Yes. That'll work best with wired backhaul though considering the available bands, and the ET12 being tri-band versus quad-band. The BE30000 can negotiate 2.5gbe on its 10gbe ports. You'll also want to make sure the BE30000 is on the latest firmware. The ET12 won't support many of the BE30000's features, but if those are your only devices it'd still be best to have the BE30000 set up as the primary router. If your buying the 3pk of BE30000 you may not need the ET12, as the BE30000 does have even better coverage. Meaning you may be able to use the ET12 for something else, or maybe sell it. There are still some issues with the implementation of Guest Network Pro on the BE30000's firmware, particularly with the 2.4Ghz band while using non-BE30000 nodes. So, you might want to set up the ET12 as a separate AP versus a MESH node as something like a dedicated IOT AP. At least until, and if, there are some firmware updates to resolve the 2.4Ghz issues with nodes while using Guest Network Pro, it may be easier to set up a different AP for that band.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.yes, they will work, but you wont get max throughput since they are not wifi 7..
