Connecting several DECOs (more than 3)
I have no the 3 units setup in my 2 floors hows and it provides pretty good coverage, but...
I wanna add additional units, one per every chamber so there will be no quality-drops at all plus every room will be wired connection => max speed.
So far the connection is as following, all in access point mode:
- Main unit, wired to the ISP router
- Middle floor unit - wirelessly connected to the main one
- Second floor unit wired connected to the main one (to the second port)
The changes I am planning:
- to wire the middle floor unit. Question: what would be the recommended connection here
- wire to the second floor's unit?
- put a switch on the main unit second port and have the middle unit and second floor unit connected to the main one through the switch?
- if I add 2-3 additional units to rest of the rooms:
- should I wire them in kinda sequential mode so it will create like a line of units OR
- is better to have all the units connected to a switch that will be connected to main unit second port? OR
- it doesn't matter what unit feeds whom, as long as they are wired to the second port of each other?
