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.

 

Best Regards!
