Hi,

 

I keep finding that my Deco units do not generally seem to 'chain' together. Instead they all seem to want to connect to my main Deco directly, ignoring other, closer, Deco units.

 

When googling I see people mention that you can change the connection preference of a Deco unit from Auto and select a specific unit to use but I don't see this option in my Deco app. 

 

Does anybody have a way to force each unit to connect to a specific other unit in preference?

If what you have in your Deco mesh is Deco M4 and S4, you will need to manually install beta firmware to enable that feature, more about it here: https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/651248
