Model: EAP245  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version:

Have three eap245 and want to have two set to a mesh network and the third more distant one set to it's own wifi.

 

Is this possiable or do all three need to be on mesh settings once mesh is turned on?

Mesh setup can broadcast as many SSIDs as you wish

 

Therefore if you have 3x APs and 2x SSIDs, you can have both SSIDs broadcast on the entire mesh... or  using the controller override this and disable specific SSIDs on the devices.

 

However.. i have no idea how disabling broadcast of an SSID on a device might affect the mesh, more than likely the upstream node (master node) may require the same SSID to operate

Will the third EAP connect to a switch/router via cable? If it has Ethernet connection, mesh has no meaning as it's for wireless deployment. If you want to give it a different SSID, just use SSID override
