Model: EAP115  
Hardware Version: V4
Firmware Version:

Hi - I have two EAP115 and the controller software loaded on my laptop which is connected to my existing wireless network.

 

I attached one EAP115 to power and Ethernet to my router on same LAN as my WiFi

 

I adopted the EAP115 in the controller software. This I believe is the Root or Uplink Ap?

 

I attached power to the second EAP115

 

How do I add the second EAP115 as a Mesh AP / create the wireless link?

 

I have a strong suspicion that EAP115 does not support this feature?

Looking on the data sheet it looks like I should of bought EAP225 instead

 

Can anyone confirm for me?

 

Tia!

Does anyone from TP-Link use the forums or is it just end users?

Is there another lower cost AP that supports Mesh?

Looking at #3 and judging the response the answer is a firm NO

Dear @cpcnw,

 

How do I add the second EAP115 as a Mesh AP / create the wireless link?

I have a strong suspicion that EAP115 does not support this feature?

 

I'm afraid that the EAP115 doesn't support the mesh feature. The datasheet has one note that you may have missed.
