    Would appreciate Wireless Professional Setting recommendations of AIMesh with AX88U as the root router

    @L&LD So what is the reasoning to use new ssid`s. As for password, that always a good thing to change on regular basis. Why limit the length to 16charactors?

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 384.19 is now available

    I have an RT-AX88U and a RT-AC68U in a mesh setup. I do not experience the drops as many have experienced. I do believe it has to do with how you set the routers up prior to setting up the mesh through your master. So here is how I do the setup. 1) You must analyze the room your going to place...

    WiFi radar for RT-AC88u

    Thanks for the tip and link. This app is exactly what the doctor ordered. We got daughters router dialed in perfect and now she doesn`t have the neighbors next door playing havoc on her 2.4ghz radio. Not many 5ghz around so that band is not an issue. This will help will her constant video...

    WiFi radar for RT-AC88u

    I like. Will head over to daughters house later and perform a site analysis and get her router setup so she doesn`t have to fight with channel interference. Thanks for the link

    WiFi radar for RT-AC88u

    Good to know. I did find an app for Windows based machines called "WiFi Analyzer" that looks and operates the same as the Broadcom one on my AX-88U. Will give this a whirl tomorrow. Link to the app https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/wifi-analyzer/9nblggh33n0n?activetab=pivot:overviewtab

    WiFi radar for RT-AC88u

    I do know how to find the best channels, but I do like the WiFi Radar feature and would like to know if others who use the RT-AC88U with Merlin`s latest firmware have the WiFi Radar tab in their wireless settings. That's what I am looking for.

    WiFi radar for RT-AC88u

    When using the latest Merlin 384.19 firmware, does the RT-AC88U have a tab in the wireless section for Wi-Fi radar. Nice tool that I have used with my RT-AX88U and was hoping it is available in the AC modem. The RT-AC88u is in a home surrounded by lots of school kids using at home learning. We...

    Attaching fans to AC68u. What tape/adhesive to use?

    fans are quiet. I use the usb jack on my router since i do not use the usb for flash memory. I have had my fans installed for over a year and best improvement other than Rmerlin firmware. Router runs cooler and is more stable. Since fans install I have not had one freezeup and loss of radios...

    Attaching fans to AC68u. What tape/adhesive to use?

    I have this kit that I got on the net. Very popular and easy to find. They work great. You will see temps drops by at least 20 degrees c...

    AiMesh and Node Choice

    Welcome to the world of "Why did it connect here when logically it should connect there". I have a RT-AX88u as master and a RT-A68U as node. They are about 50' about and separated by many walls. Here`s an example of my connection. I have a ROKU stick on a TV and it is 5' from master. Some days...

    Aimesh router recommend?

    Interesting that this works when using app. When logging into the master from my desktop, the node data does not show live updates. Also with this mesh setup, one of the ROKU sticks that I have will not connect to the master which is 10' away, line of sight, no blocks, but connects to the node...

    Wifi Radar - Site Survey

    I follow the same path. Start Data Collection and let it run for about a minute or two. Then go back to site survey and press the Scan button and then the population happens. On the configuration page, make sure you click all the boxes on the bottom of the page so you can see what you want in...

    Aimesh router recommend?

    I currently have an RT-AX88u and a RT-AC68u setup in an AIMesh configuration. I agree with "tekrich" in that devices take time to switch between node and master and they connect to whatever they seem to want to connect too. I was hoping that with a node setup at one end of the house and master...

    AX88U Slow After Moving

    So prior to the move your saying that you were using AT&T with their modem. This means that your previous appartment was connected to AT&T fiber lines and related hardware. Now your directly connected to a wall jack the connects to the buildings switch. This is now serviced by WAVEG. You might...

    AX88U Slow After Moving

    looking at your scan results, i see your 802.11 is "an" and your bandwidth is "10MHz" This router should be showing 80MHz per your setup and "an/ac". Not sure what going on here. Maybe it`s time to start over using L&LD procedure out here in the forum.

    AX88U Slow After Moving

    what i would do is login to router. Go to wireless tab and then "Site Survey". Go to the setting page and start sampling for about 15 seconds. Then go back to "Site Survey" and press "Scan". I suspect you and others are using the same control channel and your in a crowded airwave. Manually...

    cannot see current Tx/RX and access time on node

    It`s looking like it is an AiMesh issue. When you reboot both devices, master first and the node within 10 seconds, the user devices connect to master and node and both node and master real time data shows up . As soon as one of the user devices either changes from node to master and then back...

    cannot see current Tx/RX and access time on node

    Currently I have a RT-AX88U and a RT-ACC68U, node, set up in a mesh network. Until I made sure both routers used Merlin firmware instead of the latest ASUS on the AX88U and latest Merlin on the 68U, the 5ghz radio would drop out on the node, but the lan connection on the 68U, node, would work...
