Model: Deco M5  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 1.6.5 Build 20230110 Rel. 41561
Having problems with my mesh, even though I have a network cable, from the fiber converter to my router. Then a cable runs from the router to the first mesh, which is also the primary one. Under settings I have WiFi router. If I change to AP, the whole network dies. in my world it should be AP who is there right? I just want to improve the wifi in the house, so it doesn't lose speed and gets coverage in the whole house?

Hi, May I know the model number of your main router?

Have you tried to reboot Deco once after switching to AP mode?

By the way, do you have any devices that are connected directly to the fiber main router? If yes, are they still woking well after Deco switched to AP mode?

Wait for your reply.

Best regards.

With Deco mesh consisting of M5, you should be able to configure altan Satellite Deco to connect to hall Satellite Deco. See How to select a preferred signal source on the Deco App
