    Linksys MR9600 - Maximum mesh nodes

    Isn't AID more of a 802.11 wireless frame spec which all 802.11 protocols follow? If this is the case then the maximum number of nodes is a unsigned int16 max value.

    Linksys MR9600 - Maximum mesh nodes

    I haven't seen these 802.11 AID limits with the Linksys Mesh. Many users have 8 or more nodes.

    WRT1900AC V1 Problems

    Wow that is a really good deal for the EA8300. Does the WRT Internet or LAN LEDs come on when you power it up? If so you might connect a USB to TTL cable to have a look at the boot loader output.

    Can internally routed network access internet via VPN?

    A another option is to have your Merlin router as your main router and put the Velop system into Bridge Mode. This way you have one network for everything and increase the performance of the Velop system since it's no longer the firewall.

    EA9500 Serial Console to CFE

    I put mine back together and the top popped right off. I knew that was too easy and then remembered that when I first pulled the top off I broke some of the clip tabs. I doubt you will be able to remove it without breaking a few tabs.
