Deco M5 device connection pretence issue.
Setting up Deco M5 with 2 additional modes. I have set up a main M5 unit with 2 nodes one of which is downstairs. When I realised that devices do not automatically choose nearest node (no idea why this doesn't happen as it really should), I manually chose the the node closest in the app.
As soon as the app moves the laptop (Windows 11 all updates) to the closest node, the laptop cannot reconnect as it says the password is incorrect.
I have tried changing the password via the app, clearing/forget wifi network and reconnecting. Additionally when my partner tried to connect on her device for the first time with the 'new' password it won't let her connect saying 'imcorrect' password.
I have issues with this system straight out of the box with with poor speeds and devices around the house ignoring the nearest node and trying to connect to the main node farthest away.
The original ISP modem is actually faster at this stage. (1G Fibre)So far not an impressive start.
For an out of the box experience this has been pretty poor.
Can anyone assist?
