Hard wiring Deco X50
I have a concrete house with a detached studio so I have 3 Deco X50 access points all hard wired to a switch connected to the modem. The secondary access points seem to be using WiFi and not the hard wired connection from what I can tell, which is an issue particularly for the detached studio as speeds are slow. Is there something I need to do so it uses the wired connection?

@brycehamrick If the operation mode of the Deco mesh is "Router", one Ethernet port of the main Deco must be exclusively used to connect to the modem. The satellite Deco cannot communicate with the main Deco via that port.
If the operation mode of the Deco mesh is "Router", you should probably disconnect the switch from the modem, and connect it to a free port of the main Deco.

@yves_b thank you this makes sense. The location of the modem (which is also a router) and switch aren't in an area I want a deco in so I'll try access point mode.
