deco m4 AP mode. 2 network. Delete or not delete?

2024-08-07 15:06:04

Tags: #Network Connectivity #Access Point Mode

Model: Deco M4

Hardware Version:

Firmware Version:

After configuration in AP mode, there are two wifi networks remaining. I only want one but it must cast from the router and the AP.

They stand each at THE good place. I cannot have wifi in my entire house without their casting

Sorry for my language/writings, i'm not used to speak/write in english

Hi, Thank you very much for the feedback.

Do you mean that, there are two Wi-Fi SSIDs, one from the ISP Wi-Fi router, and the other from Deco M4?

If yes, I think you could disable the Wi-Fi on the ISP router and leave the Mesh Wi-Fi of M4 only.

Best regards.

Thanks for your reaction.

Indeed, I've 2 wifi, like you mentionned. The tp'link's one is created from the installation of the m4. But I just wanted my orginal wifi with an AP.

If I delete the one from the ISP, How to get wifi near that box?

Hi, is the first main Deco M4 standing next to the ISP router box?

Or is your actual topology like:

ISP router box(Wi-Fi enabled)--------central switch------------Deco M4(Main)

\-----------Deco M4 satellite#1

\-----------Deco M4 satellite#2

Each Deco M4 is located in the separate room.

The SSID of Deco M4 could also be set the same as the ISP router. Since the WiFi of ISP router box is not part for Deco Mesh, you might still experience small hiccups when roaming from the ISP router to Deco.

Best regards.

Thanks for your response.

My topology is really simple : ISP router box(Wi-Fi 1 enabled)--------cable------------Deco M4 (AP mode and wifi 2 provider).

Yes I took your words .

Each one is opposate in the house. Router at the ground floor and the M4 at the basement for my desk.
