POE Deco X50
Trying to setup these 3 POE Deco units.
the home is pre wired with cat6 at 3 locations all terminating to a closet where the modem resides.
It appears to use the main one in router mode both Ethernet connections behind the deco must be used.
one from the modem and the other from the Poe switch.
however I only have 1 cat6 cable in the ceiling.
is there another way to connect these or am I stuck using them as AP's?
The instructions state that if the POE switch is connected to the modem, no other Poe deco can be connected to the same switch.

When you write "stuck using them as AP", do you mean that you prefer not doing that?
If you really want the Router mode, you should place the main Deco close to the modem, or, depending on your ISP, replace the modem by the main Deco.

@yves_b Thanks but it seems these are going back. I lost half the bandwidth with just one deco set in router mode. I don't want to use them as AP since I want to use the built in router functionality. Anyways only have one deco installed at the moment and it is very slow even when I am 5' away from it.
