I just picked up an RT-AX56U and added it as a node to my existing RT-AC68U and enabled ethernet backhaul. Everything looked good until I noticed a yellow dot beside the RT-AX56U in the AiMesh page. Hovering over the do displays
This router does not support the following feature(s) temporarily. Some configurations might not work as expected. Please regularly check your firmware version is up-to-date.
Does the RT-AX56U not currently support ethernet backhaul but it's coming?
Have I missed something in the configuration?
I have asuswrt-merlin installed on the RT-AC68U. Could that be a problem?
Am I going to have to swap router and node? I'd prefer not to do that as transferring all the settings will be a PITA.
The most important question is, is the traffic from the wired devices routed through the ethernet cable or wireless? Hopefully the answer is cable.
Any information will be much appreciated.
