Dear community,
I have recently bought two Deco M5 nodes and installed them as access points as shown below (I have wired everything and the Wi-Fi function of my router is disabled):
My question is what is the difference with respect to speed and functionality (apart from not being able to use anti virus and parental control) between my setup en the setup shown in the image below (when a third Deco functions as a router)? I have good speed in every corner of my apartment, however moving from one corner to another leads to a short lag in e.g. streaming or video-calls, when my Wi-Fi device reconnects from one access point to the other. Would the setup below overcome this problem?
I would appreciate an answer that is understandable to someone without too much IT experience (in other words, use examples).
Thank you in advance!
