I have an RT-AX86U as my main router and the ZenWifi AX minis setup as wired backhaul mesh points. All work well, except that when I connect my laptop to the xd4r (router) module on the lan port, I can only connect at 100MB connection. I had an older ac68r before in this spot and it worked great passing a gigabit connection through the mesh. the mini claims to have all gigabit ports - has anyone else had success connecting this way? I do know that the Wan port is connected at full gigabit back to the main router.
Full setup:
AX86U - lan(1gb) to ZenWifi xd4r (WAN - 1gb) (wireless connections to this node confirm over 100Mb throughput)
ZenWifi xd4r lan to gigabit LAN connector on laptop - only connects at 100MB. If I force my adapter to 1000, I get no network connection.
Any thoughts? I'm wondering if there's a bug in the mesh implementation on this device...
