Hi there,

I'm currently living in a landed house (3 stories).

Would like to check can I still set-up mesh WIFI by only plugging the Deco directly into walled ethernet ports instead of directly into the modem / main router connected to the modem? Or there must always be a main deco connected directly to the modem/router connected to modem?

Thanks so much for the advice.

Hi, it is ok to connect the main Deco to the wall Ethernet port directly;

But please connect the laptop to the Ethernet port first to make sure it could provide internet service;

Thank you.
