How to set up Tenda Nova mesh for wired backhaul - MW5, MW6, etc.
This should work, with all 6 nodes configured with the same Mesh network, the 3 relying on Wi-Fi should automatically connect to the nearest wired nodes. One issue I did recall someone mentioning is where they had a wireless node keep connecting with another wireless node, resulting in poor speeds from going over a double wireless hop.

I suggest start by setting up the wired nodes and ensure they are operating fine, i.e. showing the <--> indicator for the Connection Quality status. Then join the wireless nodes one by one and run a speed test before setting up the next node. If a wireless node gets very poor speed, then it is likely linking up with another wireless node, in which case you can try moving it to another spot or avoid using a node in this spot.
