Model :

Hardware Version :

Firmware Version :

ISP :

I have the following setup, and want to add an M5 mesh to it, but want to confirm it'll work before purchasing.

Internet --- Modem --- Router --- Switch


The router performs DCHP. I need this device to continue providing DHCP for the various wired devices connected to the switch.

Can I connect 3 M5 units to the switch for back haul and have the mesh wireless work? See proposed solution image below.

I see TP-Link aren't going to respond.  Pity.
