Access Point Mode Questions
Hello there I hope you can help this is my first post! I recently set up 2 Deco M5 and 2 M9 Plus units in Access Point Mode as I want my new SKY Router to act as the Router not the main Deco M9 unit. On set up using the app it has asked me to create a network and I have done that, all Decos are now connected. I now see that if I try to connect any device to my internet I have 2 wifi options, the network name assigned by my SKY Router and the new Deco Network Ive created. Is this correct will the 2 exist side by side with each other? I understood that in APM it just boosts my existing wifi so Im not sure which one to connect to. Is the original ISP network generated by the router still active along with the same network boosted via DECO as a separate network? I could set the network name and passwords to be the same but ultimately does that mean that 2 seprarte networks will still exist. I though the whole point of using Access Point Mode over Router mode was that you didn't have 2 Mesh Networks competing with each other (especially with SKY and issues with connecting to miniboxes) Many thanks I hope you can advise.
