No mesh for EAP245v3 in the new SDN firmware, I Asked TP-LINK for a beta firmware but they never reply on that.

@shberge,

 

Thank you for the update!

@shberge Did you have had any response from support yet?

 

For me mesh is crucial because I have an outdoor ap.

@MkraM Yes I contacted supper about this as well as some other issues. here is the answer.

 

By the way, I noticed that you asked about the EAP245 for mesh feature, for your answer, there will be a new firmware released soon to support the mesh feature, please wait patiently.

 

but this answer have they given for 1.5 years now 
 

FYI, here in the States, the EAP225V3 is only $60 from Amazon

These do support MESH before and after SDN.  I just use one of these instead for my 225-OD MESH.

 

I'll be curious to see what kind of capabilities (e.g. re: MESH) the new 620 and 660 will have on release.  Wonder if there will be a "6E" version as well in the next year or so.
