Model: Deco M4  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 1.6.2

Hi all,

 

I have 3 M4 towers and I had connect them to a BT hub creating a wifi mesh. I had the wifi switched of in the BT hub so effectively using it only as a modem.

 

I have recently changed to Gigaclear which is FTTH, and they have installed an ONT where the fibre terminates and from there ethernet cable to a gigaclear provided and configured Linksys MX5500 that is the router and also provides wifi.

 

For now i have connected my deco M4 to the MX5500 in AP mode and it's working great, however I would like to setup my main Deco as router and connect straight into ONT of gigaclear, effectively not using the Linksys MX5500.

 

Has anyone done that and can you please share the mode required for the M4 and if there is any username or password required?

 

Thanks for your help

from what I've seen online you should be able to do this, change the main Deco to router mode and then choose Dynamic IP for connection type.
