Model: Deco XE75 Pro  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I'm thinking of buying a Deco XE75 Pro mesh system but I have a couple of questions about the router that I do not seem to be able to find the answers to, namely;

 

1) Is there a "normal" web based interface for the router? IOW Can i connect to the router with a PC browser via an "http://192.168.x.x/" URL?

 

2) Does the router allow for "MAC Filtering"? This feature was called "Wireless Card Access List" on some of the older Netgear routers. I want to grant access to only those clients which have known MAC addresses.

 

Thanks in advance for any assistance or insight that you can offer.

  @Stetho There is technically a web interface, although they mention its in the early stages so it's not great at the moment and does very basic stuff.
But for setup you need to use the phone app, which was a little strange at first, but I'm trusting they'll get to a better web interface. For now I'm just using the iOS app, because it's far less frustrating.

  @WYLDSTALLYNS  Many thanks for that info. 

 

Does the iOS interface allow for MAC Filtering? I want to be able to restrict my wifi access to only MAC Addresses that I know & trust.

 

Thanks again.

  @Stetho,

Most configuration is done via the app, with the web interface being mainly for manual firmware updates and basic monitoring / reporting.

 

For the features that you are specifically looking for, you will need to wait for your model to receive the features via a  firmware update. Whitelisting was only just recently announced as an upcoming feature for Decos: Deco 1.9.0 Feature Overview: Wi-Fi Access Control, Matter, Local Only Modes (Coming Soon)

  @Riley_S  Thanks for the upcoming feature info.

 

I didn't realize that I was taking about a feature generally referred to as "Whitelisting". Learning is a lifelong experience. smiley
