Ethernet back haul via switch with third party router doing DHCP
Model :
Hardware Version :
Firmware Version :
ISP :
I have the following setup, and want to add an M5 mesh to it, but want to confirm it'll work before purchasing.
The router performs DCHP. I need this device to continue providing DHCP for the various wired devices connected to the switch.
Can I connect 3 M5 units to the switch for back haul and have the mesh wireless work? See proposed solution image below.
