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...
I’m considering having the middle (office ) first sat hard wired to the router (getting a handyman to crawl under house to route cat8 and cut out wall plates in both rooms).
Question: would the second sat in the cabana be intelligent enough to know the other sat is now Ethernet backhauled and connect directly to it (daisy chain) instead of trying to connect like it is now to the router? Basically does it see Ethernet backhaul as almost equivalent to the router and ramp up the logic on daisy chaining to the Ethernet connected sat?

I would do CAT6A under and inwall to wall plate jacks. CAT6A is more robust for under and in wall cable runs. How far is the cabana location from the house? With in 200 feet? If so, why not have a cable guy run a CAT6A out there and then wire your RBS up there.
Not sure about ethernet vs wireless detect on the RBS. I presume the RBS probably doent' care just as long as there is a signal to connect to. The RBS ethernet connected would handle the wired backhaul change and traffic there.
