Thanks for quick reply,
three sattelites are connected from the RBR850's ethernet port.
The other sattelites are through the switch. yes sometimes they comeback.

All six 'wired' should be the optimal structure.
These cable connections are probably going through a patch panel somewhere in the house?
- Yes 3 of them is directly connected to the router (rbr850)
The others are connected to the switch directly no patchWas the RBS first wirelessly connected and synced to the RBR one at a time, then ethernet connected?
What is the brand and model# of this switch?
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What CAT# lan cable are you using? CAT6 is recommended.
