AX20 - Will OneMesh work if the router is set to Access Point mode?

Model: Archer AX20

Hardware Version:

Firmware Version:

Hi All, I currently have an AX20 running as a router with several OneMesh devices (RE605X). All works well but for reasons that I won't go into I need to now switch the AX20 to AP mode. Will OneMesh still be an option in AP mode? Yes, I could try switching over and seeing what happens, but I don't want to risk upsetting a delicate setup.

Thanks

OneMesh won't work in AP mode - check this FAQ - Q8/A8.

Thanks :) Any idea if AP mode will ever support OneMesh? Obviously tp-link have their reasons for this however I'm struggling to see why AP mode shouldn't be able to work with OneMesh

@RobbyB

In general the reason is that in AP mode many of the device features are unavailable - see this FAQ.

Only TP-Link can give you more details on that.
