Adding a new node Deco M5
Hi
I need to add a node (maybe 2) to my Deco M5 mesh system. As this model is being superseded I was thinking of an X10.
Is this suitable and if I buy a single should I use it as the base unit?
Hope that makes sense and thanks in adva

@Portway The Deco X10 should be compatible with your existing Deco mesh.
It is generally recommended to use the most recent Deco as main Deco, but you might decide to install the X10 where you require the best wifi performance.

X10 is good additions on hardware side. The thing to consider is X10 firmware appears to be one version behind M5's. If you are using one of the following features in your Deco mesh you may consider to choose different Deco model than X10:
- Static Route.
- IoT network.
- VPN Server/Client
If you add X10 to your M5s, these feature will become unavailable in Deco app.
If you are not using them, X10 could be good addition.

@Alexandre.
That's great. Thank you.
I'm not using any of those features so the X10 should be good.
I replied to your DM as well
