Struggling with Asus ZenWiFi BE30000 aka 3 node BQ16 Pro bundle

[skypx]

Will post if I make the change - and thanks for the update. This is one long journey thats for sure.

I have switched the APs back to nodes, I’m really hoping for the best, but we’ll see how it goes.

I'm also back in AiMesh Mode (BQ16s) only 2.5 days though but so far so good, I've held off adding my XT8's into the mix until I have at least a week on no issues, but so far so good.

Today is my 6th day with no disconnections so far.

I wonder what the specific issue was that affected just apple devices??

For us it wasn’t just IOS devices. I switched back to node mode on firmware version 3.0.0.6.102_36869 and our Bose soundbar disconnected while watching tv. So yeah, no idea why.

I found out that I have to exclude the 2.4ghz band from my main network even though I have a separate Iot Network set up. i.e main network only has 5 & 6ghz bands.

Disconnects stops occurring once I do so. Enabling the 2.4ghz band in my main network causes the devices in my iot network to disconnect.

Hello, I’m assuming your BQ16 Pros and still working as intended. 2 quick questions, do you have MLO enabled and are the nodes connected to the network wirelessly or wired? Thanks

Wireless mesh and mlo is enabled for backhaul for the nodes.
