Main Deco is connected via a switch, as are the other Deco units. Unfortunately one Deco keeps connecting over WiFi which than connects it to the third one via cable.
This makes the WiFi on the two additional units very slow.
Everything is in Acces Point Mode, how can I force an ethernet connection in stead of WiFi?

Hey there! To ensure a stable Ethernet connection, try swapping the Ethernet cables or checking Troubleshoot the ports on your switch. Also, confirm that the Deco connected via WiFi is within the range of the main Deco for a solid wired connection. If the issue persists, consider updating firmware or checking for any interference. Hope this helps!

Since the complete reboot en switching to Router Mode and back to Acces Point Mode the problem hasn't returned.
I think what caused the issues, is that the power went down of the router and the main Deco.
The other two Deck's and Ethernet Switch stayed powered. Maybe this caused some strange communication between the two slave Deco units.
