Using an ethernet backbone
-
I want to set up a mesh wifi using the instant routers, do I need 2 routers, or one router and one node. Basically can I use 2 instant routers together to form a mesh, linking them through the LAN and WAN port respectively?

Get 2 Instant Routers. Set one as your router with DHCP, set the other to bridge mode.
Cable them using LAN > LAN ports on both devices.

Thank you!

@john-montgomery That route would work, but you will see greater performance if you mesh the second AmpliFi Instant router to the primary in DHCP mode and enabled Ethernet Backhaul.
