    Extending my WIFI - Suggestions?

    I just wanted to take a minute to thank both of you - JDB and Maxbraketorque for you input. I picked up the RT-AC86U and did as you suggested by making it my main router and the AC3100 my AP. Everything is working FLAWLESSLY and my signal throughout my house (and into my back yard) is full...

    Extending my WIFI - Suggestions?

    OK I notice the RT-AC86U supports AiMesh. I'm wondering then if I went with this, which should be the 'main' router (or does it matter) - The RT-AC3100 or the RT-AC86U ?

    Extending my WIFI - Suggestions?

    I have an RT-AC3100 router and I want to extend it's WIFI signal to areas of the house that have some dull spots. I run a cable from the router to a gigabyte switch, which then runs cables to 3-4 computers. I have a free port in the switch so I should easily be able to hardware something in...

    New RP-AC68U repeater won't connect to RT-AC3100 Router

    Limited to 5 images per screen, so here's the next few... This screen shows that I'm running the RP-AC68U in REPEATER mode, as I'm only trying to extend the range of my existing wifi network into areas of the house that have weak spots. This last screen is the SYSLOG dump - as you can see...

    New RP-AC68U repeater won't connect to RT-AC3100 Router

    and FTC - I'm able to use a LAN cable from my PC to plug into the back of the RP-AC68U. ONLY this way, am I able to access the set-up and router configuration screens. I'm unable to download the firmware update as I have no access to the internet this way, so what I did was plug into my...

    New RP-AC68U repeater won't connect to RT-AC3100 Router

    Can I ask what 384 FW and 380 FW and 382 FW are? And how did you confirm it's not compatible? I'm wondering if my RP-AC68U is incompatible with my RT-AC3100 then?

    New RP-AC68U repeater won't connect to RT-AC3100 Router

    OK, I've made some real progress... I reset the RP-AC68U and connected a PC directly to one of the ports in the back. I was then able to connect to my 2.4 and 5g wireless networks through the RP-AC68U initial set-up (this is big progress) on my PC that I had directly connected to the...

    New RP-AC68U repeater won't connect to RT-AC3100 Router

    I've tried the reset button, but all it does it give me this blank Asus page where it appears to be in an endless loop. My reset button doesn't appear to be stuck as I can press it in with a paper clip.

    New RP-AC68U repeater won't connect to RT-AC3100 Router

    Nobody has any ideas? I'm even having issues with ASUS themselves, as they keep thinking I'm referring to an RT-AC68U router! Very frustrating experience here so far...

    New RP-AC68U repeater won't connect to RT-AC3100 Router

    I wanted to extend my wireless signal in the upstairs of our house, so I purchased the RP-AC68U repeater. In the basement is our RT-AC3100 router. The instructions on the RP-AC68U are horrible at best. I try the first step to connect via WPS by pushing the WPS button on the AC3100 and hold...
