Model: Deco E4  
Hardware Version: V7
Firmware Version:

I have bought deco e4 and I have archer c6 and 300mbps plan, now through deco e4 the speed is not crossing 100mbps, heard that when the main connection is connected through Ethernet it support only below 100mbps, is there any way i can have archer c6 as main and the other deco as satellite ? or else any other solution to get the actual speed from the deco?

Hi, welcome to the community.

For Deco E4. It has 2× 10/100 Mbps Ports so its maximum Ethernet speed is up to 100m/s.

And the main Deco has to be wired to the Archer C6. So you might need to update Deco E4 to a different model, like Deco M4/S4 whose Ethernet ports are 1G/s.

 

Thank you very much.

Best regards.

Hi David,

Will it work if I upgrade only my main deco e4 to M4 and rest I can use the same e4 for 1G/s speed?

The plan is Deco M4 have to be wired to archer c6 and the rest of the deco e4 can be connected to M4 wirelessly so that I can have 1g/s speed all over the coverage. Am I right?

Hi, when E4 is wirelessly connected to M4, it is indeed no longer under the limitation of Ethernet ports.

But "1G/s all over the coverage" is still not the case.  Wi-Fi communication is not solid as an Ethernet connection and there would always be a speed loss due to Wi-Fi interference. 

For more details, you could have a look at this link:

Why is my satellite Deco unit not getting the same speed as the main Deco?

Best regards.

Ok thanks for the info, but anyway upgrading like this in the current setup will give me a better speed than which I have now in the other deco e4, right?
