Firmware Version: 1.20

Hallo,

 

I recently bought 3 Deco x50 units and have them connected to my Zyxel T56 router. At first it was configured in router mode and I changed it to access point mode.

I still see two Wifi networks: one directly from the Zyxel router and one from the Deco x50's. And so does some of my gear. :-)

Is that a normal situation for an mesh/access point configuration of did I do something wrong?

In case I doing something wrong please tell me what to do to fix it.

 

Thanks.

Kind regards,
Bert

This is normal. Deco mesh runs its own WiFi network even in Access Point mode. You should turn off Zyxel router WiFi.
