Hi,
Came across this forum post and some excellent discussion regarding Tenda Nova. I have 3 Tenda Nova MW12 and I would like to implement ethernet backhaul. Please see the network topology of my home network.
I know this wont work. How can I make it work with the least amount of reconfiguration.

I figured it out. I connected the ethernet from the 1st switch to the LAN1 port of the primary node rather than the WAN/LAN port, and did the same of the others and it works. Weird. Has to put it in bridge mode before doing this. On the Tenda app it shows the ethernet backhaul symbol for the secondary living room.
