Hello all,

First time I'm using this forum, which usually means there's something wrong. ;-)

Anyway, we have a bungalow house with 5 Deco M5 WiFi points all across the house from the separated garage until the living room. It's quite a large house but the coverage of the Deco's is very well. We've been having some issues with the Deco M5 over the last few months. Sometimes the internet doesn't connect, iPhones don't connect and when it's connected it's very unstable and slow. Now, I've been doing some troubleshooting and now I've changed the mode from Router to Access point. First of all, I expected the Deco's to copy the main router's WiFi but they kept the TP-Link seperated WiFi, which is fine to me, as that means I don't have to reconnect all devices across the house. Secondly, and that is something I really don't understand, the internet seems much quicker and I can't figure out why, or what was the problem in the first place. Any ideas? I do like the fact that there's extra protection in Router mode, especially with a small one of us running around here. Would that be the issue perhaps?
