The MW12 has three Ethernet ports, so with the above diagram, it should be possible to connect both the TV and computer to the secondary node, in addition to the wired link.
For those that currently have MW6 or lower model nodes, I have come across many reports of stability issues when adding MW12 nodes to the mesh, regardless of which node acts as the primary node. So for those who currently have MW3/5/6 nodes, I suggest only adding further MW6 nodes or be prepared to replace all the nodes if upgrading to the MW12.
Finally, from my own experience, the Canon G4510 and G4511 printers both have wireless stability issues with the Tenda MW6, even just one room away from a Tenda Node. It is the only wireless device we have that doesn't get along with the Tenda Wi-Fi. As these newer Canon printers don't have an Ethernet port, I set up an old TP-Link 2.4GHz wireless point just for the printer as a workaround. So far we haven't had any further issue with it.
Thank you for your feedback, in my case, i don't have any nodes for the moment, i start from nothing.
So I think my schema would be possible from what you said with a fresh MW12 installation, i could combine ethernet and WI-FI backhaul on the same network.
The other thing is that maybe i could remove the switch to connect over ethernet directly TV and computer on the secondary node because there is enough ethernet port.
Just a doubt about the switch removing because clients on the secondary nodes has to be connected on the WAN ethernet port and not LAN and i thin there is only 1 WAN port on each node...
