Archer BE900 and ethernet backhaul for MESH
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Hi All,
Im looking at moving to the BE900 but due to the size of my home, really need to be able to have ethernet backhaul for MESH. Anyone have any experience with the BE900 supporting ethernet backhaul? TP- Link chat feature with support is pretty useless. Thanks in advance!

The BE900 does not currently support EasyMesh wired backhauls, but the feature is being actively developed for the Wi-Fi 7 models so keep an eye out for an official announcement. Keep in mind that in order to create the Easymesh network, you will need to have other routers or extenders that are also EasyMesh compatible.
If you are already looking for a mesh network, you may want to look at the BE95 as it is just as powerful, it just uses Deco Mesh technology.

@Riley_S thanks so much. I have (2) on BE900's in the box. I have a fairly large home and it requires 2 nodes however the layout of the home requires ethernet backhaul for the connection to be strong enough across the footprint. I did speak with Technical support and the firmware for the BE900 is being created for the features that I need. Its just a waiting game now :).

It is definitely on the way, as we have a seen a few of the preliminary results for the features. I can tease that the wait will be well worth it, as it looks to use the latest networking technologies to reach some incredible speeds.

Hopefully its sooner than later! I havent taken my 900's out of the box yet and wont until I can flash the firmware and get ethernet backhaul. I appreciate the feedback!
