how to connect multiples devices hard wired to the M9 - for one device i need a fixed IP adres
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I have an old Belkin WIFI router connected to the telenet router which i want to replace with Deco M9 plus mesh router.
But i have a couple of devices eg TV, digibox, fibaro controller etc which are connected wired and i want to keep it like this.
For my Fibaro hub i need a fixed IP adres.
My question is : can the mesh system handle my requirement eg by using a switch connected to one of the satelites or other device/configuration.
If so how can this be realised: software/hardware set up.
Before buying this system i need to be assured i get the functionality to cope with this.
So would appreciate some feedback on this.
Thanks and a happy new year.

@Rolbol Should work fine as a star network
You can give static IP to any device using DHCP Address reservation in the app.
I'm using a TP Link SG1008D gigabit switch exactly like shown in the star network above to hard wire my NVIDIA shield, PS4, Desktop PC, NAS. Works perfectly fine.
