Can anybody help or advise please? I have tried another mesh wi-fi product (Google Wi-Fi), and whilst being really impressed with the product in general, found that it did not support the BT TV service in the UK. I think "multicast" support is required or something along those lines to support the internet enabled/delivered TV service. Will the Deco support this service and hence the BT TV service over the mesh wifi network? Many thanks.

If BT TV service is a common multicast service, then Deco M5 should support.

Do you know if BT requires special settings for its TV service?

The Google Wi-fi threads indicate that “IGMP snooping/multicasting support” is needed, and imply that mesh Wi-fi products are unlikely to support this by default. I am sorry that I do not know or understand the technicalities of this.

@TJArnfield In case of Deco, you can enable IGMP from web ui (Advanced> system> system parameters)

Just a M4 (2-pack) user who regrets buying it
