Hi, 

 

I recently put in the Deco x60 mesh to replace the wifi from the virgin media box.

 

It all working fine and everything is connecting as it should but the wifi printer is now unreachable by my PC which is plugged in via ethernet. I can access the printers and print ok from mobiles and iPad, so I am happy that's all working as it should.

 

I can see that they are on 2 different subnets, I have tried changing the deco IP to match the PC subnet but it's saying the "LAN IP address and WAN IP address cannot be in the same subnet"

 

How do get the 2 subnets to talk to each other so the PC can print?

 

Thanks

The recommended solution is to configure Deco mesh to run in Access Point mode. This will make everything run on single subnet, which should make problem go away. How to set up Deco to work in Access Point mode
