Hello everyone, 

 

I'm having some issues with my Deco P9 mesh setup. 

 

I have three Deco units

1. Attached to the router, front of the house, downstairs

2. In the kitchen, back of the house, downstairs

3. In a garden room, approximately x meters from the kitchen deco. 

 

The deco app sees all three, and as you would expect, they chain off each other in the order above. However, Decos 1 and 2 connect using powerline, and Decos 2-3 use WiFi. This is problematic, as the signal is too weak, abs basically it doesn't work. 

 

All have been update, and confirmed to be on the same, most recent, firmware. The entire network had been rebooted a few times. Still the last node refuses to connect with powerline. 

 

As a test, I have an ancient pair of Homeplugs, over 10 years old. These do work between the router and garden building just fine!

 

Any help much appreciated, right now I've spent £150 and don't have a working mesh, so I'm just using my same old bog standard router WiFi - which is a bit of a shame!
