Hi everyone, I would like to hear from the experts out there.

Hi have a X10 mesh system with 3 units and I have a router provided by my cable TV provider.

 

When I first installed the router we passed network cables to 2 oposite areas of the house.

 

When I first set up the mesh system, i connected the main unit to one of these cables, and I connected the other units in different areas.

 

The 3rd unit is actually in the room where I also have a network cable. If I could make this unit also a main, I could provide a better signal for that area.

Is this possible ?

@NNPOLIM There's only one "main" Deco

Just a M4 (2-pack) user who regrets buying it

Hi, ImtiazAli is right and there is only one main Deco in a Mesh system. If you want to connect two or three Deco units directly to the ISP router via Ethernet cables, you might just need to set Deco into "Access Point " mode:

Thank you very much and best regards.
