I just installed a Deco AX3000 mesh system and instructions had me create a new network

 

Now I have two Wi-Fi networks.  I want to install new Ring lights so which network do I use, original or the new mesh system?

 

Do I need both Wi-Fi networks?  Can I delete the original?  Should I?  Please advise what I should do regarding these 2 networks. 
 

thanks

The simple answer is YES, delete the original Wi-Fi network SSID and turn off the radios.  If you want various devices to work smoothly and connect correctly avoiding any NAT confusion, you should only have one Wi-Fi SSID - your new Deco Mesh.
