Internet speeed had dropped on my M5, rebooted and seems to be better.  However in trying to solve the problem I found by connecting M5 to BT Openreach modem I couldn't get and internet conection.

 

Original set-up - M5 connect to ASUS router with wifi turned off - works fine until recent speed issue.

Connected to openreach modem - no internet.

 

How do I solve this if I want to ditch the ASUS router?

 

Thanks in advance

@Golfer2019 dependent on your ISP, you'll need the connection details like a username/password. You should have these stored on the ASUS. 

You'll also need to change the Decos to Router mode rather than AP mode if they aren't already.
