Very frustrated with M5 backhaul
Hi all, for the past few days i´ve been wrestling with this problem and I cannot seem to figure out why this happening.
I got 3 TP links M5 deco´s. Current set up is M5 deco wired to the modem, and via backhaul wifi a connection to second M5. However, for the third M5, I want to have an ethernet backhaul connection with the second M5.
I used a patched CAT6 cable with RJ45´s to try and connect to the second M5 with the third M5, but there is no connection. The CAT 6 cable works fine though, because I have tested it with both a cable tester, and I plugged in the cable from modem to my computer, and i got fantastic ethernet.
This must mean there is something wrong with the M5´s right? Not necessarily, because when I use a different cat 6 cable to connect the second and third M5, the ethernet backhaul works just fine!
I put in a lot of effort to put the reroute the 'defective' Cat 6 cable throughout the house from downstairs to upstairs, so I really want to make it work with that cable, not a different one.
Willing to pay a gazillion dollars for the golden tip.
