Hi, 

 

Here's a setup diagram 

 

ISP ROUTER -> MAIN DECO -----(wireless)-----> CHILD DECO ----(wired)----> Secondary router

 

Can I connect a secondary router to the child deco which has a wireless backhaul to the main deco?

 

Planning this with X60. Please let me know. Secondary router will function in "AP" mode.

 

Thanks.

Hi, welcome to the community.

It should work. As for using the "Secondary router", have you ever considered adding one more Deco, such as an extra Deco X60/X10?

I'm sure it would be better to have all units from Deco families for easy management.

 

Thank you very much and best regards.

  @David-TP Thank you for confirming, I have considered but it basically is about extending the connectivity from one floor to another floor which is 2 floors away. So, I'll have to pull this via an ethernet cable and another router.
