Thanks guys. Appreciate the replies. Ggruszynski, can you elaborate on the channel numbers? I'm not sure I follow there. I've got (1) 68U as router, (1) 68U as AP and a 66U as an AP in our loft.

Question for those that have installed the latest AIMESH firmware and then for whatever reason reverted back to a traditional setup (router + AP for example). Is the current aimesh firmware stable or are there issues in that configuration as well? Just wondering if I should roll back to a...

Well, I think for now I'm going to revert back to a traditional setup until the next release. I had more issues last week and ended up having to yank the node and reinstall an old Netgear router I had previously been using as an AP for clients in our MBR. Funny thing is, I had a heck of a time...

Thanks hotsauce. I'm giving it another day or so. I've currently been "up" without issue for roughly 24 hours. The longest stretch yet; however, my node is showing as connected via wifi even though I have it wired via Ethernet on the WAN port. It's been like this since the last reboot just over...

Hey hotsauce, will you please be sure to report back in a day or so on your rollback reliability with the existing firmware? I'm about ready to pull the plug on aimiesh as well. Spending too much time fiddling with this. Wife and kids are getting slightly irritated. Yesterday I came home from...

Have you double-checked that the network cable is plugged into the WAN port on the node? I messed this up the first time around and just realized it. As soon as I fixed that and rebooted, the router picked up the node and in the UI indicated that it was connected via wired even though it was set...

I'm a dumb dumb. I found my problem. I thought I had the right CAT5 cable behind my HT rack plugged into the WAN port on the node. I did not. I had the home run plugged into one of the LAN ports and my sonos bridge connected into the WAN port. I'm surprised it worked at all! Anyway, got that...

Still having node disconnects. Woke up to to no node in the web UI. Node shows up as a device in the device list pool. Have it set to wired backhaul. Hope they get this fixed. Pretty frustrating.

Do you think there'd be any benefit to doing another NVRAM and/or complete reset on the node? I did a NVRAM reset on it once after the final cfe (correct) installation, but that was it. Hoping that switching to wired backhaul and rebooting the router this morning gives me stability. Guess we'll see.

Ahhh, thanks! Didn't think of that. I will try that when I get home and see if it works. Ronald, are you having issues with your node(s) dropping off? I'm just wondering if this is still happening for most folks or if there are some who have not experienced this behavior at all.

woke up this morning to find no aimesh nodes in the web ui. node router was listed as a device and when I clicked on it, it showwed "AP mode" in the top header section of the window that opens... had to reboot both devices in order for it to reappear and reconnect other's still seeing this? I...

Thanks for the reply indark. Really appreciate it. I understand there is benefit to having routers as high as possible in a house, but the only physical place I could put the second 68U upstairs would be directly above the main router. So barring flooring, insulation and drywall, the physical...

Thanks Island, I will change it back to wired and reboot. Just found out our ISP is offering synchronous 1000Mb up/down for $10 more a month. Yeehaw! Just signed up.

I'm not sure I ever saw this asked/answered. Is there a consensus on what setting for the backhaul? Wired, Wireless or Auto? I'm cabled between router and node. Should I select "wired" or "auto"? Is it working correctly?

Howdy all. Looking for some advice. Recently setup aimesh and it appears to be working well. I still have a little bit of a weak spot in the corner of our house (5G), back master bedroom on main. Haven't really done any critical analysis, just using speedtest.net to get an idea of dl/ul speed in...
