AX4200 with 3 satellites hard wired
I have 3 RBS750 plugged directly into the back of the RBR750. My wireless devices all drop wifi at random times. Google AI is telling me that a backhaul status of Good is not correct for a wired con...
Firmware = V7.2.8.2_5.1.18
New 4000sq single story with basement. Pros installed 14 Cat6 lines all deadhead into the basement where I also have the router and the Fiber ONT. Everything is very far apart from each other.
Switch = NETGEAR 24-Port Gigabit Ethernet Unmanaged Network Switch (GS324) | Essential Model
I had a tuff time getting the sats installed originally but I had a cheapo Dlink 8 port hub and the Router would not recognize the Sats via wire just wifi backhaul. All this equipment came from my old house but with only 1 Sat.
For that size of home, the RBR and just two RBS should be enough.
It's best to first wireless connect the RBS to the RBR, having RBR and RBS near the RBR or in same room. Once they are wireless connected then ethernet connect them to the RBR with or with out the LAN switch in the mix. Once all is good, then place back into remote locations where ethernet is connected there with the NG switch in between the RBR and RBS. You will have FULL 1000Mbps backhaul connection to each RBS ethernet connected to the switch and would not be reduced. Why Ethernet BH is preferred if the infrastructure is in place for it.
