Super Mesh
On the
Wi-Fi / Super Mesh
page, you can enable the Super Mesh function. This function is
designed to quickly connect multiple devices into one transport network for providing high-quality
Wi-Fi coverage in living units of complicated planning or for creating a large temporary Wi-Fi
network for an outdoor event.
A mesh network consists of a main device (the Master role) and subordinate devices (the Slave
role). Devices connect to each other via wireless or wired connection. Settings are transmitted from
the main device to a subordinate one at the final step of configuring the Super Mesh function while
the devices are connected via an Ethernet cable (you don't need to manually specify all the
parameters on subordinate devices).

If the device is in the router mode (the
Router
value is displayed in the
Device mode
line on the
Summary
page), you can configure it as a main device (the Master role). If the device is in the
access point mode (the
Access point
value is displayed in the
Device mode
line on the
Summary
page), you can configure it as a subordinate device (the Slave role).

The
Super Mesh
function cannot operate in both bands
simultaneously. Select one of the
bands (
2.4GHz or 5GHz
) for all devices of the configured network.
