Model: Deco M4  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

In AP Mode local device communication does not go through main router, There is no option for that to deactivate this behaviour. I want all traffic to go through main router. Need an option for that.

 

Why we need this feature?

Sometimes we have to block access to some device in lan for specific device or add firewall rule lan to lan communication.

Hi, Thank you very much for the feedback.

Does your main router support AP isolation or client isolation? If yes, I think, that even when Deco M4 is in AP mode, all the LAN devices can't communicate with each other and need to talk to the LAN Gateway(the main router)first.

I don't think Deco changed anything during the Client Local Communication through the Main Router.

Wait for your reply and best regards.

  @David-TP  No, If two device is connected under same wifi, and ping each other, deco is behaving like unmanaged switch. Those request not reaching main router.
