Model: Deco X20-DSL  
Hardware Version: V20
Firmware Version: 1.0.4 Build 20210807

Hello. 

 

I recently purchased a Deco X20-DSL for my new NBN Fibre To The Premises (FTTP) connection in Australia.

 

When configuring the router for a FTTP connection it appears that you need to set the Deco to "Wi-Fi Router" mode, assumedly because the NBN Connection Box effectively manages the VDSLv2 modem functionality.

 

Is there any way to use the Deco parental controls etc. when using a FTTP connection? If I set the Deco to "DSL Modem Router" mode, the internet connection stops working.

 

Thanks

Paul

Deco X20 should support parental control on both wireless router and DSL modem router mode, but not in access point mode though.

So I think the parental control should be fine when Deco X20-DSL is on wireless router mode with NBN FTTP.

Thank you for the response. I have tinkered a bit more with the Deco app and have been able to apply some parental controls while the X20-DSL is on wireless router mode.
