Connect one of Satellite Deco directly to Main Deco with Ethernet cable, see if it can get Ethernet backhaul. Router --> Main Deco--> Satellite Deco

 

If it does, it is possible switch that you are using does not support Deco Ethernet backhaul protocols. More on the topic of Deco Ethernet backhaul can be found here: General questions about Ethernet Backhaul feature on your Deco

Thank you for the reply... I tried that & it still only goes via the WIFI. I know the ethernet is fine because I can get a hard line connection when plugging it into my laptop! Both my 48 way switch (TL-SG1048) and POE switch (LS108GP) are TP Link ones!

I take it back, when I took an ethernet directly from the switch to the Deco is worked.... so I must have an issue either with the inbult cables (ill check now) or somewhere else?

 

Thanks...ill post back here when/if I find anything!

welp, im an idiot! I have two ports per network location, one live & one not (spare). I had them all plugged into the 'offline' port..... now that im using the 'live' ports...all is working well & im getting rull speed wifi everywhere.

 

Thank you again :)
