    Yes, set it up while connected to Ethernet, then disconnect.

If I recall, to set up the third Boost device should be the same as the second. Both it and number 1 need to be plugged into the router at the same time, so number 1 transfers info to number 3. Your comment does not make it clear if this step was followed.

    I treated #3 as a setup ignoring the Ethernet connection cable  as I assumed it was a standalone Wifi unit like #2 with no cable.

    You are suggesting I plug number 3 into the Ethernet plug to get it setup then remove the cable and locate number 3 as a standalone wifi unit.

        Thank you it worked , surprised me

        you set up as mentioned by you then it tells you to disconnect and move it to where you want the 3rd device.

        Worked great
