Model: Deco M4  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Newbie here so probably silly question. I have Deco M4 (1 main plus 3 clients) which I've been able to successully install in Access Point Mode throughout a solid brick and concrete 2 story home. Everyhing checks out ok. So here's the question. When I connect a device (ie iphone, Apple TV, Mac Mini, WiFi printer etc) to WiFi do I use the SSID created for the Deco network, or my main router SSID? Grateful for any input please. Many thanks. Shazza

When you run Deco mesh in Access Point, it is recommended to turn off main router WiFi with its SSID. When you do that, your question will have an obvious answer as there will be only one SSID to connect to: your Deco mesh SSID.
