Model: Deco XE75 Pro  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I just bought this deco mesh system and I had a home assistant server running off a switch that was getting internet fed from my old router. I was wondering if I could run a cable from the modem to the switch and the switch to the router? I dont know if that is a good or bad idea. After switching routers my homeassistant server has basically been rendered unusable, I cant access the server from my web browser on my computer and I am very limited to what I can do with it on my phone. The server is also very slow as well. Any tips for that also?

Hi, Maybe you could try the following network diagram:

ISP modem---main Deco XE75 Pro---switch---Home Assistant server

Usually, the router or Deco should be connected directly to the ISP modem, and then to a switch to extend more Ethernet ports.

Best regards.
