6. Power off your modem and remove the backup battery if it has one.

8. Wait for the ‘Internet’ light to be stable on your modem.

Note: If the LED is not pulsing blue, press the RESET on Deco for one second, the LED will turn to yellow. Just wait for about 2 minutes until the LED turn to pulsing blue and go on.
10. Your smartphone will attempt to find and link to the Deco.
In case it fails to find the Deco in this step:
1) Make sure the smartphone supports Bluetooth 4.0 or later.
2) Switch to another smartphone and restart the onboarding process.
11. Assign your connected Deco to a room. The location will be also used as this Deco’s name.
12. Select the connection type such as PPPoE, Dynamic IP, and Static IP, and fill in VLAN ID if ISP required, which generally provided by ISP. The Common connection types of regular ISPs we collected is for reference only.
For connection type: you may choose Dynamic IP when the Deco wired to a main router/Modem Router like Pic 1, or you are suggested to confirm with ISP if your TP-Link Modem is wired to ISP/ a bridge Modem directly like Pic 2
