How to reset a TP-Link Deco unit or system from the Deco app

If you’re using a TP-Link Deco system with two, three, or more units and want to reset the whole system or just some stations, open the Deco app on your phone. In the Network tab, which opens by default, tap on your network map, shown in the center.

Now you can see the network map once again. Tap the unit you want to reset. If you want to reset the whole TP-Link Deco mesh system, don’t start with the main one, save it for last. Select the secondary stations first, one at a time.

Selecting a unit displays details about that station, the devices connected to it, MAC address, IP address, etc. In the top-right corner, tap the button showing three vertical dots. In the menu that opens, tap Remove.

The Deco app warns you that “Removing this Deco will reset it to factory default settings and reduce the Wi-Fi range of the Deco network.” Tap Remove to continue the reset process.

That station is removed from the TP-Link Deco system and you can see its LEDs changing color. Wait for about two minutes until it flashes blue, signaling that the reset is complete and the unit is ready for installation/configuration.

In the TP-Link Deco app, the newly reset station disappears from the network map. You can repeat the process above for all the other stations. In the end, when only the main unit is left, tap on the map again to reset the whole system.

This takes you straight to the settings page for the only station left - the main one. Tap the button showing three vertical dots in the top-right corner and choose Remove.

Tap Remove one more time to proceed with the final reset.

In the next two minutes, the main Deco station is also reset. You know it’s done when its LEDs flash blue, signaling that the unit is ready for installation/configuration.
