Hello, I have a problem with my the Deco. I have two routers. One is the main router which is connected to the internet so it is the Gateway. The Deco is connected to this one(via wifi) so it is in  the same room as the main router and there is also another deco  in the living room. To the main router(gateway) is connected a printer via ethernet cable. The problem is that I want both the gateway and the Deco network to  have the printer. Because if I go in the living room,  the gateway has a really bad connection, this was the main reason why I bought the Deco to be able to bring the wifi in  other rooms of my house. Can you please help ? If you need more information please ask away

 

Thank you

 

Best regards

To have what you ask, configure Deco mesh to run in Access Point mode: Switching a Deco to Access Point (AP) Mode

Just follow Steps 1 to 3 from the document I provided, you do not need to do anything else.
