1 - i have in my house a modem/router with many devices connected in lan... so is better tha deco is set as Router or AP ?
2 - there is the possibility to call wifi 2.4Ghz with a nameX and wifi 5.0 Ghz with a nemaY ?
3 - Is possible use config trough web page and not with phone...i try ip of my deco (router) but nothing load ?
4 - why when i search to load a image of my profile i received a warnig that the phone or tablet is offline
while i am connect without problem ??
Thank
Hispa
I can give you answers for your first three questions.
1 - i have in my house a modem/router with many devices connected in lan... so is better tha deco is set as Router or AP ?
I would recommend setting Deco as AP. If you have many devices it makes sense to offload network management (IP address allocation, blacklist, etc.) to router and have X20 provide WiFi coverage only.
2 - there is the possibility to call wifi 2.4Ghz with a nameX and wifi 5.0 Ghz with a nemaY ?
Yes, there is. As long as you don't need Guest Network, you can use it to split WiFi bands, just like I did at my house. Example of WiFi configuration:
Note "Isolated From Main Network" at the bottom - turn that off like I did for my home network and all devices on Guest and Main network can talk to each other.
3 - Is possible use config trough web page and not with phone...i try ip of my deco (router) but nothing load ?
Deco configuration is done through the app. There is Web interface, but it is to view logs, CPU load, RAM utilization and do manual firmware upgrade. Not for configuration.
