DECO M4 Problem on AP Mode

Model: Deco M4

Hardware Version: V2

Firmware Version:

Hi there!!!

I'm using the Deco M4 model for the last 1 week. Recently I have configured it on AP mode. But unfortunately, few of my devices can connect to the internet getting IP from my DHCP server but few of my devices can't connect to the internet and get IP from Deco. I have configured it as an AP mode, but I can't use the internet from few of my devices. What's the problem?

as I configured it an AP mode the LEDs on Deco are red

Hey

In AP (access point) mode the Deco nodes don't connect or communicate via WiFi, instead they look to be connected back to the main ISP Router or Switch via a LAN cable

Are all your Deco nodes cabled? If not you will need to switch back to Router mode so they can talk wirelessly again.

@Alve_Hasan

Deco can use the Wireless backhaul for Access Point or Router mode, whatever is suitable for you

If you are getting a an IP from Deco then one of your nodes is in Router mode, if you are running Access Point mode all the IP addresses should be handled by the ISP Router not the deco
