    Register Your Product Greyed out

    I registered my first GT-AX6000 just fine a couple of weeks ago. Now I got a second one but I am not able to register it under my account. I entered the serial number correctly 100% and even tried a few methods substituting the 1 with an I or the 0 with a O but I am sure when I am entering is...

    What happens when you set 2 different routers with the same SSID?

    I replied to you here: https://www.snbforums.com/threads/complete-n00b-3-to-aimesh.82739/post-814112 The Linksys VELOP is completely out now! Before I dug deep into this, I never realized that the VELOP was connected to the main box from the ISP and thus, my GT-AX6000 was actually getting the...

    Complete n00b!3 to AiMesh

    I followed the instructions exactly as you mentioned minus the WPS part. Upgraded both GT-AX6000 routers to the latest BETA v9.0.0.6.102.3506 then reset both. I then connected the new GT-AX6000 after the reset via LAN to my main GT-AX6000, went to the AiMesh tab, and let it add it. After...

    What happens when you set 2 different routers with the same SSID?

    This is not a setup I would do I was just curious because today I had the ISP technician visit me to help me with my future setup of the 2x GT-AX6000. Basically, my main issue was, my main router upstairs in my office which was the GT-AX6000 is connected to some cheapo Linksys VELOP router...

    What happens when you set 2 different routers with the same SSID?

    Call me curious George but if I have 2 different routers, say an AX-GT6000 in one location in my house and a Linksys or any other brand router in another location, if I set both routers with the same SSID and password, would devices switch between them seamlessly depending on the signal strength...

    Buy rt ax86u

    I only had the AX-88U before, not the AX-86U but the GT-AX6000 has better wifi coverage than the AX-88U if that matters. I can get signal in places that I couldn't with the AX-88U. For example, my router is located on the 1st floor in my house and I could still get signal downstairs in the...

    Complete n00b!3 to AiMesh

    The 2.5GbE switch prices are 5 times more so I'm gonna skip that for now as I don't really need it, I thought of the future when my ISP might introduce faster than 1GBPS internet but until then I'll stick with 1GbE. Would 3 of these do the trick? D-Link 5 Port Gigabit Unmanaged Metal Desktop...

    Complete n00b!3 to AiMesh

    Yes, in my office, there are 2 LAN ports next to each other and those ports are connected directly to that main white box from the ISP. I'm not sure I understand what you mean by that $10 switch though, how would that help if the 2nd router is located downstairs and the outlets downstairs are...

    Complete n00b!3 to AiMesh

    Thank you so so so much for this detailed explanation and walk-through! Just what I needed! You explained it better and simpler than the ASUS manual would :cool: Not sure about one thing though, the main box from my ISP is located on the ground floor next to the door, from that white box, it...

    Complete n00b!3 to AiMesh

    I live in a 2-story house and my office is located on the upper floor where my main router which is the ASUS GT-AX6000 connected via LAN to my laptop. I get a strong signal in other rooms that are on the upper floor but downstairs there is a signal but the speed is very slow so I have a crappy...

    Buy rt ax86u

    Everything now has this PRO in it even though there's nothing "PRO" about it maybe 1 or 2 extra features but nothing that is really meant for PRO's. Anyway, the GT-AX6000 has been the best and most stable router I have ever used to date! That's "PRO" enough in my books.

    ASUS GT-AX6000 constant blinking red light

    Where do I enter those IP addresses in those lists for the diversion feature? Or is that just a HOSTS file for the computer?

    ASUS GT-AX6000 constant blinking red light

    Life saver!! that worked!!!! What's the reset button at the back for then if the WPS button is what's used to reset the router? Why would me adding Microsoft Telemetry addresses to the firewall blocking list brick the router and cause it to go to an endless rebooting loop, it wouldn't detect my...

    ASUS GT-AX6000 constant blinking red light

    So I added around 64 firewall blocking rules that are the Microsoft Telemetry address, hit apply, then the router disconnected my laptop as if it was rebooting. When it rebooted, I saw the connection come back on for 2-3 seconds then the router reboots again. I tried the 30-30-30 restore metho...

    Why does enabling QoS give me a Trend Micro License Agreement?

    On my GT-AX6000, turning on QoS gives me a Trend Micro license agreement that I need to accept. If I am not interested in AiProtection at all so why is TrendMicro involved here? I want 0 security features enables by AiProtection just wanting to try out QoS. On a side note, what do you recommend...

    Without QoS enabled, how does my RT-AX86U allocate bandwidth?

    Does QoS slow down the max bandwidth provided only 1 computer for example is downloading a gigantic file?

    Asus removed Release Date for everything.

    Yeah just noticed this, also for my router, so dumb that I need to select my router model when I am already on the router's download page: ROG Rapture GT-AX6000 | ROG Rapture GT-AX6000 | Gaming Networking｜ROG - Republic of Gamers｜ROG Global Edit: Now they fixed it, I now longer need to select...
