Model: Deco X50  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I already have 3 Decos, 2 in ground floor and 1 on second floor. And found the signal on second floor is low some point, So can we add more Deco on second floor? Same model or can use different model?

Hi,

 

Yes, you can add more Deco units in the current Deco work.

In most cases, for optimal performance, we recommend no more than 6 Decos in a single network.

 

All Deco models can work together, so it doesn't matter whether you add the same model or not. Can different Deco models work together?

All Deco can work together, but you'll get most compatible with your Deco mesh from X-series, such as X10, X20 and so on.

 

If you want consistent hardware, stay with X50s by adding another X50. 

 

By the way, check if Connection Preference feature is available in your Deco mesh: Connection Preference: Customize Your Preferred Signal Source

If it is, it may become useful when you add more Deco on 2nd floor. You can configure that new Deco to connect to either nearby Deco on ground floor, or to Deco you already have on 2nd floor and see which connection is better.

This will only work if new Deco also supports Connection Preference feature. List of Deco models that do is in the link I provided.
