Model: Deco M5  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.5.

Can someone tell me if the Ethernet ports on the Dec M5 can support 1GBS? Since I have another MeshWifi and that Ethernet port can only support 100 mbs. 
 

thanks

The Deco M5 has two Ethernet ports that are gigabit. The two that have 100 Mbps would be the Deco W2400 and the Deco E4.

Thanks, Tony! A different question. I have the 3 Device Mesh Wifi, can I add a fourth device, will that have an impact on the overall performance of the internet?

You can have a max of 32 devices, but we recommend 10 to maintain optimal performance. 

 

With a fourth device, no, I don't see you having performance issues. What will happen is the 4th node will look for the fastest connection automatically, either directly to the main Deco or through one of the satellite nodes.
