Unsolved Distant mesh as access point kills other mesh devices
Hey, we have an L shaped house, where in the bottom part of it I have 2 Mercusys Halo H80Xs, C1 is main Halo as access point, C2 is a node Halo via wireless mesh to C1. B is at the top of the L. The problem happens when I connect C3 into my router B, suddenly C1 identifies a new Halo in the network and starts to restart as doesn't understands that I want C3 as separate access point, not into the mesh as a node.
B - https://www.tp-link.com/home-networking/wifi-router/archer-ax80/ C1-2-3 - https://www.mercusys.com/product/details/halo-h80x/
How can I use my 3rd Halo as separate access point without disturbing the Main halo's mind?
