I have the deco ac1200 and need to configure this with existing spectrum router and modem and directions are not clear the order. I have a central hub in the house with wired connections on switch which the hard wired connections are needed. I need the deco to extend the wifi range but cannot eliminate any existing infrastructure. is the order:

modem > ISP router > deco?

modem > deco > ISP router?

ISP Router > modem > Deco?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated as I need to have the hard wired connections inplace and also need this deco to help withg house wifi

@FLAdude

No matter how many Deco units you have, one of them will at least need to be wired to a device to give wired internet.

Since you just want the Deco to extend your current network, set up the Deco then change the mode to AP Mode: https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/1842/

Go with: modem > ISP router > Deco
