I bought a DECO X50 2pack recently and actually, I like it. To set it up I disabled the WIFI on my modem. However, I have one big problem. The DECO wired IP address points are not in the range of my modem. I was a bit surprised because this is probably a major problem for a lot of users.

I have a Synology NAS running on a reserved IP address I have a VU+ satellite receiver running on a reserved IP address on my network and would like to see my laptops communicating on a Windows Home system. All this is now a problem.

I cannot change to a "Modem only" mode on my Virgin Media  HUB2 because I have loads of forwarding set up and reserved IP addresses which I would lose.

With the Access Point mode can I use the DECO wired points with the modem DHCP range?
