I setted daisy chain disabled because the Wifi satellite is closer to the router than the other satellite.
In the attached devices, the type connection of the Wireless Satellite is 2.4ghz but in the past was 5ghz. The satellite is close to the router, I'm confident that does not mean its a bad connection. I can anyway get the 200mbps of speed. But I wonder why it's sometimes in 2.4 in type connection
thank you for your help. You trully deserve some beers
In fact, not a good idea disable the chain tipology. The wireless satellite type connection is keeping "poor". I still have the maximum wifi speed. I enabled the chain again, and the connection is always "good".
Strange things I'll never understand :D

I don't think it's Daisy Chain that causes the Satellite to connect to the Router over 2.4 or 5 GHz band. I think if you just wait some time the backhaul will change automatically to the 5 GHz band.
- Yes, you are right. It changes to the 5ghz.
My only concern is that disabling the chain the wifi quality is set to be poor. Its so strange because the satellite is exactly in the same place, and with the chain active the quality is good. Guess it won’t be bad the chained remains activate. Anyway, you could clarify me about this. I think there was a time that with that setting off the quality remain good for 1 time. The wired satellite is always good btw
