Model: Deco M9 Plus  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I just started the Deco app on my iPhone (iOS 14.3). Right I get a message “Local network permission needed” and in the picture it shows a setting positioned after Bluetooth for "Local Network". However, this setting does not exist on my phone. What am I supposed to do?

Hi, if there is no separate option for the local network, it might be enabled already and you could go back to the Deco APP and choose "I have already enabled".

Thank you very much.

I went through the FAQs but still can not see the setting on my phone. :(

@pedritorres 

Hi, may I know the model number and operating system of your iPhone?

How about the Deco APP version on the smartphone?

Could you please refer to the picture on this link and is it the same as your case?

@hellopb 

Hi, maybe it has been enabled already。

Could you please refer to the recommended solution to have a look?

If you got any error messages, please feel free to post them here.

Thank you.

I have this issue too.  Local network access is not "already enabled".

 

now what?

@RichBa 

Hi, It might be enabled already.

And if you skip the notice during setup, will you be able to finish the setup?

Thank you.

@TP-Link 

yes setup completes but any of the features that require LAN access aren't enabled. Like the OP, Deco does not show up on the list of apps with local access, nor do I see that switch in the Deco settings section. Apple support site would have you believe that Deco is not requesting access from iOS.
