Mesh router connection question

Model: Deco X68  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I have a Linksys router with 2 USB ports. Can I connect a Deco x68 router to the Linksys via Ethernet cable?  Then turn off wifi on the Linksys and retain the use of the USB ports on the Linksys? To clarify my connection sequence: Modem to Linksys to Deco via ethernet cables.

Hi, since both Linksys and Deco could be worked as wireless routers, in case there is a double NAT issue during USB sharing, it is suggested to set up Deco as access point mode, such as the following layout: ISP---modem---Linksys router(router mode with Wi-Fi off)---<Ethernet cable>Deco X60(AP mode with Wi-Fi enabled)
