Plugging a computer into a Deco satellite
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Hi All,
I'm looking to buy a Deco (2 or 3-way) mesh eg. AC1200 but I can't conclusively establish whether I can connect an ethernet-only computer to one of the satellite units.
I know you can plug ethernet into the main unit, (like a normal router,) but my computer is on another floor and I can't practicably run cable (otherwise I wouldn't need a mesh!). I also know that the units themselves can be connected via ethernet, (backhaul?) which suggests that it can be done even if there's only one port per unit.
I'm just trying to get ethernet downstairs, even if part of the journey is via wifi. Can I do this using a satellite of a Deco ac1200? I have Googled and enqired myself blue in the face trying to confirm this, for any Deco model.Can anyone please help me?
