Linking mismatch with two EX80 nighthawks
I have 2 nighthawks, one is Ethernet connected to the router and the other is linked to the connected AX6000 nighthawk via an Ethernet cable. Essentially they are daisy chained to each other.

FURRYe38 is correct. when hardwired they need to be in access point mode. Shut one off and go through its setup first (making sure to select access point mode), then once its setup, shut it off and setup the other one. I'd recommend the installation assistant over using the app for this setup.
Should be a pretty awesome setup with 2x of them daisy chained with a hardwired backhaul. Just keep in mind that devices will be a little more "sticky" setup in access point mode versus a traditional mesh setup. But it should still be darned quick.
