Ethernet Backhaul to one of two satellites
I would like to connect the ethernet backhaul from my RBR50 to my RBS50s, but due to wiring accessibility, I can only reasonably get one of my two RBS50s connected via ehternet. Would someone be able to advise if it would cause any issues to operate in this configuration? (Router + ethernet backhaul to one satellite, and wireless backhaul to the second satellite). Thanks.

Re: Ethernet Backhaul to one of two satellites
What FW is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the IP modem the Orbi is connected too?
What is the Mfr and model# of the ethernet switch if one is in the configuration.
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet is recommended in between them to begin with depending upon building materials.
What channels are you using? Auto? Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and any unused channel on 5Ghz.
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?
Try disabling the following and see:
Diable Daisy Chain as it's not needed when using wired back haul. Save settings and reboot the router and satellite(s).
Swap out the satellites to ensure both work on wired connections.
