DECO M9 and Vive VR
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I have just set up a DECO M9 Plus Mesh in router mode linked to my Archer VR600 router. I have a Wifi printer connected to the DECO network.
I also have a PC connected to my VIVE VR Setup. This uses a TPCAST wireless adapter.
My main LAN is a 192.168.1.0 network, The TPCAST uses a 192.168.144.0 network which routes through to my main network no problem. The new DECO setup uses a 192.168.68.0 network. This too routes from my main 192.168.1.0 network with no problem.
My issue is accessing my printer (on the DECO network) from my VIVE PC (on the TPCAST network). It just won't!
Essentially I have 3 LANs: LAN A, LAN B, LAN C.
LAN A routes to LAN B and LAN B routes to LAN C but I can't get LAN A to route to LAN C
Can anyone help?

Thanks for your reply.
In summary, the current network diagram is like Archer VR600(192/168.1.0 router mode but with wifi off) -- (WAN port) P CAST (192.168.144.0)--PC
--Deco M9 plus (192.168.68.0)--printer.
It is normal that the printer and PC cannot access each other cause they are in the different subnet.
You can try to open the port for the printer on the Deco M9 plus and use the PC to acces it, vice versa.
Or you can connect the PC to the Deco M9 plus directly and make them in the same subnet so that they can access each other .
Or you can connect the TP cast to the Deco M9 plus and configure it as an access point.
May it help and have a nice day.

What is the current network diagram? How do you connect these devices together?
What is the current operation mode of Archer VR600? Is it bridge or modem router now?
With VIVE PC connected to the Deco M9 plus directly, can you access the wifi printer?
Good day.

Hi
I have 3 Networks, A, B, C
Network A (192.168.1.0). This is my main, wired network and is connected to the internet
Network B (192.168.144.0) Is my TP Cast/Vive Headset Network. It's WAN port is wired to Network A
Network C (192.168.68.0) Is my DECO M9 Network. It is wired to Network A Using one of the 2 Ethernet ports on the DECO unit. There appears to be no WAN port as such on the DECO
So, B and C are each wired to A but there is no direct connection between B and C
Networks B and C can each access teh internet and connected devices on Network A
I have the PC running the Vive wired into Network B
I have a Canon Printer connected wirelessly to Network C
I am trying to get the PC on B to connect to the Printer on C
I hope this is clear

@TP-DW Thanks for your advice. i think putting the PC onto the DECO network via a wifi dongle might be simplest

Thanks for your reply.
It is indeed the simplest/easiest way to make them access each other by putting PC to the Deco directly.
You can give it a go and make them work.
If need more help, do not hesitate to contact us.
Good day.
