    thanks for sharing the article - if the RBSY50 is outside and furthest away from the router, does it make sense to enable Daisychain?  

    yes...I believe the Daisychain feature is enabled by default

    hi vajim,

     

    i have checked by logging into the admin online - at first it shows poor then refreshes to good.  Does the mapping on the app show illustrate the daisy chain?

     

    thanks...wifiblues

      thanks - i will post the app question there - i do have another question that i've been thinking about.  

      here is the example - let's say i have a mobile device and i move from one area to another - like going up to the roof from indoors - should the wifi connection on the device move from one satellite to another?  is that what daisy chain is about?  if it is not daisy chain, then is there a setting that allows for that?

      thanks,
