Model: Deco X60

Hardware Version: V2

Firmware Version: 1.0.5 build 20201013

I can connect my deco to the internet if I plug it into my old router. However, when I plug directly into my tp-link cable modem, I cannot connect. Same port, same cable. I tried to switch main units but got the same result. I would like to retire my old router. Any tricks to get the deco to work as a router all by itself?
