The average home doesn't have 180-ish IoT devices in a single home router range.

Nice to see an old acquaintance replyingIt can't easily handle 250+ devices on a /24 subnet that Asus routers are locked to.
Try powering down your entire network (the longer, the better) and bringing it up in order: Router, Switches, Client devices (wired), and Client devices (wireless). Waiting a full 10 minutes or so before moving to the next category and turning those devices on.
Not what I was expecting from a $1000 router
Does that mean 4 radios?
Thanks! I've been starring at the GT-AXE16000 for so long that completely missed it when Asus released GT-AX6000 at 1/3 of the price.This $1000 router has the same 2.4GHz radio as $300 GT-AX6000 router. Both will work the same way with your IoT devices.
Bell got me to the 3Gbps plan "to save me money"
future proof if Rogers or Bell get those 8Gbps to my house one day
But the mighty Merlin uses it as his main router! That sets the standard for Canadians up there eh?A proper business class multi-AP system with PoE power and x86 firewall is the better return of investment. You already have the wires. Explore options and do it right once. You can have 10Gbps LAN, but you don't need Gigabit Wi-Fi for your mobile and IoT devices. Not too expensive 4x AX1800 class APs placed around the house will support more clients, have wider coverage area and achieve higher aggregate throughput to your existing today devices.

Expensive, most likely.How was it?
- Add VLAN in LAN settings.
