Greetings.
This happened to me a year or two ago and it just happened again. I have an RT-AC86U as my main router for a mesh system with 2 other Asus routers (Asus 1900's) with wired backhaul. Has worked great...
However this morning, internet was down, it still showed my custom SSID. I rebooted and I saw the default ASUS 2.4 and 5 SSID's and I immediately knew what happened. I was able to quickly get the basics up and running.
However, with it now doing it the second time is this a sign that it is having a hardware issue or something? Is this a "known issue"?
Fortunately I was around and able to get things up and running quickly.....but that is not always the case.
And thinking ahead.....if I get something like the GT-AXE16000 to replace it, what is an appropriate mesh node router to buy so I can extend the wifi6E to the mesh at a reasonable price?
The thought of starting from scratch is not appetizing but it may be time. I can't have this happening....
Thanks in advance for the help.
