EX7700 Router Link - Solid red. Poor connection.

I have two EX7700's both with the same settings, both in the same room as the router (setting up)... one has Solid white. Best connection. whilst the other is Solid red. Poor connection.

How can this be, same equipment, same room, same distance to router, same settings...?

Is it a faulty device?

Did you shut off the other extender? 

Having 2 in the same room can cause issues during setup. I usually recommend shutting down 1 while setting up another one.

That could be it, in seperate rooms now and all solid white across the board. Happy days. Internet hasn't felt as strong or fast.
(I also did a firmware update so everything is serviced and tuned).

Thank you.
