need to disable dhcp
![](/avatar/avatar-18.png)
I run a server and a domain at home. My Domain is running my dhcp server and need to disable dhcp on the router. Access point mode is not an option. I am using this system as my main firewall. Will there be an update to disable dhcp? This is supposed to be a professional unit. I am disappointed in this unit my have to return it if tp-link can't fix this
Thanks

By "I am using this system as my main firewall.", do you mean that you require the Deco to have an isolated LAN IPv4 subnet, hence you require the Router mode of the Deco?
I do not believe you can disable DHCP on the Deco, except by running the Deco in AP mode.

@socoolone This feature (and various other basic features) has been requested over and over and over and they just don't care.

You're better off buying a proper router+firewall appliance and putting these in AP mode.

It is clearly marketed as a household appliance, I am surprised you expect it to be a "professional unit".
