Nord VPN compatibility

Model: Deco M5

Hardware Version: V3

Firmware Version: 1.7.4 build 20231222 Rel. 63684

I was led to believe when I purchased my Deco M5 home mesh system that it was compatible with VPN setup (in particular Nord VPN). When I follow instructions to install the VPN using the Deco app or by logging into the mesh I cannot find the appropriate menu location under "Advanced" to do the installation.

The Deco app version is: 3.7.83

Is there a different version of the app that allows for VPN installation or was I misinformed about the capabilities of the Deco M5?

If the M5 is compatible, how do I install my VPN when neither the app nor the main login to the device does the correct setup menu?

Hi,

Deco M5 does not support VPN functions at present. That is why you cannot find the related settings on the Deco APP.

If the VPN function is needed, you can consider on other models that supports VPN.
