    Mesh network with WiFi disabled on the router

    Thanks both, I've gone with abandoning mesh wifi and will use a couple of low power access points. One thing I found is that I could step down the power to a tenth of maximum and still have good coverage inside. I'm guessing it can't be a bad thing.

    Mesh network with WiFi disabled on the router

    Hi, I have an ASUS RT-AX88U running the latest Merlin firmware with an ethernet connection to an ASUS AC2600 (Blue Cave) as an AIMESH node at the other end of the house. My partner has health concerns and the main router is sitting right near her head. All of the necessary ethernet cabling...

    Windows doesn't connect automatically and when it does picks up weaker node in mesh network

    What chipsets / cards would you suggest?

    Windows doesn't connect automatically and when it does picks up weaker node in mesh network

    It's just hat source from Windows updates. Showing as "2023.70.0109.2018"

    Windows doesn't connect automatically and when it does picks up weaker node in mesh network

    @airgap I have a TP-Link AC1200. I originally bought an ASUS PCE-AX3000 but despite all options being to the contrary it always came out of sleep with no network connection. I'll try disconnecting the node again @L&LD @"noah way" I don't know how to implement your your suggestion or why a...

    Windows doesn't connect automatically and when it does picks up weaker node in mesh network

    I don't have control over the node's SSID. It's ASUS AiMesh and of course the purpose of a mesh network is that they all have the same SSID. I have already disabled the ability to turn off the wifi card to save power. When my PC just woke up it lost the internet and intermittently showed a...

    Windows doesn't connect automatically and when it does picks up weaker node in mesh network

    Thank you both. Here's what I've tried: * resetting Windows network settings * deleting the network profiles (which curiously do not get deleted when resetting network settings) * reset the mesh node No difference unfortunately. There is no setting for roaming aggressiveness in device...

    Windows doesn't connect automatically and when it does picks up weaker node in mesh network

    Hi all, Running Windows 10 updated to current with a TP-Link AC1200. I have two Asus routers one acting as a node. The stronger signal is in the low 50s dba and the weaker one low 70s. First, about half the time when I reboot or wake my PC reboot from sleep there is no network until I manually...

    Windows PC WiFi - latency and packet loss

    I can't recall perfectly though I believe the packet loss and latency increase was across all hops. I will try pinging the router next time. The router is an ASUS AC2900, though when I bypass it and connect to the modem WiFi the result is sadly similar.

    Windows PC WiFi - latency and packet loss

    google.com But I only ever start it in response to a problem I see with my remote connection to work or less responsive browsing. On restarting it runs fine typically for hours until I stop it.

    Windows PC WiFi - latency and packet loss

    I'll try that and see how it goes, thank you.

    Windows PC WiFi - latency and packet loss

    The issue is that latency will increase and some packet loss will creep in, visible in a traceroute. Other PCs on the network don't experience the issue. Windows 10 PC AMD Ryzen 7 3700X Asus Prime X570-Pro/CSM AM4 ATX Motherboard I have swapped in another wireless adapter in case it had an...

    wifi drops packets and speed on some networks while other devices work fine

    Thanks, I'll keep an eye on that and I've repositioned to improve the signal as much as I can. Meanwhile things just got weirder looking at a traceroute I'm running. I'm not losing packets but latency working remotely is very poor. And at the same time on another windows PC (admittedly closer...

    wifi drops packets and speed on some networks while other devices work fine

    > Does this happen after the computer has been put into a powersave mode by windows? It happens from a boot straight away or in minutes. Power saving is off (it's a gaming PC) I do get the issue you refer to on my laptop (even since stopping power saving) > Does toggling the airplane mode...
