    Setting aimesh nodes

    Hi everyone, new to the forums. I am currently trying to set up aimesh using the older Asus Lyra Trio AC1750 with a pair of Asus AX6100. I was wondering if it makes any difference which nodes I use as a main node, i.e., will it affect the performance of the mesh network. Thanks

    RT-AC66U B1 left AiMesh 2.0 permanently

    The only reason I posted this thread here is because my test routers are running Asuswrt-Merlin 386.2_4 at the moment. I know RMerlin has no control over Asus AiMesh. Here is the description of the system: - AiMesh 2.0 wireless backhaul setup with AC86U main + AC86U node 1, AC66U node 2. -...

    Hi all, I have done quite a substantial fan mod on my Asus RT-AC68u (circuit with temperature-control, driving 2x 12V fans with a separate power supply) and wanted to ask whether it is possible to monitor the temperature of an AIMesh node?

I am noticing that with the Smart Connect feature enabled I get a DWB network on the Asus RT-5300. The issue is the...
