Deco S7 system unstable after adding X10 unit
Hi
My Deco S7 system (3 x S7) have worked quite well for some time, but in one specific area of the house the coverage was not good enough.
So I bought a couple of X10 units, but they do not work that well together.
I have tried to keep one S7 as the primary unit (one of the remaining S7 is wired to the primary unit, the third wireless), just adding one X10 to the current setup.
But after adding the X10 the Internet access drops, keep toggling on and off until I disconnect power to the X10.
Yesterday, after disconnecting power to the new X10, I noticed that I had a very high WiFi net called "Deco_x..." running, about 20dB higher than my regular WiFi net.
After investigation, I could confirm that it was my wired old S7 that had changed name from "Tapo_" to "Deco_" and boosted the output power.
After removing and restoring power to the wired S7, the normal name and output power was back.
The first time I tried to add the X10, I was asked if I wanted to have the X10 as a primary unit but since I use all RJ45-ports on the primary S7 I refused.
Is that maybe the reason?
