Roon connection issues - need help!

In order to get the Roon core to show up I needed the following setup: cable ethernet > Arris SB8200 modem > RJ45 > Netgear AC1900 Nighthawk wifi router (Intel NUC connected to Netgear wifi router's switch and Luxul switch is completely out of the setup).

I want to be able to run the Netgear wifi router into another room for better coverage, but can't because I need to use its switch to connect to the Intel NUC (and the other connections in my home). My understanding is that Roon is a bit fickle in this area, so I am looking for any advice to solve the issue and get the Luxul switch back in the mix. Thanks!

If I understand your needs correctly, I think your configuration needs to be:

Arris SB8200 modem > (WAN port) Netgear AC1900 Nighthawk (LAN port) > Switch > NUC

If the modem, router, and the switch are in different rooms, you need long Ethernet cables.
