    ZenWiFi BD4 nodes ignore 5GHz channel setting – always stuck on ch 36

    **How to correctly add ZenWiFi BD4 (2-pack) as AiMesh nodes to an existing ASUS router** Background: BD4 units ship as a pre-paired mesh set. If you power them up together or add them incorrectly, they form their own internal AiMesh with each other instead of connecting to your main router...

    ZenWiFi BD4 nodes ignore 5GHz channel setting – always stuck on ch 36

    You were right all along - I apologize for overlooking your advice. I was so caught up in the troubleshooting process that I missed it. Thanks to your patience it is now working perfectly - both BD4 nodes are on the same channel as the main router (Ch 52). I will post a step-by-step routine...

    ZenWiFi BD4 nodes ignore 5GHz channel setting – always stuck on ch 36

    Thank you for the data point! That's very helpful and actually confirms my suspicion – if channel sync works correctly on your WiFi 6 AiMesh systems, this is likely a BD4 specific firmware bug rather than a general AiMesh issue. I am currently pushing ASUS support to escalate this to their...

    ZenWiFi BD4 nodes ignore 5GHz channel setting – always stuck on ch 36

    I tried the following procedure for a clean setup: Set up BD4 as standalone router Full NVRAM reset on the BD4 Explicitly selected AiMesh Node mode during setup Added to main network fresh Same result – router on Ch 52/160MHz, node stuck on Ch 36/160MHz. However, performance at 50cm distance...

    ZenWiFi BD4 nodes ignore 5GHz channel setting – always stuck on ch 36

    Thank you for this insight! I thought about this too. I have been wondering about exactly this – whether I should set up each BD4 unit independently first in a separate network, explicitly configure it as an AiMesh node, and only then add it to my main network with the RT-AX88U Pro. Have you...

    ZenWiFi BD4 nodes ignore 5GHz channel setting – always stuck on ch 36

    I performed a full factory reset on both BD4 nodes using the hardware method: Power off the node Hold the WPS button Power on while keeping WPS button held Wait until the LED starts flashing Release the WPS button Power off, then power back on Re-added both nodes fresh to AiMesh Unfortunately...

    ZenWiFi BD4 nodes ignore 5GHz channel setting – always stuck on ch 36

    Update – Factory Reset Test Results (NVRAM Clear) After your advice, I performed a full factory reset (NVRAM wipe via GUI) on the RT-AX88U Pro to rule out any configuration issues. Setup after clean reset: RT-AX88U Pro (Merlin 3006.102.7) – manually reconfigured from scratch, no saved config...

    ZenWiFi BD4 nodes ignore 5GHz channel setting – always stuck on ch 36

    Thanks for your reply! I understand your point, but I don't think it's a scanner glitch. I ran multiple speedtests and the results were very unstable – fluctuating between 5 and 470 Mbps at the node location, which has a wired 2.5G backhaul. When I set the router to the same fixed channel as...

    ZenWiFi BD4 nodes ignore 5GHz channel setting – always stuck on ch 36

    Hi, issue here with ZenWiFi BD4 nodes I have the same channel sync problem but with the newer ZenWiFi BD4 (WiFi 7) nodes connected to a RT-AX88U Pro (Merlin 3006.102.7) via wired Ethernet backhaul. Setup: Main router: RT-AX88U Pro (Merlin 3006.102.7) 2x ZenWiFi BD4 nodes – both wired backhaul...

    RT-AX88U Pro (3006.102.4) Wireless Settings Changes Not Saving – Apply Button Broken

    I have one more piece of information. I performed a factory reset (including clearing data) on all devices — both the router and the nodes. Then I manually configured the router from scratch using my preferred settings. Everything was working fine, and the 5GHz Wi-Fi was set to 80 MHz only...
