Model: Deco X68

Hardware Version: V2

Firmware Version: 1.0.4 Build 20210520 Rel. 63364

My 3rd Deco unit is not getting the signal source from my 2nd middle Deco but instead gets it from the Main Deco which is further away. This is in a condo apartment setting so they are all on a single floor lined up one after another in separate rooms.

The signal strength from Main Deco is worse than the signal from my 2nd Deco in my current setup.

Is there anyway that I can force the 3rd Deco to receive the signal from my 2nd middle Deco with the stronger signal instead of my Main Deco?

@Komrade

Hi, it is not always a good thing to connect to the nearest Deco.

And please have a look at this link；

[Deco] Manual Signal Source Selection

So did you have any issue when the 2^nd satellite Deco connected to the main Deco, not the 1^st satellite unit, like an unstable connection?

Could you please draw me a rough picture of the location and distance of each Deco unit?

Thank you very much.
