SInce it's mesh I can't see a way to force a device to connect to the root node. I have laptops with AC1200 and AC1900 network adapters and it doesn't matter where I place them I get the same approximate speeds, roughly between 150-200 on the 5ghz band and around 50 on the 2.4 band. I have hit...

No, it's turned off

I've turned off Smart Connect and everything is finally connected using a different ssid for all 3 bands. The fastest consistent speed I get on any device is about 160, with an occasional jump to about 200 but nothing faster. What should I check next?

Will do!

Thanks, I was wondering about that, I've read good and bad about Smart Connect and I'm having issues with some smart bulbs and switches not connecting so I'm going to turn it off. Do you recommend any settings that might help the Internet speed?

Using different SSIDs allowed me to assign 2.4 to some low priority stuff and 5 to others. Using the Dual-Band Smart connect feature means there is only one SSID for both bands and the router decides which band to use for each device. With a strong signal, always better that -60 to -35, I would...

My XT8 setup (router + 1 node) is providing great signal strength everywhere in my home, the node shows "GREAT" connection, but I can barely get 100mps on the 2.4 & 5_1 bands even though I have solid gigabit service. I have confirmed internet speeds ranging from 800-900+ at all of the ethernet...

I just setup an XT8 mesh system and I updated both routers to the latest firmware. I have gig fiber and I'm getting 900+ at all 4 ethernet ports on the main router but I can't get a wifi download speed faster than 150 on any of my home devices on either band (2nd 5ghz band is dedicated backhaul)...

"Thing"? ... it's a TOY, I admit it! Of course I had to tell my wife how much it will improve our wifi so she can watch Netflix in the bathroom without losing the signal;):D

Thanks. I just ordered the XT8 and I will need to "thread" the cord through a tight spot so I can't use a regular extension cord without cutting it first (I know it's not a big deal but I'm just making sure I have what I need before it arrives).

Does anyone know the length of the power adapter cord that comes with the XT8? Also, what size is the jack in case I need an extension?

I have the latest Asus AX firmware - 3.0.0.4.386_25524-g9977a2e I will go through the troubleshooting steps you provided to see if it makes a difference. Thanks

I have a single AX6600 (not mesh) and I am getting excellent wifi signal strength everywhere in my house, but our 3 laptops (Mac, HP and Lenovo) keep losing internet access. I can't find any specific time or activity when this happens, it can happen once or twice a day on any of the laptops...

That's what I thought, unfortunately.

I need to replace my router and the XT8 looks like it will be perfect for our new home, but we aren't moving for awhile and the budget is currently very tight. I thought I could just buy one AX6600 now and when we move buy a 2nd to get mesh, but I have looked everywhere and cannot find the...
