    Odd SSID with RT-AX86U in AP mode?

    Thanks. I had, in fact, not fully reset the AX86U. Deleted it from the mesh network, went through the process of re-adding, and it is now showing the SSID consistent with the main router and other mesh node. I don't know if the way it was broadcasting its SSID impacted anything from a...

    Odd SSID with RT-AX86U in AP mode?

    Just checked and you nailed it. That's exactly what it is.

    Odd SSID with RT-AX86U in AP mode?

    I've been upgrading my Asus mesh system, recently upgrading the primary router to an RT-AX88U Pro. I reset an RT-AX82U and was finally able to get it set up as an AP node (hardwired backhaul). This morning, I did the same with an RT-AX86U as I wanted to give the RT-AX88U Pro a week or so to...

    Adding an AIMesh Node - why is this so hard?!?

    Bumping this as others might find themselves upgrading their Asus router and find out the AiMesh setup isn't recognized by the new router. I recently upgraded my RT-AX86U to an RT-AX88U Pro in order to take full advantage of my ISP's 2Gbit service (along with new switches, etc.). I struggled...

    Hardwired speeds suddenly halved- RT-AX86U

    Thanks for the helpful input thus far. Prior to hard resetting, I began to work through the various settings tab-by-tab. When I got to Adaptive QoS, I switched it (Enable QoS) to off. I had somewhat recently established a bandwidth limit for my Guest network and, when doing so, it has enabled...

    Hardwired speeds suddenly halved- RT-AX86U

    Thanks. Just installed the Merlin version. It's up and running and look forward to seeing the additional capabilities it brings. Unfortunately, the reduced hardwired speeds behind the router still exist. Just wondering if I could have changed a setting within the firmware in the spirit of...

    Hardwired speeds suddenly halved- RT-AX86U

    I haven't but at this point should probably give it a shot. Can one install over existing Asus factory firmware or is a reset required before installation?

    Hardwired speeds suddenly halved- RT-AX86U

    RT-AX86U behind 1 Gbps service. It's been rock solid forever, pulling 900+ down and up consistently. I noticed, however, my hardwired speeds- both up and down- have mysteriously dipped to <500 Mbps and I can't figure out what might be causing the problem. The Internet provider was out today and...

    Mesh satellites only allowing 2.4GHz connections?

    RT-AX86U system with three XD4 mesh satellites behind it (all hardwired backhaul). Two of the XD4s have devices connecting to its 5GHz signal but one of the XD4s only shows connections at 2.4GHz (there are several devices that are absolutely capable of connecting at 5GHz, and do when connected...

    ZenWifi AX Mini XD4- version 3.0.0.0.4.386_49599 -- anyone using?

    Noticed this firmware update is available for upload but haven't seen any forum chatter regarding its performance/reliability/etc. Anyone using for their mesh satellite units? Thanks.

    ASUS ZenWiFi AX Mini (XD4) Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_48970 - issues updating all nodes?

    Great advice and thanks. I used a different browser- in safe/private mode- and the other two nodes were updated without issue.

    ASUS ZenWiFi AX Mini (XD4) Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_48970 - issues updating all nodes?

    Just manually updated my RT-AX86U router with the latest firmware and attempted to do the same with the AX Mini XD4 nodes (3) I have in my network. I'm able to update one of the three, but there are two that don't seem to accept the new firmware (48970) despite going through the process and...
