    I have three RT-AX92Us configured as mesh in AP mode. The primary is set to a static LAN IP, but as far as I can tell there's no way to assign static IPs to the nodes. It's been mostly stable, but I've had a few weird outages lately where devices will be able to connect to one node but not...

    I only want to use 5ghz in the house. However, there is no way to disable the Aimesh node's 2.4ghz radio. Can someone tell me how to? What is the script? I will need to SSH the script from the main/Aimesh router, right? Also, is there anyway to disable the 2.4ghz radio if I was using the...

    I have an Asus RT-AC5300 set up in AiMesh mode with an RT-AC86U as a mesh node. Can I add a TP-Link Archer A6 as an additional Access Point to this mix? That is, I know the Archer A6 won't be an AiMesh node like the AC86U is. Can you mix AiMesh nodes with Access Points?

    with Aimesh 2.0 will separate wifi channels be supported when wired backhaul is used between the nodes?

    Pretty cool developments, can't wait to finally try these long awaited 386 versions once they are finalized as a general release in the form of an @RMerlin firmware (once some more time goes by waiting for the GPL of course).:):cool:

    Currently have AiMesh setup with RT-AC88U as primary node and an ethernet back-hauled RT-AC1750-B1. Just purchased RT-AX58U and trying to decide whether to just add it as another node or make it the primary node in the mesh. If I decide to make AX58U the primary node, do I need to start my...

This may not be limited to the specific model, i assume it could be applicable on others as well. Had two RT-AC66U B2 from 2019 in aimesh which was working well...

    Hello all, Wondering, I have an AC68U running as a node on an aimesh network with an AC3100 as the primary router. I have an IPTV nearby that's flaky on wifi that I'd like to plug into the ethernet port on my node router, can I do that, or are the LAN ports inactive when configured in aimesh...

    Hello everyone. Here's the issue I am having. I just recently purchased the GT-AX11000 router, which I'm very pleased with. The problem is trying to connect my RP-AC68U in AiMesh mode. When I try to use the Asus router APP to connect it as a node it never finds the RP-AC68U or through the GUI...

    Hi All, I have an Aimesh setup at home for the last 2 years: APs (RT-AC68u) * 2 Firmware: 3.0.0.4.384_45717 (although tried all including latest) Config: Fixed channels, 20MHZ for 2.4ghz, disabled these (airtime fairness, beam formations (except ac), Nat acceleration), everything else default...

    AiMesh = router/AP + nodes = root node + remote nodes AiMesh restricts guest WLANs to the root node, presumably because guest WLANs on remote nodes (as on traditional wired APs) would not restrict guest access to the LAN... not yet anyway. I know this to be true when the root node is in AiMesh...

    Hello, I can see on the forum that there is a lot of dislike regarding AiMesh. I really want to use it and it worked fine until a week ago. If anyone has the time and energy, please read my post and see if you can give me any advice. Mu initial setup was 2 x RT-AC68U and this worked...

    I've had my two router setup at home operating in AP mode for about a year. When I first set it up, devices wouldn't readily switch from one AP to the next, so I had to use the Roaming Assist feature to encourage jumps. Merlin had mentioned in recent months that ASUS is now incorporating...

    Hello guys. I am trying to build stable internet for my office but I am little confused. I have like 50 clients(10-15 on each node) in my AIMesh(2x AC-86U + 2x AC-1900U). For the last months I was using the default settings but my two AC-86U obviously had problems with that. Every day one of...

    Hello, I have two AC-86U set up in an AiMesh configuration, and the actual AiMesh node has a full complement of LAN clients (upstairs computer, printer, laptop, HDHomeRun) The problem is I want to add a fifth LAN client (Raspberry Pi). I would love to be able to use the "extra" WAN port which...

    Hi! Hoping someone can help me solve this puzzle. I have an ASUS RT-AC68U, with the latest firmware installed (3.0.0.4.385_10000 ). I also acquired a TM-AC1900, which I successfully re-flashed into the same (latest) firmware as my AC68U. The TM box seems to be doing great, but...when I...

    Have two RC-AC86U in a AiMesh setup. Can search for the node and find it. Can't get to the master. When doing a Device Discovery, I do get an IP Address of 192.168.50.35, but can't reach it through "Configure ". I get the node on my phone but never the master nor through the web. It does...

    Hey all, After some support received here in the past, my routers (GT-AC5300, RT-AC5300, RT-AC66U B1 - with wired backhaul) have been rock solid for quite some time. Finally gave up on bailing on the system as things were ... perfect for several months. As of late, we're regularly running into...
