    System Log Check….?

    Greetings! I have been running an AiMesh system (AC86U with AC68U and AC66-B1 Nodes) for a number of years now, most recently incredibly stable on Merlin for about a year. I started having network problems (unstable internet on Zoom calls, slow speeds) and after a day of troubleshooting...

    Problem with GoCoax 2.5 Moca and Asus Router/Arris Docsis 3.1 modem

    Hi! Before I sell my GoCoax adapters, I thought I would check in here to see if folks have any advice. I'm running an AiMesh system, with a node in the basement that gets poor wifi backhaul, and set up the GoCoax modems to improve speed at that node. (Years ago I used Moca 1.0 adapters all...

    Lower Network Speed on RT-AC86U with 386.1

    I have been running a Merlin-powered network for a few years-- my main router is RT-AC86U, with two nodes, RT-AC68U and RT-AC66U_B1. I have gigabit internet (Docsis 3.1 modem) to the house, rated at 1200/35, but typically running at about 900/50, when I measure at the modem. In spite of those...

    Help with resetting RT AC66_B1

    I am running an AI-Mesh system, 386.1_2 on the main router (RT-AC86) and two nodes (RT-AC68 and RT-AC66_B1). I KNOW the smartest way to upgrade is to remove the nodes, reset the router, add everything back in and start from scratch, but I am always reluctant to do so because I can never figure...

    Problems with RT-AC66U_B1 and RT-AC68U_384.15_0

    Hi! I recently updated my network to 384.15. I have the main router, RT-AC86U, an access point, RT-AC68U, and an RT-AC66U_B1 that I have been using successfully as a repeater for a year or so. Ever since the upgrade I have been unable to use the RT-AC66U_B1. I have reset it several times...

    Help with Access Point/Repeater set-up

    Hi! I have recently switched from AiMesh to an access point/repeater configuration. Please forgive this very basic question-- I have never used either before: I'm pretty sure that I set up the main settings-- AiProtection, DNS, etc, from the router. But there some settings that I have enabled...

    Roaming with Router/Access point/Repeater

    Router: RT-AC86U Access Point: RT-AC68U Wifi Repeater: RT-AC66U_B1 I'm playing with Roaming Assistant. I noticed that I can adjust the transmission power on the access point, and reduced the power to help with overlapping signals. I also enabled Roaming Assistant on the access point (as well as...

    Client List Interfaces Wrong....?

    Just recently came back to Merlin after an AiMesh experiment. Everything is running smoothly, but I notice that my client list is displaying inaccurate interface information. Many clients are displayed as ethernet, when they are WIFI, many 5ghz WIFI clients show up as ethernet, or 2ghz. I...

    AiMesh Best Settings RT-AC86U 09-2018

    Hi! I have been running AiMesh happily since some time this summer. For the most part very stable, and I appreciate the improved performance around my house, as well as the simplicity of management. I like robust internet, but really don't like to tinker. Not educated enough, and not enough...

    QoS Mysteries

    I am trying to learn the ways of QoS, in order to improve VOIP calling. As recommended, I have installed the great script by @FreshJR, and am using adaptive QoS with manual download/upload bandwidth numbers. I am using stock firmware, because I am running AiMesh. My ultimate goal was to have...

    Help for Newbie with QoS/VOIP

    Hello all! Apologies in advance for very rudimentary questions. I have searched and searched, and honestly can't find clear answers-- probably because most of these topics are much more advanced than I am. My background situation is that I run a small home network, off of an ASUS RT-AC68U, with...
