Home Mesh Network with M5 & EAP225 (AC1200)
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Hello, I have an Home Mesh Network composed of 3 Decos M5, one as a Main Deco and the other two connected in series through Ethernet Cable.
I'd like to connect a fourth one to the chain, still with Ethernet Cable, for outdoor coverage (garden), and I am thinking of EAP225 (aka AC1200), which seem to have Mesh capabilities (I see it also among the models I can choose inside the Deco App to extend the Mesh Network) but I see this last is always proposed for Omada or Omada Mesh Networks.
Question is, can I add a EAP225 / AC1200 to my current Mesh Network of three M5s , all connected in Ethernet chain?
Thanks in advance.

Hello and many thanks for your reply.
Here additional info and pictures:
- On the Deco app I see the possibility to add to the Mesh chain also an AC1200, but I am not sure we are talking about the same product, see picture attached.
- Ideally I would like to add the EAP225 - AC1200 to the existing chain of three M5s (see picture attached) and have a unique Mesh Network (3 M5s + 1 EAP225) with same SSID, and specially handle all of them with same TP-LINK DECO App
- The third picture is about the EAP225 - AC1200 product itself, this is the only Outdoor access point I have found that (I thought) I can add to the chain and have a unique Mesh Network, in case this is not possible which (outdoor) Access Point you suggest for my case?
Thanks a lot again in advance.
Regards
Davide
