Is there also a Deco for outdoor use to connect to the existing M5?

Well, I haven't found any. However, since it is possible to connect a number of Deco units together, I have enough 'juice' around my house. I have simply placed all the Deco devices in protected rooms, such as the garage, etc. etc.

The TP Link Deco M5 can be operated in router or access point mode. I bought one separately. If I buy the same one again, can I connect it to the mesh network? Can I repeat this as often as I like and thus expand a network? Can each of these M5s be operated as an access point? I wonder if they can connect to a Sunrise Internet box? Thanks for hints

Exactly, just configure the new one with the app. It doesn't even have to be an m5, even an m4 or x60 would work. I use it as an access point myself. I find the connection better then (speed). With the Sunrise or Swisscom box it is not possible to connect via Wifi. I have switched off Wifi on the Sunrise modem because I now only use the Tp-link deco. Hope I could help a little :-)

do i have to start with the starter kit or can i just buy one of the additional satellites as the only satellite? my current wifi is not enough for the whole flat, but three satellites would probably be a bit too much.

However, it is not advisable because the first satellite is the access point. There should be at least two. And the price of the kit is unbeatable. I would recommend the kit.
