In which aspect or in what usage, like:
- Extend the LAN from the Velop Parent Node to connect other wired systems?
- Extend the LAN from a Velop Child Node to connect other wired systems?
- Configure a switch based wired backhaul?
Be aware Linksys Velop does only support a wired backhaul in a direct daisy chain config from the Parent Node to the Child Node and then to additional Child Nodes. FMI: How to add a wired child node to the Velop system using the Linksys app
Troubleshooting Velop is like digging in the dark, it starts with the absence of Ethernet link status and activity LEDs (familiar also to Orbi users....). Some people state they use a wired backhaul over various media and switches, probably in AP mode only. FMI: Reddit: Velop backhaul over Ethernet through central switch
