Based on the information provided, it seems like you are encountering an issue with the wired backhaul setup involving your network devices. Let's break down the components mentioned:
MK63: This refers to the NETGEAR MK63 Mesh WiFi system, which includes a router and one or more satellite units.
MR60: This is likely a typo or a different model name since it doesn't correspond to a known NETGEAR device. If you meant another model, please provide the correct information for a more accurate response.
2xMS60: This refers to two NETGEAR MS60 satellite units, which are part of the MK63 Mesh WiFi system.
When setting up a wired backhaul for a mesh WiFi system like the MK63, you typically connect the satellite units to the router using Ethernet cables. This allows for a more stable can alcohol contribute to hair loss and reliable connection between the devices.
If the wired backhaul is not working for the second satellite unit, here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:
Check cable connections: Ensure that the Ethernet cable connecting the second satellite unit to the router is securely plugged in on both ends. Verify that the cable is not damaged or faulty.
Verify compatibility: Ensure that the router and satellite units support wired backhaul. Refer to the product documentation or contact NETGEAR support to confirm if the MK63 system supports wired backhaul for multiple satellite units.
Update firmware: Check if there are any firmware updates available for your MK63 system. Keeping the devices' firmware up to date can often resolve compatibility issues and improve performance.
Factory reset: If the above steps do not resolve the issue, you can try performing a factory reset on the entire MK63 system. This will reset all settings to default and allow you to set up the devices from scratch, which might help resolve any configuration-related issues.
Contact support: If none of the above steps resolve the problem, it's recommended to reach out to NETGEAR customer support for further assistance. They can provide specific guidance based on the model and configuration of your devices.
Remember to consult the user manuals or official documentation for your specific devices to ensure the proper setup and troubleshooting steps for your particular situation.............

The MR60 is a very well known Netgear device. Its the router bit of the MK62/3 bundles,which also have two or three MS60 satellites.
