Hi guys, I have 3 decos M5 operating in my house and I want to extend the signal to another part of the house.

 

Since is not so important to have the wifi there, I thought about buying cheap decos to cover the area, like the E3 or E4.

 

What do you think of that? Does that have any impact on the M5 part of the network? Any opinions?

Hello,

 

You can add the Deco E4 or E3 into the same mesh network as the existing M5 network and remember to choose the M5 as the main Deco and connect it to the modem/gateway.

For more details when adding different models into the same mesh network, please refer to the below link:

Hopefully, that answers your question but let us know if you need more details.
