    AIMesh and Print Server Stopped Working

    Update: I was able to get my print server working again! I had to remove the AiMesh Node and instead set it up as an Access Point (AP). However, I would prefer to have this left as an AiMesh Node due to being able to see all connected devices in my network under one router UI. Is there any...

    AIMesh and Print Server Stopped Working

    I have three ASUS RT-AC68U's (One as the primary router, the other two as AiMesh Nodes). I have my printer connected via USB3.0 to one of my ASUS RT-AC68U AiMesh Node. For nearly four years, the print server worked fine for me as I was using LPRServer and used the AiMesh Node IP address...

    Question about used RT-AC68U

    I just purchased a used RT-AC68U (it is the stock ASUS version and not branded) and my intention was to flash Merlin and set it up as an AiMesh node. However, my question was, because this is second hand, is there certain ways to make sure I can erase any sort of settings or data that the...

    Using AiMesh + Access Point

    I wanted to ask if there are optimal settings to use when using both AiMesh and a separate Access Point. I set up a new AP as I needed a stronger wireless signal in a particular area of my home and I ended up recycling an old router I had that is non-ASUS (it is a TP-Link model). My current...

    Using AiMesh + Different AP?

    The area where I am trying to extend WiFi coverage is a bit far out so unfortunately positioning the nodes wouldn’t really help. However, I am curious if the RT-AC66U for $15 or $20 used makes sense as AiMesh modes? I see them for this much and I believe they do support both Merlin and AiMesh

    Using AiMesh + Different AP?

    I have two RT-AC68U's where both are set up in an AiMesh system (wired) that works flawlessly. I am trying to get some WiFi coverage in a specific area of my home, however, I do not have access to an extra AiMesh compatible device to hook up to my mesh system. I do however have access to a...

    Most Stable Firmware for AiMesh (ASUS-WRT or Merlin)?

    Good to know! Another question, is there optimal settings I should follow for my two RT-AC68U's? Because it would be a wireless node, I did make sure I use the appropriate bandwidth, a channel that is least congested. Though, I have seen some "recommended settings" guides for other ASUS routers...

    Most Stable Firmware for AiMesh (ASUS-WRT or Merlin)?

    I currently have two ASUS RT-AC68U's currently running the stock ASUS firmware. I have played around with the Merlin firmware recently, but I am generally curious, for an AiMesh system (specifically for wireless backhaul), I have read threads on folks suggesting holding off from upgrading either...

    RT-AC68U aimesh node dropped connections/ latency spikes with firmware 384.81049 and later

    I just wanted to say that I was having this very same issue. I have two AC-RT68U's (originally T-Mobile version flashed as AC-RT68U running Merlin-WRT), and at the time, both the AiMesh Node and Router were running the latest firmware of Merlin-WRT (384.19). I decided to only downgrade my AiMesh...

    Need Help with Intermittent Internet Issues

    So random update... I had a power outage for a couple of hours earlier this morning, and after the power came back up, the internet was not working at all. I then noticed on my ASUS Router admin page (MerlinWRT) there was a message of "Your ISP's DHCP is not functioning properly". I was...

    Need Help with Intermittent Internet Issues

    I appreciate you sharing your experience! I will not say I am an absolute expert when it comes to modem technologies, but can I upload my signal levels and readings from the Comcast modem here to get an opinion? Right now with the steps I have already completed, I am still 50/50 on whether this...

    Need Help with Intermittent Internet Issues

    For the last five months, I have been having intermittent internet issues where my internet slows down to an absolute crawl, to a point where it is unusable and is insanely slow. This requires either rebooting my modem (Comcast Modem, ARRIS TG3482G which is set in Bridge mode) and/or my router...
