Does TP-Link XX530v support mesh Wi-Fi and whole-home coverage?

Yes, the Tp-link xx530v supports EasyMesh, so you can pair it with any EasyMesh-compatible router or mesh extender to cover larger homes or multi-floor setups. It works as the mesh controller and supports both wireless and wired (Ethernet) backhaul between nodes - wired backhaul takes priority for stability. Note that TP-Link says the XX530v is EasyMesh-compatible but hasn't obtained the official Wi-Fi EasyMesh certification. It also supports 802.11k/v/r for seamless roaming between nodes.
