What to do with wifi on my EX220 router after adding the Deco X50 mesh

Model: Deco X50  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 1.5.5 build 20240718 rel 44414

I have added 3 Deco X50s (AP) to my existing network but am having some connectivity issues.

 

I believe it is probably due to the wifi on deco and wifi on router both having the same ssid.

 

If this is the case, should I should switch wifi off on the router or maybe give it another SSID?

 

I also have the AP and Router sitting next to each other.

 

Any advice much appreciated.

You should switch off the router WiFi. 

 

Also, change Deco mesh mode to Access Point and see if there are further improvements. If not, you can change it back to original Router mode just as easy.
