Model: Deco X75  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 1.2.11

My Setup is as following:

 

  • TP Link ER8411 router 8 WAN/LAN and 2 SFP+ and 1 SFP ports
  • TL-SG2210MP 8 POE+ and 2 SFP+ ports
  • 5x Wired Deco X75 Pro
  • 1x Mesh connected Deco X75 Pro
  • Addidtional: OC200 Controler

 

 

The following ports are in use on the ER8411:

  1. Ethernet in (later this year should be SFP+ optical fiber I recon);
  2. Living room;
  3. Office room;
  4. Coridor (upstairs);
  5. Bedroom left;
  6. Bedroom right;
  7. NAS DS723+;
  8. TL-SG2210MP.

 

The Decos are devided over 2 floors (just to give an impression)

  1. Main wired Deco downstairs in the office or the technical room;
  2. One wired Deco in the living room;
  3. One mesh Deco close to the front door for covering IOT at the front;
  4. One wired Deco in the upstair corridor;
  5. One wired deco in the far left bedroom;
  6. One wired deco in the far right bedroom.

 

The 8 POE+ ports are used as following:

  1. Ethernet in;
  2. Camera 1;
  3. Camera 2;
  4. Camera 3;
  5. Camera 4;
  6. OC200;
  7. NAS DS723+.

 

I thought it would be plug and play but unfortunately it's giving be a headache after months of trying to get the proper setup. Should I use the SFP ports to connect devices (router -> switch or switch -> NAS) and free up ports? Or would replacing the switch by the TPLINK TLSG2016P be a better idea?

 

What setup would you create with this information? I'm not tech savvy, but I can follow instructions well to get to the best setup.

  @BasJS Hi, Welcome to the community.

The network topology seems fine. Have you set Deco XE75 Pro into Access Point mode?

If there are Ethernet ports available, I would recommend normal Ethernet ports.

Can you share more details about "it's giving me a headache after months of trying to get the proper setup" so that I can check whether some adjustment needs to be made?

Thank you very much and best regards.

@David-TP thank you for your reply and your follow up questions. I should've added a picture myself, I will try to edit my post.

 

The past few months, on a regular basis, the connection would drop on any device. As if internet was denied, but the wifi connection worked. Some of the Decos have a different MAC address on the sticker than the MAC address shown in the device list. In two cases it's a B instead of a A at the very end. Minor difference but WHY!?

 

Yesterday I replaced a Netgear switch by the SG2210 and all I did was replug the ethernet cables. Lost the entire (wifi) network! Couldn't access the Decos through the app, had to reset them all. Was a days work all in all. Got it working no (I think), and set the new network to AP. It's still impossible to delete the old network from the Deco app though.

 

Thank you David!

 

Best,

Bas

  @David-TP To explain the headache I get from this setup: it is explained best by saying that most devices are buffering all the time. Connection lost, "buffering" and reconnect.

 

Best,

Bas
