NETGEAR is aware of a growing number of phone and online scams. To learn how to stay safe click here.
Other mesh networks such as Eero and soon Luma support hard wiring your sattelites. I think its extremely important Netgear Orbi does the same. Especially for those of us who can.

+1 For Ethernet Backhaul, please Netgear make it happen.
I don't understand the limitation. My house is wired and having one SSID with such performance would be a plus. However, without the wire my satellite is not getting more than 200 Mbps due to the distance.
I returned an ASUS5300 + RT-AC68U (Router+AP) just to skip the disconnection when roaming from one to anotherone. I had the same SSID and still found the mesh idea worth a try.
I got shocked to see you cannot use the ethernet for backhauling.
Please make it happen :-)
