Model: Deco XE75 Pro  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.2.3 Build 20231011 Rel. 60272

I have a Deco XE75 Pro setup for my fiber network. Connected to it are two Switches with 3 access points. As soon as I switch to a(nother) AP the Deco doesn't recognise my phone anymore and alerts me of a new device on the network. How can I change the configuration to using MAC addresses instead of IP addresses? Thank you in advance.

This is what you need to do on iPhone to stop that issue from happening:

 

1. Open the Settings app and connect to a Deco mesh network
2. Tap the (i) icon next to the network
3. Toggle Private Address to Off
4. Return to Wi-Fi Settings and turn Wi-Fi off and back on again
