Wired backhaul configured but still shows WLAN Backhaul Statistics
I've got an RBR-50 (configured as an AP) with satellites configured using wired ethernet backhaul. The GUI shows all the satellites connected using wired backhaul. When I go to advanced -> admin...
Firmware: 2.3.5.30
Both RBS connected through tplink TL-SG1024DE ( it is a managed switch, I've got IGMP snooping disabled )
I do not have daisychain enabled.
Thanks for your reply.
What is the status if you connect one of the RBS or both as a quick test directly to the RBR with out the switch in the middle?
One other factor of the switch that may be a cause, your switch seems to have Green Ethernet features: "Innovative energy-efficient technology reduces power output by up to 18%" Something that also causes Orbi to not work well. :smileyfrustrated:
Trying it now - will post the results.
Current config - RBR50 (AP) with one RBS50 directly cabled
Interesting - there doesn't appear to be any backhaul traffic, outside of what appears to be a beacon of 59 packets transmitted every five seconds.
I'm going to attach the second RBS50 through the tplink and see what we get.
So did the one RBS directly connected to the back of the RBR show wired or wireless as the status?
