A RBS750 satellite is connected 2 another RBS750 satellite instead of the RBR750 router via wifi...
Hello. One of my RBS750 satellites is currently connected to another RBS750 satellite instead of the RBR750 router via wifi. Both are currently at 5 GHz. Satellite to satellite has a good backhau...
Yeah, it's mostly works. Once in a while disconnected. I was curious why it was like that. House is huge one floor, long shape, and almost 4K sq. ft.
I moved the satellite and now it connects to the router even though its backhaul is weak. Is there a way to force their backhauls to use 2.4 Ghz for the greater distances?
It's all automatic.

You don't want it to use the 2.4ghz backhaul. 2.4ghz is very slow even in close range and sensitive to interference. A weak 5ghz signal is still going to be faster and have less interference than a 2.4ghz one.

Thanks. These days, I see weak. I don't see it as good anymore. Once in a while, it's disconnected. đ
