    ASUS RT-AC3100 Firmware 3.0.0.4.385.20630

    Thanks so much. How has stability and performance been on the latest firmware version 3.0.0.4.385.20630 ? FYI: I also run two AC3100, with one as Main router and the other as AiMesh AP, with wired backhaul.

    AC68U AiMesh Wired Still Dropping Nodes on Wireless Signal Strength (Solved)

    Thanks so much for the feedback, KaziQ. With security and stability being top priority, I'm curious why not to use AiProtection - Network Protection, especially the 2 way IPS? Do you have another layer of security instead? Router Security Assessment Malicious Sites Blocking Vulnerability...

    AC68U AiMesh Wired Still Dropping Nodes on Wireless Signal Strength (Solved)

    So what firmware are you running on now? I saw one recently released (Version 3.0.0.4.384.45708) but I have yet to upgrade. In fact, forum posts about it again make me leery. I am still running 3.0.0.4.384_45149.

    Possible solution to AiMesh wired backhaul network instability

    The node is definitely picking up the wired connection and seems to stay that way (even if priority is set to Auto, opposed to set to Wired priority). I still cannot decipher if system log or wireless log even capture the state of node connection (wired/wireless) to main router. With that in...

    Possible solution to AiMesh wired backhaul network instability

    Is there consensus about what log entries indicate backhaul using wired or wireless? And what about log entries for possible fall back to a wireless backhaul?

    AC68U AiMesh Wired Still Dropping Nodes on Wireless Signal Strength (Solved)

    If I'm reading the logs correctly, despite the Wireless>Professional settings for 5GHz Roaming Assistant being DISABLED, the system logs show the client on the node disconnecting.

    AC68U AiMesh Wired Still Dropping Nodes on Wireless Signal Strength (Solved)

    I just turned OFF Roaming Assistant on my 5GHz, and confirmed it was off for 2.4GHz. UPDATE: wireless NestCam on 5GHz (set on the roaming block list, and closest to router) disconnected Sunday, 12/2 about 2pm. This morning, Monday, 12/3, another NestCam disconnected (this is the farthest from...

    AC68U AiMesh Wired Still Dropping Nodes on Wireless Signal Strength (Solved)

    Update: no drop of Nest Cams. One is on the roam block list because I expect it to be closest to router WiFi, and assume roam block list means it will not jumpnto the node WiFi. The other two cameras I expect to be connected to the node because it’s the strongest WiFi.

    AC68U AiMesh Wired Still Dropping Nodes on Wireless Signal Strength (Solved)

    Thanks for the clarity. I have it configured as you describe. The node's Connection Priority is set to "Ethernet" (not "Auto"). In the new location, performance throughout has been abysmal. I confirmed the Ethernet wiring was connected (because I suspected maybe I was truly using WiFi...

    AC68U AiMesh Wired Still Dropping Nodes on Wireless Signal Strength (Solved)

    Thanks, @Kingp1n, that is really encouraging. I’m running latest available firmware for RT-AC3100, which is Firmware Version:3.0.0.4.384_32799 Today as a test I relocated the node to another room, still on Ethernet but it is now also within WiFi range of the main router. I also added the WiFi...

    AC68U AiMesh Wired Still Dropping Nodes on Wireless Signal Strength (Solved)

    I also have two ASUS RT-AC3100 in my Ai-Mesh. One is primary router and the other is a node which is hard-wired. Just as @KasiQ stated my node is hardwired. The admin panels were configured to be wired not auto. My clients connected wirelessly to the node drop connection to the external...
