I have been searching for an answer for a few days already, but nothing is clear.
Anyone has real life experience for VOIP on AiMesh and other Wifi Mesh systems?
How well does the AiMesh handle roaming between 2 nodes when I am on a VOIP call? Will I experience a dropped call or a brief interruption?
If AiMesh is not working well for VOIP, which Wifi Mesh can?
Thanks.
Due to FAQ information are making user confusion, it has been removed. Actually, We don't limited how many Node can be added.

I have a 68u as main router on one side of my house in the office upstairs. Another 68u is downstairs in living room in middle of house. I have a third 68u in gameroom upstairs. My firestick in the media room will connect all the way to the office router when the gameroom router is 10 feet away between them. They need a way to assign a mac address to a node. Roaming block does not work.Roaming Assistant 'performs' node steering within the AiMesh.
Smart Connect 'performs' node band steering within a node. The 68U does not support Smart Connect, so no band steering within that node.
Ultimately, the wireless client decides its connection , subject to the above guidance.
I tried AiMesh with 2xRT-AC68Us and have concluded that without Smart Connect, I must use unique SSIDs to band steer manually.
I upgraded to 2x86Us and have concluded that Smart Connect at least conceptually completes AiMesh as I am using identical SSIDs with good results... I say conceptually and good because I only have so many wireless clients to test with here.
Maybe your connection drop/delay is the client trying to choose between two node bands with no help from the router.
For fun, disable Airtime Fairness to see if it affects throughput.
