Model: Deco X20  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Hi,

I'm setting up a mesh network using 4 Deco X20 routers in AP mode. They will be connected to an R605 which will be connected to 2 modens, one from a fiber optic isp and another one from starlink.

 

The base will connect via lan to the R605, and 2 nodes will connect via wifi to each other.

 

Starlink -->

Fiber ISP -->  R605  --> X20 Base~~> X20 ~~>X20

 

The 4th node needs to be connected via Lan. Should I connect it to the R605 directly or to the X20 base? 
 

Conencting to the R605 skips a step so I imagine it would improve latency and avoid a possible bottleneck, since all the traffic from all the X20 routers will go through it.

 

However, I want the 4th router to be part of the mesh network. Would it still be in the mesh network if I connect it directly to the R605.


 

Further details: there will be a server and an NVR connected to the network as well.

You should connect 4th node to the R605 directly. That X20 will still be part of the mesh network. 

 

This will only work with Deco mesh running in AP mode.
