Weak signal with ethernet cable plugged in

2021-07-22 14:22:14

Model: TL-WA855RE

Hardware Version: V5

Firmware Version: 1.0.1 Build 200415 Rel.37464n

I've done the setup with it in close proximity to the router. Once done, I've moved it to a position that is on the very edge of the wifi signal but I plugged an ethernet cable in and it won't re-broadcast from the ethernet source, it continuously tries to grab the weak wifi signal and re-broadcast that.

How do I make it broadcast with the ethernet cable?
