    RT-AC68U+RT-AC57U V3 upgrade

    Thanks for your reply. Does GT-AX6000 cover all my other requirements, except for the range which I need to test? And what would be the advancement route? RT-AX6000 -> ??? -> ???

    RT-AC68U+RT-AC57U V3 upgrade

    Hi! Initially, years ago, I bought RT-AC68U and was happy with it until I moved to my new (existing) home. Here walls are very thick, and in the bedroom I started to lose signal. I had to buy RT-AC57U V3 and add it as a node. Connection is wired. (see image attached). Now, while walking around...

    RT-AC57U V3 Merlin support

    Allright, I've figured it out. When it comes to main router, there is no difference either its original firmware or Merlin. But node firmware Version 3.0.0.4.386.21649 2020/09/22 is the one to blame. I did a downgrade to Version 3.0.0.4.386.21647 2020/03/17 and was able to connect AiMesh...

    RT-AC57U V3 Merlin support

    I don't think I'm doing something wrong. There must be some kind of firmware issue or incapability. Maybe I should try different firmware version on both or any specific router? Can someone confirm which stable version works well?

    RT-AC57U V3 Merlin support

    Tried like this as well. Same result. Also, When RT-AC57U is just set up as a node in "Administration", I'm able to find it and start aimesh process on main router, during which it crashes. After that, node cannot be found any more and I need to reset node router again for another attempt...

    RT-AC57U V3 Merlin support

    I did not understand your answer. So if I will reset and put Merlin firmware on RT-AC68U and make it act as a main router and keep original firmware on RT-AC57U V3, reset it and connect it as AiMesh. Will it work? Will I be able to access all the features of Merlin? Or do I need to buy another...

    RT-AC57U V3 Merlin support

Should I upgrade the AC57U V3 router to a different one with Asuswrt-Merlin support OR I can use still it as a node...
