What is EasyMesh with Ethernet Backhaul and Why we need it? 

 EasyMesh with Ethernet Backhaul refers to the Main router and the satellite device are connected via an Ethernet cable to establish an EasyMesh network. Ethernet Backhaul offers a more reliable and faster option compared to EasyMesh with Wi-Fi, ensuring a robust and efficient EasyMesh network setup.

 

 

 

How to create EasyMesh with Ethernet Backahul?

 

Pre-configuration Notice:

1.Ethernet Backhaul is supported only when both your main router and satellite extender support EasyMesh with Ethernet Backhaul.

>>Router Support List of EasyMesh with Ethernet Backhaul

2.The extender needs to be under wireles range extender mode, not Access Point.
3.Once the Ethernet backhaul is successfully established, the wireless backhaul will be automatically disconnected. Conversely, if the Ethernet backhaul connection gets interrupted, the devices will automatically reestablish the mesh network using the wireless backhaul.

 

Scenario 1: Change wireless backhaul to Ethernet backhaul

Scenario 2: Add a new satellite Range Extender to EasyMesh

 

 

EasyMesh with Ethernet Backhaul stars with RE315_V1, which features an Ethernet Port with a speed of up to 100 m/s. This functionality will gradually be extended to other EasyMesh-supported extenders. We encourage you to share your feedback below regarding your current models of EasyMesh extenders and routers. This feedback will help us prioritize the implementation of EasyMesh on different product models.

Hi, the support for RE815XE has been in status "Planned" for well over a year. Is it actually happening or is a different model going to be released that supports easymesh with ethernet backhaul and has a tri-band?

Hi @Joseph-TP   @David-TP , wanted to check if RE605X v.2.20 would also have ethernet backhaul support and if there is a workaround that can be done for this? Thanks!

Almost every extender has the support for Ethernet backhaul except 505x. I wonder why. I have be230 and re505x and it is very odd that it has not that feature. Re4xx, 6xx, 7xx, 8xx etc has that feature but not 5xx models.

The newer (and more expensive) RE815XE isn't in this list.  Any idea when it will be?

I have the Archer AXE75_V1 router which already supports it.

Hello, i have extender RE705X v1 EU, with version 1.3.10. Ethernet backhaul work only till something reboot. RE705X or AXE75. I have two extenders one is connected direct to router second one from switch. They act the same.

After reboot router works just fine, but extenders dont have access to internet. Only option to get it back working is unplug ethernet cable extend with wifi. When everything start working normal can plug back ethernet cable and everythinh works again till something reboots

Hi @Nplumb ,

Do you mean that you are using the Access Point Mode? To connect the RE705X to the main router via EasyMesh Ethernet Backhaul, you should set it to range extender mode.

It is recommended that you hard reset the RE705X: With the power on, use a pin to press the button for 1 second to reset the extender.

 

Then configure the extender as the satellite unit via Ethernet Backhaul: How to build an Ethernet Backhaul using TP-Link EasyMesh Range Extenders.

 

Also, what is the model and hardware version, as well as the firmware version, of your main router?

Using the 1.3.10 Build 20250817 Rel. 63070 on RE705X v1.0 (updated via Tether App)

I'm still having the issues with devices not receiving internet when connected and the devices is set to wireless access (to enable Ethernet back haul)

Do we have further Beta firmwares or a timeline on this being fixed?

  @JJinMaine 

Also Re800 isn't supported and for the cost and the target of the product that's an autenthic scandal. Mad things for people that spent so much... I think i'll sold my ge800 and two re800 and i'll take other products from another brand.

I'm really not satisfied with tplink policy they sell beta products without support

Adding my vote for RE500X to have ethernet backhaul enabled. Just bought two of these on Amazon with zero indication that ethernet backhaul wasn't supported.

 

This was a very unpleasant surprise.
