Trouble Setting up S3

2022-02-17 14:07:32

Model: Deco S4

Hardware Version:

Firmware Version:

After going through the set-up process and all ,looks good. However, when I attempt to locate the first unit I get a red light. Does one of the units need to remain wired to the modem?

@Aikenite

Yes, the main unit must stay connected to the source of internet. Look at Deco or any Mesh like a router with mulitple units. One always has to be connected to the source. The rest and for Deco that is up to 9 remote units can be wireless and other locations through out the house.
