Model: Deco M5

Hardware Version: V3

Firmware Version: 1.5.1

Recently installed some M5's in a family members house to improve there WiFi.

All went fine and a massive improvement in WiFi apart from with there sky q box.

Used M5s several times before without any issues but

1: when putting the M5's in access point mode the sky q box does not connect properly. Go.though the process of connecting the sky q but none of the online functions ever work. Sky q hub is the router. All other decided connected to the deco work fine.

2: when deco in router mode sky q connects and works fine for a few minutes then totally locks the box up. Only pulling the power fixes it

@TP-Link

Have recently got Deco M5 & a week later Sky Q. I can connect to Deco via Wifi but the Sky Q freezes after around 10 to 30 mins & you are unable to use remote in anyway, only solution is to unplug & start again.

I have resorted to using house Plusnet wifi & Sky Q now works fine but this was not why I purchased the Deco system, to then have to totally ignore it to use my devices.

Sky Q linked to Deco via Wifi as via ethernet not really an option due to location of Deco discs.

Does anyone know how I can link Sky Q to my Deco M5 without former freezing entirely?

Thanks
