That sounds fine - for the HH6 there are no "settings" to configure to facilitate downstream Wi-Fi AP's - just turn off HH6's Wi-Fi if you don't want to use it - IIRC it's only a couple of clicks somewhere in the Advanced settings.
The rest of the config is all in the Deco's and presumably they come with a manual (I don't have time to search for one right now.)
About the only other thing you might want to do in the HH6 (indeed, I would advocate it,) is to fix the IP addresses the Deco's use. There's a few ways to give the Deco's fixed IP addresses, but probably the simplest is to allow/configure the Deco's to acquire IP by DHCP, (if they are not so configured out of the box - likely they are,) which they will get from the HH6. Then once the HH6 has issued IP addresses to the Deco's, amend the DHCP leases granted in the HH6 settings to "always grant the same address to this device" (however it's worded - I forget.) It's keyed on the MAC addresses.
One other tidbit worthy of mention - once it's all up and running the HH6 may report clients Associated with the Deco's as "wired" rather than "Wi-Fi" devices in the HH6 network map thingy. That's OK, it's not a fault or mis-configuration. The HH6 builds it's map of what is wired/Wi-Fi based on which port it "sees" thoses devices through, and by definition all clients attached to the Decos will be presented to the HH6 through the ethernet port the first one is connected to and so HH6 thinks they are "wired." This is all fine, it doesn't effect the operation of anything at all - routers don't need to "know" about the transport mechanism of any devices on the network and in any case routers aren't "connected" to network devices in any meaningful way. The network map is just a bit of a dog and pony show, so don't worry about it. |
