Model: RE200  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Hello

 

I have a Deco mesh network in my house - E4 units.  Still, we have one room that is not working.  I also have an older RE200 range extender here, which apparently supports Mesh.  The router is also TPLink (Archer C50, not mesh compatible)

 

Is there a way to connect the RE200 to my Deco mesh network?

 

Thanks

 

Matt

@toomanymatts 

Range extenders of certain hardware versions support tp-link oneMesh (for RE200, only V4 and above), which  uses different Mesh technology from Deco's Mesh. 

So RE200 could connect to Deco's wifi only as a normal extender but could not join in Deco's Mesh , for details , please check this FAQ: 
Several questions about the OneMesh™ and Mesh:

You could still use the old RE200 as a normal wifi extender to work with Deco and test its performance first.
