Extend (easy mesh) via ethernet
Extend (easy mesh) via ethernet
![](/avatar/avatar-10.png)
I've an archer C80 as main router on my living room, I've connected two ethernets to it that go to 2 other bedrooms, and I've bought a RE700X to try to use as Acess Point and extend the easy mesh network.
I've tried a lot of things and looks impossible, is not compatible to extend a wifi network using an AP via ethernet? only via wireless repeater? looks weird.
And for IOT networks, are them possible to be extended?
In summary I just want to have 2 networks on my whole home "WIFI-MAIN" and "WIFI-IOT" both are created on my C80 but I'm not able to extend them via ethernet to RE700X, do I've to buy another extender? I prefer extenders than router because them are slim.
Thanls

@Sunshine oh thank you very much, then I can buy any router (not AP) compatible with ethernet backhaul and just wait right? for example Archer Air R5 | Router Wi-Fi 6 AX3000 de doble banda | TP-Link España

Hi, Archer Air R5 supports EasyMesh via WiFi backhaul only, it doesn't support Ethernet Backhaul yet.
For TP-Link routers that support EasyMesh Ethernet Backhaul, please refer to this thread: EasyMesh Routers Support Building a EasyMesh Network via Ethernet Backhaul NOW
