Here we take M1800 and WR2100 as examples:

Step 4: It will go to "Scanning", then " Connecting".
Step 5: Wait until the System LED of the add-on router turns into solid blue, then relocate WR2100.
Step 6: Success and enjoy the mesh network.

@Dear Andy,
Yes, support. You can install mesh system with them.
“Are m3000 (ax3000) mesh unit compatible with later (BE11000 for example) mesh routers?”

@Dear Tom,
1. Please reset the M1800 to factory default by long pressing the reset button for about 3 seconds. You can release the reset button when the LED flashes.
2. Connect the port 1 of M1800 to the port 2 of M3000. Wait about 1~2 minutes. Then check if the mesh system is installed automatically.
“Try to use an m1800v1 as mesh client in mesh with mesh master m3000v1 with latest firmware. Don´t get them connected. What do i have to do?”

@Dear Tib,
May be the signal strength of the P4 received by the M3000 is very weak at the placement of the M3000. Please try to adjust the placement of both routers to enhance the signal strength and check if the problem is avoided?
“I have a set if m3000 v1 and a p4 v1. The p4 is the mai router as I live in an area where internet fluctuates and it’s good for mobile feature. The problem is i have these m3000 i cannot connect to the p4. It only works with the cable. Are they incompatible? I am unable to find this information. The thing is when I try to add from p4 app they are discovered, but fail on connecting. Firmware are up to date on all. I even reset all to factory. I am writing this as cable is not a good option fo me. Should I put one of the m3000 as main router?
Thanks.”
