Stick with the Deco M5, at least with the Deco's you can mix and match with the better units and you get wired backhaul. You lose that ability with these.

Description says "Ethernet Ports—Two (2) Gigabit Ethernet ports (1 WAN + 1 LAN) available on the router." and the photos of the satellites only show a power input, so I'm guessing not.
