Thanks @DaveR.
Just to close the loop for all on this thread, based on advice from a different forum, I downgraded the firmware to a previous version (4095). It seemed to work better for a day or two, with the 5GHZ-2 backhaul for most links (except one router that is a bit farther away - makes...
Well, the system is gradually moving to 5GHz backhaul with great signal quality. Just one node left that is on the 2.4GHz backhaul. I guess the firmware downgrade worked! Thank you all.
Update: I downgraded the firmware for all 5 of my routers to 42095. Did a hard reset of all 5 to factory settings, then rebuilt the mesh network from scratch. The first node I added to the primary router - perfect. It used the 5 GHz - 2 frequency for the backhaul, and the signal quality was...
Thank you @maximillion82 and @Raven76 for the helpful instructions on downloading the previous 42095 firmware. I've downloaded the file and will try that next.
(No surprise, a complete reinitialization of every node, plus switching out the primary node for one of the others, did not do any...
Hello,
@Raven76, Could you explain how to go back to 42095?
I have observed similar behavior to @L&LD. The weak connection appears to correspond to 2.4 GHz backhaul. But I don't think that means the 2.4 GHz signal is stronger. I find I cannot get the nodes to join the mesh at 5 GHz backhaul...
Sorry to jump in so late but I'm having very similar issues with my ASUS aimesh system.
I'm using the ZenWiFi AX system, 5 routers connected wirelessly (it's a big house with thick stone walls), the main router is connected via ethernet cable to the ISP-suppled modem/router sitting next to it...
