Trying to have best setup with placement of X90 and M9 connected to TL-SG2428P switch
1. Internet - Bell2000 Modem to M9 to Switch. M9s and 1-X90 connected to Switch
2. Internet - Bell2000 Modem to X90 not connected to switch. 2nd X90 and M9s connected to Switch
3. Internet - Bell2000 Modem to X90 connected to switch. 2nd X90 and M9s connected to Switch
4. Internet - Bell2000 Modem to X90 connected to switch and M9s connected to Switch. 2nd X90 not wired
Note: I have 3# - M5 in Access point mode.
@TechPriest Hi Guys, As you know I was looking for the best option to include my MESH network of 2# - X90; 3# - M9 and 3# M5 into my Home network [ OC200, ER605, TL-SG2428P and TL-SG2218] ***** OKAY - No wise cracks. When I built my home 18 Years ago - WiFi was a baby, so I had all the rooms on the 1st and 2nd floor wired for Ethernet and some coaxial. I then wired the basement myself with multiple jack to meet my business needs then. All terminating in a room under the main stairs in a Rack]
Results of testing various options with my equipment FAILED because this equipment does not support CLI
The option works well when I connect directly to BELL 2000, then into an old switch and connecting 2# - M9 and the other X90 in backhaul mode I have GREAT coverage throughout my 5000 sq ft home with concrete, metal beams and brick.
