Wednesday
Model: Deco  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 1.5.5 Build 20240718 rel 44414

I have an EX220 with a Deco X50 set up in AP mode (plus 2 other wirelessly linked X50s)

 

I want to switch the X50 back to Router mode.

 

As I have never done this, I don't know what will happen next: -

 

Does it simply restart the Deco and all the clients pick up on wi-fi again?

 

If this works, should I then attempt to remove my EX220 and simply move the ethernet cable directly to the network provider WAN port - I'm happy to lose the ethernet ports on the back of the EX220 by doing this

Hi,

 

For your case, you need to set up the internet configuration on Deco devices. 

Here is a guidance for your reference: Deco Setup Walkthrough(For Deco X20/X60/X90/P9/M4/S4/E4/W2400 etc)
