I switched from TP-Link A7 AC1750 to DECO M4 Mesh. I had a USB storage key in A7 for file sharing on my network. There is no USB port on Deco M4. Can I connect the A7 to the M4 ethernet port so that users on the network can access the USB storage? If that is doable, how should I configure the A7?

Hi,

 

Yes, it can work this way.

It is recommended to set the Archer A7 to AP mode to avoid any double NAT issues.

And then you can use the A7's IP address to access it directly.
