How to change the order Deco's connect?

Hello,
I have 3 Deco's lined up in a row wirelessly.
#1 main at 300mps
#2 at 150 mps
#3 at 100 mps
Everything has been working fine, but by the third deco my internet speeds are lower than I would like. My solution was to run an ethernet from 1-2 while 3 would hopefully connect to 2 wirelessly with faster speeds. So I was at 1>Wireless>2>wireless>3 I want to do 1>ethernet>2>wireless>3. When I did this 3 wouldnt connect to 2, it just connected to 1 and my speeds on 3 went from like 100mps to 10 mps and it wouldnt connect to 2. What am I doing wrong? I can not connect a wire to #3. I did not change any settings because I dont know what to change. The deco app did show that 1>2 were ethernet connected and the other connection was 1>3 wirelessly. Thanks
Hi, welcome to the community.
So far, Deco X20 does not support manually changing the connection order(or signal source).
For more details, please have a look at this link；
Would restarting Deco X20 #3 help it re-select the connected Deco?
If it did not help, could you please send an email to support.forum@tp-link.com with the following details:
1. A picture of the floor map with a rough location of each Deco unit.
2. A screenshot of the signal source strength on #3 Deco X20.
Thank you very much.
Best regards.
