Hello,
I just got No.2 RT-AX88u routers to upgrade my home network. Both have been updated with latest ASUS firmware (before I also tried Merlin 384.14 but unsuccesfully) but I'm experiencing the following issue I did not have with previous ASUS routers.
1 router is connected to FO modem (1 Gbit) and 2nd is in AiMesh mode located in a different room and then connected via Ethernet cable to make the connection more stable.
In AiMesh mode the 2nd router should act as AP both in WiFi and wired mode but I can not get any of the 8 Gbit ports working at all with the devices I connected (Sony TV, Nvidia Shield TV, Xbox, etc.).
As soon as I connect the Ethernet cable of a device to the port then the router "disappears" from the status page of the router.asus.com interface page (which points to the Master).
Since I'm really interested in having also the Gbit ports fully operational, may someone suggest some settings otherwise I will return the 2nd router.
Thank you in advance
