    How to keep a device on main node in a dual RT-AC86U router AiMesh set up?

    Thanks again! I added the device to the roaming block list. I think that should do it. And to answer your question, the nodes are about 100 ft apart and on different floors of the house.

    Best setup for the Asus RT-AC68U (ACTUALIZED to 2019)

    So I installed the latest Merlin firmware. And I’m in other settings. Under Advance tweaks and hacks I see 4 settings. 3 of them are already on No. One setting labeled “dhcpd: send empty WPAD with a carriage return” is checked Yes. Is that the one I have to switch to No?
