Usually all it takes is connect device by Ethernet cable to Deco, and it'll work.
Two common scenario when it does not:
1. You have IPTV enabled and trying to connect computer to Deco Ethernet port with IPTV. Either connect computer to different Deco Ethernet port, or disable IPTV. More about IPTV is here: How to Configure IPTV function on Deco?
2. Your computer has static IP address configured in it. The solution would be to make it request IP address dynamically.
