No Ability to Daisy Chain AX6000 (two satellites)
Just bought the 3 pack (1 AX6000 router and 2 satellites), and as far as I can tell there is NO ability to enable daisy chain topology. Here is the old (original orbi) settings for adanced wirele...
Holy crap — swapping the two satellites and plugging them in sequentially worked. It now shows them in a line / in daisy chain. (With the last sat connecting on 5Ghz)
Seems a bit temperamental in deciding when it wants to daisy chain. I still think there should be an override option.

Glad that worked. Ya I guess it would be nice to have that check box like on the Orbi AC.
I would make a backup configuration to file for safe keeping. Please mark your thread as solved so others will know.
Enjoy. :smileywink:
- So I went back and looked at the network map and it has reverted back to having each satellite connect to the router and disregard the prior daisy chain. Nothing was rebooted or reset.
Not having much confidence in this AX orbi’s firmware logic. AC Orbi always locked in on daisy chain and never reverted back when the topology setting was checked.Possible the app maybe changing status and not the actual system or RBS. If nothing rebooted. The RBS maybe still be daisy chained.
App is showing backhaul as good. Web login shows it as poor. When I set everything up initially, backhaul was "good" in the web browser for the two satellites (why it's suddenly "poor" is a mystery to me -- the office satellite is like 50 feet away with out closed doors or many walls in the way. Also now shows sat 2 (furthest away / cabana) as being on 2.4Ghz which leads me to believe it is in fact connecting back to the router on 2.4Ghz (instead of 5Ghz chained to the other sat)
