OneMesh Availability for powerline products
Hi there,
I am looking into possibilities of improving my WiFi coverage using a TP-Link Archer VR600v AC1600. OneMesh sounds pretty appealing but if I'm not mistaken, the only extension product currently supporting OneMesh is the RE300 repeater. Because I need decent WiFi at both ends of my apartment, I was leaning towards a powerline+WiFi solution such as the TL-WPA7510 or TL-WPA4220 kits. As these are listed under "coming soon" in your compatibility table and I couldn't find out any information beyond that, I was wondering if there was already an expected release date for OneMesh firmware updates for these kits, so I can make an informed decision.
Thanks for your help!

@Kristof120701 as far as I know TL WPA4220 is a powerline extender. What I meant to ask is that what router you have on the other side of the powerline?

Hello,
Do anyone know the timeline for the planned feature for these two products
- TL-WPA8630P KIT V2
- TL-WPA8630P V2
I bought this to improve the wifi connectivity across the home and realised one of them sits on poor powerline and drops speed considerably. OneMesh would make a high difference if powerline adapters can form a mesh.
Hope this feature is ported back to the old device

@natarajmb READ the thread and you will see your ETA is likely "NEVER"... Very disappointing from tp-Link

@Methanoid I actually purchased it because it said "soon" and I could wait a few weeks for an update... Last TP-link I buy

Actually OneMesh seems to be pretty useless for Powerline Products. There's only wifi backhaul, powerline stops working. I don't know what's the point then

hey, according to this, it does use powerline backhaul, doesn't it?

I don't see anything there that states that with OneMesh it uses different backhauls different from WiFi.
According to this, Onemesh backhaul - Home Network Community (tp-link.com), range extenders can't even use ethernet backhaul. Plus I found the same thing reported in several youtube reviews, which make OneMesh pretty bad, in my oppinion.
Unified network is great, but if you need to keep adding repeaters along the way, without a more reliable connection between them, you just keep losing speed.
