RBR50 with 3 sats
Router RBR50 in main office front left corner of the house, have a RBS50 in the kitchen, sort of central in the house. Have a RBS50Y in the detached garage which in front of the house and closest to ...
Even if you power OFF this one RBS for 30 seconds then back ON? It should connect to the nearest RBS, not the RBR. You might try rebooting the RBR while leaving the RBS on to see if they connect in daisy chain.
Possible that the distance and building materials where this RBS is will be a factor on it's status and you might not get a "Good" status for the back haul. Again concrete and steel is not good for wifi signals.
I moved the Kitchen sat closer to the main and was able to get good. Back of house sat still is connected to Main router even with "Enable Daisy-Chain Topology"
checked on so not sure why the Back Sat will only connect to the Main router which is at least twice as far as the Kitchen Sat. Not sure if that Daisy-Chain setting really does anything at all.

I will give that a try! Thx!
All working perfectly now! Powercycle worked and now the Back sat shows that is connected to Kitchen Sat and it shows Good on all three sats! Mil Gracias!
Be sure to do a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
Enjoy. :smileywink:
