Wired and wireless backhaul
Need to check if this will work. I have the router and a satellite working in the house using wireless. The guest house is 200 feet away and the walls are all stone do wifi does not reach. We are pla...
There have been numerous reports of "mixed" satellite connections. The "good news" is that satellite connection is monitored constantly and if the ethernet connection suddenly goes away, the satellite will go back to WiFi backhaul. And, if the 5G backhaul has a bad enough connection, it will turn to a 2.4G WiFi backhaul.
Fortunately, this is an easy thing to test. Put both satellites in the same room with the router and let them sync over WiFi. Connect one with an ethernet patch cable and in a few minutes it will switch to ethernet backhaul. (I do not remember how many minutes it takes for the switch.)
Yes, it will.
