Deco M5 Signal Source
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I purchased the Deco M5 as a solution to poor wifi reception at certain areas of the house, esp the garage. The AP I have set up in the garage insists on connecting to the signal source furthest away instead of the one about 5 feet away from it. Kind of defeats the purpose of buying this setup. Any update on when signal source will be a selectable item?

@TP-Link Has this issue been resolved yet? I just bought a set of 3 and an extra one and I am finding that my slaves all connect to main unit even though there is a closer slave with full strength available. From what I have read in forums, this has been going on for some time. If there is no solution for these I will be returning mine right away. Bo chance I am playing musical chairs with turning some off an others on in a particular sequence for this to work as a mesh. This is ridiculous.

I own 5 M5s and have nothing but regrets.
How manually being able to select a signal source wasn't thought to be a core feature is pure incompetence.
To anyone looking to buy this and is doing their research, do not buy. I can not recommend anyone to purchase a TP-Link product based on this experience. No matter how many Decos you buy, your entire house will be bound to the one main Deco. What a farce! TP Link should be ashamed of themselves for advertising their product in such a manner, knowing full well it fails to do what the people who are going to buy it are expecting.
