Conflicting devices between fibre ONT and Powerline (tp-link)
I had 2 devices connected to my M5 Deco using both the WAN/LAN ports. M5 is set up at a Router.
1. ONT fibre
2. TP-LINK AC1300 Powerline
After a power outage, the DECO M5 is unable to find out which devices (1 or 2) is the ONT Fibre to grab the WAN address.
LED remains RED.
Solution:
1. Remove the TP-LINK powerline first. Only the ONT and the M5 to switch on first. Plug the network cable back in the powerline.
2. Use another router with a DEDICATED WAN port and connect the M5 as an AP/repeater.
3.

I hope TP-Link can come out with a firmware that fixes this issue so i can have 1 less device running at home.
