Hi,

I have 3x XE75 Pro units, all connected to the wired Ethernet network that I have throughout my home.

The master unit plugs into my main switch, a TP-link TL-SG1024DE, which in turn connects via a Draytek router to my ISP.

Another port on the switch connects to a switch in the loft, which in turn links to 2 other switches in different rooms, each of which has a slave Deco plugged in.

Until this evening it was all working perfectly - but then I decided to tidy up some of the cabling under my desk where the main switch and Deco reside. This, of course, meant plugging and unplugging various things, then putting it all back together again, switching on, and...

...now the two slave Decos have decided to talk wirelessly to each other and/or the master unit, forming a loop (or maybe, loops).

If I leave loop detection turned on at the main switch, the master Deco port gets disabled whenever the slave units are powered.

If I physically power down the slave units, the master Deco comes up and works fine on its own.

Plug in a slave, though, and as soon as it's booted, the master Deco port blinks on the switch, and it gets disabled.

I've been able to temporarily resurrect my network by turning off loop detection on the switch, but that's only a short term workaround. What I actually need is a way to force the slave Decos to only use Ethernet backhaul - or at least, a way to strongly encourage them to figure out for themselves that the Ethernet network is there and is preferable.

The app says "Everything looks good", but shows a little wireless icon above the links between my master and slave Decos.

I really would have expected the option to manually select wired vs wireless backhaul in the browser interface. If nothing else, and if anyone from TP-link is reading this, please update the browser interface to be _at least_ as functional as the app. Give more tech savvy users the ability to manually configure things in a way that works - thanks.
