Some of our EasyMesh Wi-Fi routers have added support for establishing a seamless mesh network via EasyMesh Ethernet Backhaul. You can now connect two or more EasyMesh devices together by wiring the satellite device to the main EasyMesh router. Please check for the updates on your router web GUI or Tether App for the new firmware, update and install the latest official firmware on the router to explore all the new features like EasyMesh Ethernet Backhaul.

Hi,
Not sure if you want to double check on AX23V (JP) to add it to the list, but if someone is interested I have bought one and it supports Ethernet backhaul.
AX23V is sold in Japan. I acquired one and was able to set it up as an EasyMesh satellite
Model: Archer AX23V
Firmware Version: 1.0.2 Build 20240429
Scenario:
Archer AX10 v2.0 (US) as main router
Archer AX23V as EasyMesh satellite using a Cat6 network wire
I've checked on AX10 web UI that AX23V connection type appears as wired and some clients were connected to it.
@Lulito Thank you very much for your valued information.
Yes, I do confirm that Archer AX23V(JP) also supports EasyMesh Ethernet Backhaul. I will add it to my supported device list for other Japanese users' reference.

@PhuQui Sorry that I am unable to provide you with a precise firmware release date. I would recommend that you monitor the firmware releases on the router web GUI or Tether App.
If you have an urgent need to utilize the Ethernet backhaul, I suggest that you consider upgrading to the beta firmware we have provided in my original post here.
