    Beta ASUSWRT 386 RC2 public beta with full functions AiMesh 2.0

    My setup is (now) GT-AC2900 main + RT-AC86U node and all seems solid. The GT-AC2900 does seem to be rather similar to the RT-AC86U. Apart from the disco lights.

    Beta ASUSWRT 386 RC2 public beta with full functions AiMesh 2.0

    I've just realized in fact that, entirely because of this thread, I have bought two new Asus routers. Could this whole beta thing be an elaborate sales ploy from Asus?! If so then good work Asus! I am quite happy - for the first time ever I am 100% satisfied with the wifi set up in my house...

    Beta ASUSWRT 386 RC2 public beta with full functions AiMesh 2.0

    I hereby sheepishly admit that I took the lazy route to solve this and acquired an RT-AC86U Black Friday bargain to use as the node. Now all is smooth, wired backhaul is working and, for the first time ever, I have a good signal to every corner of the house, where the RT-AC66U B1 couldn't...

    Thanks @OzarkEdge

    Would this affect these models if employed as nodes, or is it only when they are acting as main router?

    Good thought - I will try another laptop on same website on the node. Thank you.

    Beta ASUSWRT 386 RC2 public beta with full functions AiMesh 2.0

    Ah, that'll be it then: my message specifies the B1 B1. Which I have. Darnit. Thanks for posting that, it is much appreciated, you have saved me from a likely fruitless clean update to RC2-8 (and, more to the point, the whole reconfigurisationing after the update). Back to watching and...

    Beta ASUSWRT 386 RC2 public beta with full functions AiMesh 2.0

    It seems somebody over on this thread is having some luck: ... albeit on an AC86, not a GT-AC2900. Maybe it's time for that clean upgrade after all.... Will report back when I have had a chance to do it, hopefully this weekend. Thanks all.

    Beta ASUSWRT 386 RC2 public beta with full functions AiMesh 2.0

    Just had a thought: maybe it is the hardware revision of my RT-AC66U B1 coming into play again (this was behind the need to do the ATEMODE fix mentioned above). I don't suppose you might be able to tell me what yours are please? Mine is RT-AC66U B1, HW Ver.: B1, Production Year: 2017.

    I know nothing about that - would the router know even about that though?

    Beta ASUSWRT 386 RC2 public beta with full functions AiMesh 2.0

    Interesting. Do you see the message "* The following node(s) do not fully support this feature temporarily..."?

    Beta ASUSWRT 386 RC2 public beta with full functions AiMesh 2.0

    No, the ATEMODE tweak on the RT-AC66U B1 only enabled it to connect as a node with wireless backhaul - it wouldn't connect as a node at all before that fix. After I got that working, I tried to enable wired backhaul and was greeted with the following message: "* The following node(s) do not...

    Ah, so wired backhaul is now working with RT-AC66U, that's great to hear. Thanks for that, this is the encouragement I need to face another clean install, after the many many flashings during my ATEMODE issue.

    Beta ASUSWRT 386 RC2 public beta with full functions AiMesh 2.0

    An issue as arisen in the last few days that wasn't there before: if laptop is connected to node, then streaming video halts for a few seconds, then runs normally for a few seconds, then halts for a few etc etc etc. The issue is only on my main wireless network which is set up as Dual-Band...

    Okay, thanks for the tip-off. I'll sit-tight and test it on a future release. Fingers-crossed.

    Is this workaround likely to work for the RT-AC66U B1 as node or should I hold fire? Thanks.
