Feature Request: Setup an AP without signup

2020-04-14 22:24:28

Model: Deco M9 Plus

Hardware Version: V1

Firmware Version:

Why is it not possible to set up these units as a dumb but powefull Access Point without being forced to use an email address / signup / sign in polling? i.e. possible packet sniffing.

You guys need to look at how an Apple access point setup worked 10 years ago.

Simple, anonymous, safe.

There is ABSOLUTELY no reason why we should be forced into a signup process to use this hardware.

@CasaP fully agreed, I would defenitely returned my units if it wouldn't have been possible to firewall the e4's after setting them up as AP's in a mesh.

It's a moot point now, I decided last night to buy the Netgear Orbi's instead. I will be returning these to Amazon at the end of the week.

They are clearly misleading customers in my opionin in relation to the sigh up & MESH / ONEMESH fiasco.

Then there is the lack of granular control.
