Hi everyone,

I recently purchased a TP-Link Archer router that supports EasyMesh.

I am trying to set up a mesh network with my TL-WPA7617 Powerline kit (AV1000).

My issue is that the current "OneMesh" implementation forces the backhaul connection via Wi-Fi.

Since the units are far apart (different floors), the Wi-Fi signal between them is weak/unstable.

The system completely ignores the solid Powerline connection (PLC) available via the electrical wiring.

I see on the official list that the TL-WPA7617 is marked as "EasyMesh Planned".

Does anyone have information on when this firmware update will be released?

I am really waiting for the Ethernet/Powerline Backhaul support to stop relying on the weak Wi-Fi link between the nodes.

Thanks for your help!
Greg
