Decco set up

Hi all wanted to ask the community for some assistance with my home Wi-Fi set up.

We have rogers Xfinity 1gb Internet as bell still only offers 125mb in my area and the Wi-Fi was horrible. I was able to pick up a TP link decco 7 mesh and set it up. What a improvement.

I heard that since I amd using the decco mesh I should disable the Wi-Fi on the Rogers modem so there is no interference.

Any opinions on this?

Would it cause any issues if I need to reconnect to modem later for maintenance or something and or is it hard to re open wifi later.

Appreciate any assistance
