I can't quite make sense of the description. Does one of the "satellites" have to be connected directly to the router?
If so, it makes no sense to me as the reception is good there.

Question

Accepted Answer

No. Configure the router, connect the satellite somewhere within wifi range and you're done.

Answer

As I understand it, it only makes sense to switch off the old WLAN and supply a Deco with Internet via cable as a starting point. This creates the desired fast mesh network. I don't think the Decos work well as old school WLAN repeaters.
