Model: Deco S7   Archer AX1800  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.4.5

Hi all,

I recently purchased a Deco S7 mesh system and I already have a TP-Link Archer AX1800 Wi-Fi 6 router set up as my main router. I’m wondering if it’s possible to integrate the Deco S7 units with the AX1800 in a mesh setup.

Specifically, I’d like to know:

  • Can the Deco S7 act as satellite units to extend the Wi-Fi coverage from my AX1800 router?
  • Will they all work together seamlessly in one mesh network, even though the AX1800 supports Wi-Fi 6 and Deco S7 is Wi-Fi 5?
  • Are there any specific settings I need to configure to ensure compatibility?

Any advice or steps on how to achieve this would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,

 

Deco S7 can be connect to the AX1800 to extend the network. To avoid double NAT issue, you can set it as AP mode. 

But it cannot build Mesh network with Archer AX1800 router.
