    Any AT&T (or other) Fiber running AsusWRT direct to ONT (bypass)?

    The Verizon Fios thing isn't hard... the gotcha is having to release the DHCP on their router, then unplug their WAN connection from their router after its released... then plug it into your asus router and voila... (only gets slightly trickier if you have MOCA involved) .... AT&T is a different...

    Really disappointed with AiMesh, I switched to something else

    Im taking a guess but i think some of these extensions might help with places that need multiple APs due to metal lathe in the walls... its a fine line setting the roaming with just the slightest overlap using roaming assistant...

    ASUS RT-AC86U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.384_81351

    To quote a buddy on another forum... The exits are clearly marked... Also its a logic fallacy to expect something to be 100% flawless... Seriously open up some support tickets, send Asus some feedback... I have yet to find a device that does everything flawlessly without spending a fortune on it...

    Thinking of eventually replacing both my ageing RTAC68s

    Actually ended up picking up an Asus RTAC86 and are using the other AC68 as a wired AImesh.. was using it as an AP but figured id give it a go.... Though as others said.. think ill hold out on the AX devices for at least another year.... Swapping it out for the main AC68 was a noticable...

    Anybody Seen any New AiMesh Firmware, Beta or Official?

    Currently I'm mixed on AIMesh.. though I live in a place with metal lathe/mesh in the plaster walls... Iv tried it and AIMesh even wired was a bit of a pain.. But it does seem to work.. Though am probably going back to wired AP vs wired Aimesh... though it does resolve the issue of that one AP...
