Model: Deco M9 Plus

Hardware Version:

Firmware Version:

Hi All,

Sorry for such a basic question but I cannot find an answer in the forums :)

I have the Deco M( Plus system. The main conrollign deco of course only has 2 Ethernet ports, 1 which needs to be used for connection to the internet router and other presently utilised for my Sonos Bridge. I have just purchase a Hue Systsm witht e bridge, which also needs a wired connection to the controlling Deco.

It it possible to add a switch to the deco (such as this : https://www.tp-link.com/us/home-networking/5-port-switch/ls1005g/) and then use the switch to connect the Birdges?

Cheers

Nick

@nickwalsh001

Hello, you can add an unmanaged switch behind the Deco M9 plus to provide more ethernet connection for wired devices.

May it help.
