Model :

Hardware Version :

Firmware Version :

ISP :

Something I've noticed. The Deco doesn't maintain an internal network if the internet goes down. Is this supposed to happen?

I have same behaviour with my Deco's. If ISP/Internet down, Wifi is also down - think this is a bug

The main Deco is on default router mode or AP mode?

I heard that wifi only disappear when wan IP address becomes 0.0.0.0. that's how it is designed but I don't really understand why. Maybe you can give them feedback.

I can confirm this issue I also experienced it a couple of times.

Maybe there is a good reason for it to do it when wan becomes 0.0.0.0 but would be very handy that the network can recover automatically.

Maybe it is possible to build in an "auto-retry" every x minutes or so.
