This is just weird. I have an RT-AC88U as the main router in my AI Mesh (in access point mode, because my Windows Server takes care of all DHCP, DNS and so on), and I have a couple of the same router as nodes. I was trying to add an RT-AC68U to the mesh because I need one that can fit into a small, waterproof cabinet on the outside. But it just won't play ball! I first tried with Merlin and cable. No dice. So I flashed both the mesh router and the one I wanted to have as a node with the standard Asus firmware and tried again. First cabled, then over wireless. Still nothing. I replaced the network cable in case there was somethign wrong with it, and that didn't change anything either.
Finally I tried to add a spare RT-AC88U (I love those routers for stability, the 8 LAN ports and range, so I have spares that will last me a lifetime!) and that worked without a hitch. Does anybody have an idea what this can be?
