connect EAP610 outdoor to the network wirelessly

It could be a dumb question.. but I'm trying to setup EAP610 outdoor in my backyard.

I naively thought that I could wirelessly connect it to the existing mesh network (Google), but I'm not sure how I can do that.

To me, it didn't really make sense if I need to connect it using an ethernet cable that is pulled out from the inside of the house!

Can someone please help me figure out if this is a wrong model for the my purpose?

Hi, it has released a new firmware 1.1.3 that supports the RE mode on the EN site.

@phoenixy

feels dumb.. but that firmward download link is for EU.. and it warns that I need to download from US.. but there's no firmware

> Please upgrade firmware/software from the local TP-Link official website of the purchase location for your TP-Link device, otherwise it may cause upgrade failure or mistakes and be against the warranty.

Mine says the hardward version is v1.28, and the download page does not have any firmward update. My firmware version appears as 1.0.4 :|

What am I missing?
