That's not good as that's why I was going to use these. Doesn't look like you can forward ports either.

Oh great.. This is why I ordered it for this feature. It doesn't look like you can forward ports either. Guess I'm sending this device back.

Deco actually supports the Ethernet Backhaul feature.
However, you need to upgrade to the latest firmware version(170330) at first.

Yes ethernet backhaul is working. Hopefully they get the port forwarding fixed

As for port forwarding, it's not a problem but a new feature for Deco M5. It will soon be added in future firmware releases. Please pay attention to any firmware updates.
Thanks.

That's ok I took the system back. It was fast but I had Too many devices that wouldn't connect and no port forwarding. Parental controls didn't work either. I scheduled them but the system wouldn't pause anything.

1. Too many devices that wouldn't connect
May I know exactly what devices wouldn't connect?

2. Parental controls didn't work either.
Please tell me what kind of demand you want to achieve with Parental Control. And your detailed settings about that.

1. Netgear wnce2001 wouldn't connect, Brother Printer wouldn't connect, Carrier infinity Thermostat wouldn't connect


2. Time based bedtime parental control wouldn't pause the devices. I set up 3 different devices and none of them would pause.

Deco supports WPA/WPA2 as the wireless security type. Please make sure all these devices are WPA/WPA2 capable. If not, try to connect the device to Deco M5 with an Ethernet cable.

As we know, the bed time is the period during which devices cannot get internet access. The time setting is based on the time of your phone and will automatically switch to daylight mode according to actual location.
Please check this point. In addition, please also check that if the devices have automatically switch to other wifi signals or get cellular data.[COLOR=#333333]

1. All device support wpa/wpa2. You can't run a cable and connect it to air conditioner thermostat like a nest or the wnce2001. The printer I can connect with cable. 2. Phone time is accurate as it automatically updates the time from the towersLooks like y'all need some beta testers for this product
