Model: Deco X60  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version:

I want to connect the main deco with a switch and the rest of the decos will be daisy chained with the main deco. I intend to use ethernet backhaul to connect the decos.

The topology will be as follows :

 

Internet ----> Main Router ----> Switch ----> Main Deco ----> Deco 1 ----> Deco 2

Note : All the connections will be made via Cat6 cable. 

 

Decos will be used to connect phones, laptops and TVs to the internet wirelessly. The desktops and NAS will be connected to the switch directly via Cat6 cable. 

 

My questions are  :

 

1) Will the above mentioned topology work ?

2) What mode should the decos be in for it to work ? Router or AP mode ?

3) Will all the devices that are connected to network be able to communicate with each other ? For example will a laptop connected via Deco be able to communicate with the NAS that is connected to the switch ?
