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, welcome to the community.
May I know the model number of the Host router?
It would be highly appreciated if you could start a new thread here with more details:
https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/77
If connecting to the separate 6GHz band of RE600BE, how much speed you will get?
By the way, how much speed you could get from the host router?
Wait for your reply and best regards.

Hi tplink team,
I wish a happy new year to all of us.
@David-TP May I ask if there is any update on the timeframe in which the wired backhaul mesh functionality will be added in additional extender devices.
I am using the RE815XE extender and I would really appreciate if this feature will be finally added to my device.
Thanks for your support!
BRs,
Sokratis

@David-TP
Can we get an actual timeline for the other range extenders? We have been waiting for ages with nothing happening.
I want to use your product with ethernet backhaul but it's taking forever to implement it.

@David-TP when will we get Ethernet backhaul for the RE800BE to connect with an GE800?

Thanks for supporting the Range Extenders that you do with Ethernet Backhaul for easymesh. Of course I wish there were more, but I'm glad there are some. I doubled (as expected) my throughput moving from RE815XE (which I mistakenly thought supported ethernet backhaul {Stupid AI reponses}) to RE655BE. My wife hates the look of little boxes, antennas, and cones on all the countertops and shelves as MESH nodes, but we do not mind the RE's at ground level plugged directly into an outlet. We changed from 5 Synology Wired Mesh Nodes on shelves (WiFi 5) to 2 Wired TPLink (WiFi 7) and 1 Wireless TPLink (WiFi 6 - old one I had laying around) and we now have better performance (wire speed) all over the house. I'm still on windows 10, but it will be nice when I switch wto Windows 11 over the summer and all my devices (about 10) can run WIFI 7. I'm still using my synology as primiary firewall. That is my only ding on TPLink is how lightweight the advanced controls are for firewall, intrusion detection, alerts and reporting. Nevertheless I'm pretty happy with my recent addition of TPLink to my home / work at home setup.

I wonder if @David-TP still works for TP Link, he doesn't seem to reply anymore in any threads .
Anyways, would be nice if anyone at TP Link could answer the questions in this (and other) thread(s).

Is the RE700X v1 planned to support EasyMesh in AP mode?
I have one and would like to configure EasyMesh with ethernet backhaul.
Thank you.
