Hi, Thank you for the update.
Would you mind starting a new thread about your case with the following information?
(PS: I have sent my email address and would you mind sending the whole logs to my email.)
1. You mentioned that All the Deco showed red color. Was the main Deco also red?
2. Did all 41 Decos work under the same Mesh network?
3. Is Deco on the wireless router mode or access point?
4. Could you please draw me a picture of the whole network topology? And did you use an Ethernet switch to set up the Ethernet backhaul?
---if yes, what are the model numbers of the switch?

PS: i didnot got any MSG from you . please send your email again and tell me how can i download all the logs to you .
1. You mentioned that All the Deco showed red color. Was the main Deco also red?
-- The main deco is green and showing in the deco app without any issue . Only slave deco showing red ligh indicator and also red in the app
2. Did all 41 Decos work under the same Mesh network?
-- Yes , Also Same Vlan and same subnet and all connected using ethernet
3. Is Deco on the wireless router mode or access point?
--Access point
4- its a simple diagram 1 Cisco SG500-52P switch connected to 4 SG300-52P . no links between these SG300-52P from each others . so the SG500-52P working as center point and all other 4 switches connect to it
i attached a pic for the network . put in mind that each edge switch has 10 Deco units
