    Asus Router app and "unintentional" activation of remote access to router

I have a AC3100 as the Node. Didn't really notice much difference then using the 2.4 Nano station from house to shop. 1...

    How strong of a Signal do you need between many and Node for AIMESH to work?

    Hi, I was wondering how far away I could place the node from the main router and still have them work well, Also can I place Node and then have another node hook up wireless to that node or does each node need to connect to the main router?
