    RT-AX58U with RT-AC68U AiMesh node - all devices dropping from all networks regularly

    No, but there are places in my house where the speed drops off significantly - from 250-300+Mbps to 15. There are "dead spots" in my house, as confirmed by both my wife and me on multiple devices (phones, laptops, etc). That's what I was trying to address with the AC router as an AiMesh node...

    RT-AX58U with RT-AC68U AiMesh node - all devices dropping from all networks regularly

    Seems so far that after eliminating the AC router and not using AiMesh, things have gotten a bunch more stable. Still need to do testing to see how bad (or not) coverage is with just the one node, but things look promising.

    Solved Device not respecting DNS Director or (Yaz)DHCP Server settings

    I think I was under the impression that I needed to use it with YazFi specifically. I was learning about AsusWRT-Merlin and Pi-hole simultaneously. It looks like YazFi's "Force DNS" setting will make it easier to apply to any and all devices on a given guest network, but at the expense of loss...

    Solved Device not respecting DNS Director or (Yaz)DHCP Server settings

    I'm marking as solved, but is it better to use DNS Director or setting the DNS server under the DHCP Server tab for the device to skip my Pi-hole? My guess is I ought to use DNS Director since setting the DNS server is dependent on YazDHCP?

    Solved Device not respecting DNS Director or (Yaz)DHCP Server settings

    I am indeed using YazFi, here are more details: IP address range: Ethernet and main wifi: 192.168.36.0, range .20 to .254 Guest wifi: 192.168.42.0 (2.4GHz - IP range .2 to .254) and 192.168.45.0 (5GHZ - IP range .2 to .254) Media wifi (cameras, smart speakers, etc): 192.168.52.0 (2.4GHz - IP...

    Solved Device not respecting DNS Director or (Yaz)DHCP Server settings

    I have an Intel NUC running Pi-hole that I'm currently using as my DNS server for my network: I have a device on my IoT network that's pretty chatty (a baby monitor), and it regularly causes my Pi-hole to throw a warning that the concurrent DNS query limit is reached. I've tried both of the...

    RT-AX58U with RT-AC68U AiMesh node - all devices dropping from all networks regularly

    I'll try turning off my AC router altogether and hopefully the coverage on that side of the house isn't too bad...

    RT-AX58U with RT-AC68U AiMesh node - all devices dropping from all networks regularly

    Looks like I just had another disconnect event. As @gk802 mentioned, this appears a lot in the logs: Nov 29 12:23:54 wlceventd: wlceventd_proc_event(662): wl0.2: Disassoc F8:51:28:0B:04:15, status: 0, reason: Disassociated because sending station is leaving (or has left) BSS (8), rssi:0

    RT-AX58U with RT-AC68U AiMesh node - all devices dropping from all networks regularly

    I'll give these channels a try. I was previously on 11 and 44, respectively. What tools would you recommend I use for wifi analysis?

    RT-AX58U with RT-AC68U AiMesh node - all devices dropping from all networks regularly

    I set to 20MHz and 80MHz respectively, and selected channels based on my local area (used a wifi analyzer app on my phone to identify the best channels). I'll report back if things improve.

    RT-AX58U with RT-AC68U AiMesh node - all devices dropping from all networks regularly

    The node's Backhaul Connection Priority is set to 5GHz Wifi First, and Ethernet Backhaul connectivity is disabled; other than that, all other AiMesh settings are default/auto. Router itself is also on auto for channels/bandwidth for both (2.4GHz: 20/40MHz bandwidth; 5GHz: 20/40/80MHz...

    RT-AX58U with RT-AC68U AiMesh node - all devices dropping from all networks regularly

    Hi folks, I've been pulling my hair out for a while trying to figure this one out. All of my devices on all of my networks (main network, media device network, IoT) will regularly drop out simultaneously. This has been going for months now, and seems to happen once or twice a day for anywhere...

    YazFi Allowing cast traffic from guest network to IoT (media) network

    This was super helpful (and easier for me to parse than trying to manually run through the script and do all the substitutions myself)! Here's what I found that the script does to allow one-way from main LAN to guest network. (If helpful I can also attach the full iptables-save output in case...
