Hi everyone

 

I actually have an M5 system at home with one of them as a router (just behind the fai router).

 

As I have more than 100 devices online, the m5 router is struggling managing all this.

 

I was thinking upgrading that one to an x60 or x90, but not sure if it will solve the problem and they don't sell as single units...

 

Also I don't need wifi at that particular location. Is there any router compatible with the deco mesh so that I can Co trol and manage all devices on deco app ?

Hi, is your Fai router powerful enough for 100 devices? If yes, we can change M5 into access point mode and leave Fai router as the DHCP/DNS server for the whole network, then connect all the wireless devices to Deco.

Currently, our Archer routers use different Mesh protocols OneMesh or EasyMesh , and could not be managed via Deco APP.

 

Or I think you could consider our Bussiness level router and set up the network like:

Main Bussiness router---a 5/8 ports switch--- several M5 Deco nodes(in AP mode and all wired to the switch.)

 

Thank you very much.

Wait for your reply.

best regards.

Hi David

 

If I do that, I loose parental co tools functionality over deco app... that is why routing needs to go through a TP router compatible Mesh or manageable by deco app I believe...
