Deco P9 setup issues
Hi,
I bought a set of 2x Deco P9 and also I am having an existing Deco M4.
First I want to describe my setup, that is as follow:
At second floor is I have my internet ISP modem and I've connected the main Deco P9 directly to ISP modem through cable
At first floor I have another Deco P9 satellite (into first room) that is plugged directly into wallet socket (no extension cord involved), also I have another Deco M4 into another room.
My questions are:
1. If the P9 deco are using PCL connection between them anyway why does it show into the mobile Deco app that there is no connection between main P9 and satellite P9 ?
In theory it should never be an issue with the connection between P9 units if they are connected on power line also. I can understand that the signal would not be super great but at least there will be a signal between them.
2. My Deco M4, from first floor, is trying to connect to the main P9 Deco from second floor even if the signal is very very weak and it has the other P9 Deco (the satellite from the same floor ) very close to it. Why is not using the second P9 as the preferred node to connect to that should have a better signal ?
So my actual configuration is:
ISP
|
M4 ---- Main P9 ---- Second P9
I would expect to have the following configuration
ISP
|
Main P9 ---- Second P9 ---- M4
only because the ISP and Main P9 are at the second floor and the Second P9 and M4 are at the first floor and my closer to each other.
