Model: Deco P9  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Hello all,

Can someone tell me if below setup of three Decos P9 will work? Basically, I have a router and switch and I would like to connect two decos directly to the switch using ethernet cable while the third one will use the powerline and Wi-Fi to connect to one of them. Also, if possible I would prefer to use all decos in the AP mode to avoid segmenting network any further, and I won't mind if in this way I may lose some features such as QoS or parental control since I can configure my router for this purposes. My point is to make sure that in this specific setup the major features such as Seamless roaming (for all decos) as well as Ethernet backhaul (for decos connected directly to the switch), and Powerline/Wi-Fi backhaul (for decos connected via powerline and wifi) will work properly.

Hi, It will work and you need to set up Deco P9 to work in Access Point mode.

Thank you very much.

Best regards.

Sounds good to me. Also, I was wondering if there is a way to use some cheaper devices and I found the Deco S4 model. It seems to have the same major features as P9 (Powerline backhaul) so if I use S4 models instead of P9, will they work the same in my setup or S4 is missing something that would prevent it?

Hi, Deco S4 would work the same as Deco P9 but S4 does not support powerline backhaul, only Ethernet/ Wifi backhaul.

Best regards.
