I- 8 Posts - ikaHello! There is a place where I need to help to extend WIFI coverage. The current setup are two ax58u models (one as main router and one as wired AiMesh node). The new "mancave" basement would get two ac68u as wired nodes (Yes, I told them that those models are too old and they should get newer...

A- 16 Posts - avoleI've been encountering a weird Wi-Fi issue with my AiMesh setup where every few days, the Wi-Fi connected in AiMesh mode gets disconnected, displaying an error on my phone/iPad stating "incorrect password." The temporary fix I've found is manually rebooting the node, but I'm looking for a more...

H- 2 Posts - homer68Hi I have now the following Aimesh setup: RT AXE88U pro as router and 4 XT8 nodes. My idea was when buying the 88Upro that I would connect 1 XT8 node by cable to the router and that then the other 3XT8 nodes would be capable of using the 5GHz-2 band from the wired backhauled XT8 node, which...

H- 4 Posts - HarryMuscleIt looks like most if not all official instructions on how to setup an AiMesh node say to use the WAN port on the node router if using ethernet backhaul. I was just curious if this actually matters. Can you use one of the LAN ports, even during setup of the node? Anyone play around with this...

Would it slow the XD6 down or would devices that connect...

H- 11 Posts - HarryMuscleIf I'm using ethernet to connect an AiMesh node to the main router, does the node need to be within Wi-Fi range during the setup process? Or can the node be configured if it's only accessible by the main router via the ethernet connection plugged into the WAN port on the router? Thanks, Harry

S- 8 Posts - snovvmanWith AiMesh (86Us), I see that each node uses the same channels. Accordingly, the nodes' signals are overlaid on top of each other, with farther nodes being weaker than ones nearby.

The configuration was a pain, I had many problems when I tried adding it to the aiMesh but in the end I succeded. My main router is an asus-merlin AC68U, while the Lyra has the stock firmware from...
