35 How do I connect three or more
HarmonyOS Mesh+ routers to the same
network?
Scenario 1: HarmonyOS Mesh+ Wired Networking(Via Network Cable)
There is no specic limit on the number of secondary routers connected to a main
router. However, it is recommended that the total number of routers does not
exceed six, and the cascading levels does not exceed three. If there are more than
six routers, or more than three cascading levels, the routers may not function
properly.
Step 1
Congure one of the routers as the only main router to access the Internet.
Step 2 Connect the second router to the main router using a network cable.
Step 3 Connect the third, fourth, and other routers to the main router using network
cables. Alternatively, connect the second router to the
rst one using a network
cable, and then connect the rest routers to the second one in wired mode.
----End
The number of LAN ports varies according to router models. The maximum number of
secondary routers that can be connected to a main router through network cables is
dierent. The preceding wired networking solution is for reference only.
Scenario 2: By Wi-Fi repeater or wireless HarmonyOS Mesh+ networking
A maximum of ve secondary routers can be connected to a main router through
Wi-Fi relay or HarmonyOS Mesh+ wireless networking.
Step 1
Congure one of your routers as the main router to access the Internet.
Step 2 Connect a second router to the main router using HarmonyOS Mesh+.
Step 3 Connect any additional routers individually to the main router using HarmonyOS
Mesh+.
