Does it require the ethernet cable for connection to the router, or just for power? IOW, does it function as an extender without cable connection to the router?

The TP-Link Omada AC1200 Wireless Gigabit Outdoor Access Point supports Omada Mesh Technology, which enables wireless connectivity between APs for extended range. This means it can function as an extender without a cable connection to the router.

What is the broadcast range TP-Link EAP225-Outdoor AC1200 Wireless?

I have two of these, been using them for about a year. They are not being used in a mesh, just individual APs in separate areas of a farm. I expected better range than what I get, though I do think they do "ok" for the money. Results were compared using the speedtest app on an iPhone. The speed falls off pretty quickly when over 100 feet away. In one location that is wooded and has some out buildings in the way, the signal is usable at 200 feet but speed drops dramatically. In the other location, where the AP is mounted higher and the area is more clear, speed is better at 200 feet but that's still about the limit. A general comment, these APs have been nice and reliable. I haven't any any issue with them and they were easy to install and configure. Plus they support multiple SSIDs. So a nice product for the $.
