilised and yet future proof my investment.
