Model: Deco M9 Plus  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

So this is an easy one I can't believe this is not allowed or very hidden. 

 

How do I keep the LAN alive between the router and the different decos and devices even if there's no Internet? 

 

So when there's no Internet at least I can still watch movies via Lan! :'(

It seemed like when there is no internet, the ISP modem did not assign an IP address for Deco anymore-WAN/LAN auto-sensing. You could try to move the LAN devices behind a nearby satellite DECO.

  @Heidi_Alp not sure what you mean by a nearby satellite DECO.


What I currently have setup is


ISP -> FTTH ROUTER -> Multiple DECO9 -> both wired LAN and WIFI LAN.


My complain is that if there's no Internet connection, the whole LAN goes down because of the cloud service trying to manage everything. That makes no sense and there should be a side path for these cases!! It's uterly ridiculous!!

 

The technology is there so I know this is a software capped decision and it is VERY LAME.
