Hi,

 

In the image my current Deco network is setup in blue.

 

I want to add a new sub unit wirelessly to the main unit and have the wired connected devices be able to connect to the network. Green in the above image.


Is this possible and how can I achieve this?

Yes this is possible, you would need to tell the new unit to only connect to the main Deco, this can be done in the connection preference settings on the Deco App.

BT Full fibre 500, 1x X60 V3.2 in router mode and 1 x XE75Pro V2.

I am thinking you are buying additional Deco unit to add to your Deco mesh. This is how you add new Deco unit to Deco mesh: https://www.tp-link.com/en/support/faq/1590/

 

The rest should be easy: place it where you want it to be, connect switch to it. By default, wirelessly connected Satellite Deco will prefer connection to Main Deco, so you might not need to worry about other settings in Deco app to make everything work the way you want.
