I have a Router and that one connects to the one on the first floor, than that one connects to the one in the living room, and the one on the second floor.
But I want it to go like:
Router connect to Living room and first floor, and first floor connect to second floor.
How can I change this?

Re: Orbi not connecting to the correct orbi
I am not aware of any method to force how satellites connect except with a wired ethernet cable. And, if there were some "trick", such as changing the order they are turned on, it would all go away with the first power outage. Orbi has code that looks at the signal strength of the various radios and decides how to connect. What seems "wrong" to we humans may be "good enough" as far as Orbi is concerned.
Is the performance adequate?

Re: Orbi not connecting to the correct orbi
Only thing you can do is enable Daisy Chain if you want to have RBS piggy back of each other in a line.

Well I have a orbi setup. But when I look at the network map on the app, the orbis are not connected to the right ones. So for example:
I have a Router and that one connects to the one on the first floor, than that one connects to the one in the living room, and the one on the second floor.
But I want it to go like:
Router connect to Living room and first floor, and first floor connect to second floor.
