Connect 1st Orbi satellite via Ethernet to router then connect 2nd satellite wirelessly to 1st sat
My router is located on the second level, my satellite is on the first floor (where my office is) but there are too many turns and walls to get there so reception is terrible. I added a second satel...
Yes, "Daisy Chain" can mix ethernet and WiFi links.
A suggestion: Before drilling through walls, get a l-o-n-g ethernet patch cord and string it between router and 1st satellite location. (up stairs, down hallways, etc.) A 100ft. Cat 6 patch cable is $17 on Amazon. What matters is the physical location of the two satellites in relation to each other. The exact pathway taken by the ethernet link is unimportant.
Thank you very much for clarifying. I will make sure to try your suggestion of buying a long Ethernet cable to make sure the location of the 1st satellite is appropriate.
Thanks again.
Thanks again.
