700v2 and AX53 are supported.

 

Are you connecting the router and extender DIRECTLY via cable? - It will not work if you have a switch between them - needs to be a direct cable.

Hello

Yes I tried it with direct connection between router and extender.

When I plugged eternet cable, my all network become unstable such as clients dropping connection and not getting any ip adress from router.

I think it causes ip address conflict.

When you connect to the extender via the TPLINK app - can you set/enable Easy Mesh and set the device as a slave/satellite unit first?

When I setup Easy Mesh network, I start with the master unit - factory reset, login to the router, enable Easy Mesh and set unit as Master. Then, for each satellite unit, do the same - factory reset, login, enable EasyMesh - set as satellit device, restart, and then connect the cables.

Is there a time line for supporting Ethernet backhaul for OneMesh devices?

I have MR600 placed in the 1st floor for good reception of LTE and it also provides WiFi for the 1st floor.

I have an ethernet cable running to ground floor and having another wifi router.

It is very difficult to roam across floors without breaking the signal.

We need this, it doesn't make sense to have equipment at this price, to have mesh only as a wifi repeater, we need to release onemesh in access point mode via cable

Some news about tbis topic?

Probaly your extender has set node like repeater, change de operate node to acess point,!

I guess it’s time to say goodbye to TP-Link products — for good.

 

We’ve been waiting for years for this one feature to be implemented, and yet only a couple of range extenders have received an update to support it.

 

At this point, I’d strongly recommend everyone consider switching to other brands like Asus or others that actually support this feature out of the box — as they should, especially when it’s part of the marketing.

 

I used to love TP-Link products, but the fact that such a basic, highly requested software feature still isn’t available across the RE lineup is just disappointing.

 

Goodbye, TP-Link. I hope you treat your customer base better in the future.

Add re505x to onemesh with Ethernet backhaul

Just bought a second router to extend my WiFi network over two floors and found out, to my dissapointment, that OneMesh doesn't support Ethernet connection.

 

I fully support, just like all comments before me, Ethernet backhaul implementation, and the sooner the better.

 

For now, I'll revert to using two separate WiFi networks until Ethernet backhaul is applied, but seeing as this thread is already 4 years old, I won't hold my breath  for TP-Link to come through.
