    XT12 with XT8 (maybe XT9)

    I too had trouble trying to use an xt8 node on a 12 network. In my case it kept on going down. I think the 8 is simply an underpowered processor, which is the reason I upgraded to a 12 in the first place. So I can’t answer the questions you asked, but I wanted to share my similar experience

    Does the XT12 still has issues? XT12 vs GT-AX11000

    I think at a certain point if it works don’t mess with it! But that said, I love the 12’s and have had zero problems.

    Release ASUS ZenWiFi Pro XT12 Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388.21678 (2022/11/21)

    Just fyi I updated "dirty" without reset and it has been fine and fast.

    Xt12 vs 8

    has anyone here moved from the xt8 to xt12? What was the motivation? Was it worth the spend? I’m very intrigued by the upgrade, but the cost seems at the moment hard to justify.

    Release ASUS ZenWiFi XT8 Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388.21099 (2022/10/03 )

    Thanks - did a second "clean" reset and all fine. shrug. New firmware seems fast and stable so far

    Release ASUS ZenWiFi XT8 Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388.21099 (2022/10/03 )

    A small annoyance: router.ASUS.com doesn’t resolve for me now. Any ideas why? I can reach with 192.168.50.1 so no big deal but a weirdness after upgrading.

    Need to repalce my Orbi 850 for something more stable

    I replaced my 850 three pack with an ASUS xt8 three pack and am thrilled with the stability. Key for me was turning off “smart connect “ - with that off rock solid on latest firmware. A huge improvement from my Orbi nightmare

    XT8 node disconnects

    I have three nodes and am on the latest firmware. I had one node with frequent disconnects, but doing a complete down to the walls factory reset of all three helped tremendously. My only other advice is make sure the questionable unit has a very stable power source and is surge protected.

    Trouble adding new XT8 node to excisting network with latest firmware

    Triple check to make sure all are on the same firmware - router plus both other nodes. Then factory reset all of them. Then add the nodes one by one. For me the node that came with the package always slides in quickly and easily; my bought other node has to be searched for and added - a process...

    Release ASUS ZenWiFi XT8 Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386.49873 (2022/08/04)

    I lazily tried to upgrade over the previous version and that behaved very badly, so I factory reset all and now I’ve gone about 30 hours perfectly - rock solid. Router plus 2 in a daisy chain.

    Good mesh system for 2500 sq ft house? Tried Asus AX aimesh but not satisfied.

    My experience was disabling “smart connect” was the smartest thing i ever did. It only caused issues for me.

    Asus Zenwifi XT8 satellite loses speed during day / reboot restores

    I hate to jump to conclusions, but manually selecting channels "seems" to have solved it nicely for the time being. I'll hold the complete reset up my sleeve if the problem comes back. Many thanks for the replies.

    Asus Zenwifi XT8 satellite loses speed during day / reboot restores

    Thanks - given the construction materials and shape of the apartment and where the internet comes in, three are necessary. I've tried other configurations. The best answer would be to wire up, but I've yet to convince my spouse. They are all on 3.0.0.4.386_48706-g5f8f479 I did manually select...

    Asus Zenwifi XT8 satellite loses speed during day / reboot restores

    I have a three node zenwifi xt 8 - router plus two satellites: one wifi backhaul, one wired (homeplug) backhaul. The wifi backhauled satellite always starts the day after a reboot very fast - connected devices c500/600 up down. By midday that's down to 300 and sometimes in the afternoon it...
