Wired Backhaul
My refund period for my Orbi is about to expire. Can a moderator comment (hopefully a NetGear Employee) as to when/if we will get wired backhaul? If it is in the next six months, I will keep my Orb...
Nick,
Here's something I posted this morning on another thread for the same topic:
I've added Ethernet Backhaul into my list of Candidate Features for a future Firmware update. I can't yet commit to a delivery date, but wanted to acknowledge that this is a valid use case and something we're looking seriously at.

I'm chiming in here to add a vote for wired backhaul. I'm looking to replace my 2012 Airport Express with a mesh solution to improve coverage in my 2350 sq ft home and yard. I'd prefer to use wired backhaul between the devices so I can move my AP to the basement (instead of living room where the APE is now) with satellite on the 2nd floor, opposite end of the home. I already have a gig-E link between those locations so wired backhaul is really a no brainer.
kc2kth please vote up and state your case for it at this link below for Netgear idea exchange there is an ongoing request/discussion for wired backhaul:
