@greenbike 

1. Can you confirm the model number, example VR2100. Most of the TP-Link combo modem routers do work with Sky FTTC (VDSL, not G.fast)

2. I don't think the Deco's are compatible with the combo modem routers.

Excellent intel @Chrisee - thanks for confirming 😀

Do you know if they will work as a mesh with the TP-link combo modem router too?
