Deco S4 Lack of ability to turn off DHCP

2020-07-21 21:30:09 - last edited 2020-10-31 04:00:53

Model: Deco S4

Hardware Version: V2

Firmware Version: 1.4.0 Build 20200628 Rel. 52605

It is not possible to deactivate the DHCP server. There are those of us that are more than happy to run our own DHCP servers on our networks and as a result we should be able turn off the built in DHCP server on the product. However, doing so may make it somewhat difficult (depending on the layer of management) of assigning a client to the main or guest network.

It should be noted that this does not affect the majority of users.

Hello,

Basically, you may configure the main Deco in an Access Point mode and you will be able to run your only DHCP server.

Currently, There is no plan to add the feature to enable/disable DHCP server on Deco units.

It is suggested to keep an eye on the Deco APP or official website for more updates.

Good days.
