What should I do if my Deco 4G/5G Product shows No Signal or No Service on Deco App?
28561 Sometimes, when you configure Deco 4G/5G products on 3G/4G or 4G/5G Router mode, you might receive the error message “No Signal” or “No Service”, thus the configuration will be failed, Or the Deco 4G/5G products were working fine before, suddenly they are offline and “No Signal” or “No Service” appears on the Deco App.
Troubleshooting Steps
If the error appears when you are configuring the Deco 4G/5G product for the first time and the same error still exists after tapping “Try Again”, please tap “Skip” to finish the configuration first, then you will be able to do the following troubleshooting steps:
1) Place your Deco in an open area near a window and power outlet. Look for a location where it could receive a strong 4G or 5G signal. It is recommended to try windows on different sides of the house for the best signal.
2) Check Network Mode, Band, and Carrier on More → Internet Page of Deco App, make sure the Network Mode is on “4G Preferred” for 4G product, “5G Preferred” for 5G product, Band and Carrier are both on “Auto”.
3) Try to reboot the main Deco and check the network status on Deco App again.
4) Try to change Carrier from “Auto” to “Manual” to search carrier manually on the More → Internet → Carrier page to see if your carrier is available or not.
5) Insert the same SIM card into another 4G/5G device to check if it receives a good 4G/5G signal and if the internet works fine.
