Model: Archer A54  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I need help with my set up of daisy chaining 2 Archer A54s.  Our internet is true wireless from the provider (not sure if there is another term but think like satellite to a tower).  It comes into the house to essentially a switch.  We have a Deco M5 that provides wireless for the house connected to the switch.  Also connected to the switch is an Archer A54 that is located in outbuilding 1 set up as an access point.  Internet both wireless and hardwired works great here.  Hardwired to that Archer is another Archer A54 located in outbuilding 2 also set up as an access point.  When I go through the set up for outbuilding 2 the unit sees that I have my laptop hardwired into it and when I plug the cable from outbuilding 1 into the internet port it shows up for a few seconds and then shows as unplugged.  It never recognizes that there is internet service to it.  I know the cable works as I have an extra Netgear WAC505 that I can set up without any issues to provide wiress to outbuilding 2.  My problem with using the Netgear is that it has no hard wired ports and I need a hard wired port for a camera.  Below shows the settings for each unit.  Does anyone have any ideas of what I'm doing wrong or where I should look.  This is driving me crazy.  I'm pretty much a novice at this so I apologize.
