How do I switch from wireless backhaul to Ethernet

[angelobodetti]

Hi All,

I’ve moved and my new home has Ethernet wired throughout. Previously I was using the wireless backhaul, I would like to use the Ethernet backhaul functionality now.

How to do I go about switching from wireless to Ethernet? Is it easy as plugging it in? Are there setting I need to change?

Any help is appreciated!

Disable Daisy Chain on the RBR first. 

Set up IP address reservations for each satellite and devices on the router as you add them to the router. The satellites need to be set up via wireless first. Then connect 1 satellite at a time to the ethernet LAN cable. Wait 5 minutes and the top led on the satellite should turn on BLUE. Set up an IP address reservation for the 1st satellite. Continue to do the same thing for the 2nd satellite. Then follow up with your devices. 

IF you use any lan switches, be sure they are non managed and non green ethernet featured.
