Hate is a very strong word, I would categorise it more as “mutual disdain”

Tried with roaming assistance, it just disconnect and don't reconnect to stronger node, seems like roaming not function sometime.
Roaming assistance set to -70dbm for 5G, and -60dbm for 2.4G, may be I fine tune it a little bit to see if that help.
Currently, the aimesh is not available for 5300. I think you just upgraded none aimesh in your 5300.I have a 5300 with a 68W connected as a repeater. The latest update became available yesterday for the 68 and without any research I applied the update (blinking exclamation mark on the GUI). Afterword I could not get the 68 to connect to the 5300. I downgraded the software and its working again. I'm assuming the imesh update made them incompatible.
Me too, that's why I had it disable most of the timeWhen I enabled and tweaked it, seemed to have worse performance than when disabled. Would often see my phones on LTE as opposed to WiFi...they'd switch over eventually, but didn't see that behavior when RA was disabled. Tried tweaking based of RSSI received on laptop and phone with no real improvement. So have just left it disabled.
I was wondering if this might mean the eventual demise of the Lyra product line (esp. since it's had a rocky reception), but ASUS seems to be saying it sees a market for both:in the beta thread at some point it was mentioned that lyra and aimesh were separate implementations. I don't remember if there was a word on convergence or not
Just to add a few more details I measured signal level with my phone in the garage and the ainode was better than -50 dBm at the light switch and the thermostat while the airouter was -80 dBm. Both devices show connected to the airouter (actually both ainode and airouter but the UI shows a low signal level indicating connection to the airouter). The other variable is that the airouter has a 40 MHz channel and the ainode has a 20 MHz channel. I observed this channel bandwidth discrepancy in the beta firmware as well.I have two 68Us, one as a the airouter in my house and the other as ainode in a detached garage. The garage has a wifi light switch and a wifi thermostat. When I upgraded to 384 on both 68Us the garage thermostat show up on both the garage clients list and the airouter clients list and both indicate a single bar for level (not sure how accurate that is but the house thermostat shows four bars) leading me to believe the garage thermostat is really connected to the house like it was before the upgrade. This happens even though the ainode is physically located between the airouter and the garage thermostat.
Using channel 149 as an example: When the control channel is on Auto for 5GHz and channel 149 is set by the firmware, noise in the wireless log shows a constant - 92 dBm. If I then set channel 149 manually, noise moves to - 88 dBm. Can go back and forth replicating this behavior.
This could be totally normal, but I don’t remember seeing this behavior in 382? I changed channels plenty in 382 and check the wireless logs after making changes.
I’m not having any issues with my connection and everything is running great here. I’m leaving this here for @arthurlien and his team to check out. Thanks.
I’ve noticed this as well.I also see about 3-4 dBm more noise in Channels 149-161 compared to Channels 36-48.
Could send the system log for me?Main: AC88U

It's true, technical team is working on it currently. Sorry for make you inconvenient.Hi Arthur,
I have the GT-5300 already for some time and cannot understand why there's no new firmware (officially) yet available for this model, all other routers get often updates but the 5300, nothing in 5 months.
Rule the network, yea right.
I don't care for now about aimesh, but i want to have a working router and certainly if it's that expensive.
So any sign about new firmware for the GT, besides the answer from the support like 'yes we are working on it' ...
Running 19612 at the moment.
