    Any way to force AC66R in Repeater or Bridge mode to connect to a specific base station?

    So close! I'm willing to try the beta, but the way I simplified my topology hides why this probably won't work--there's actually a node D between the others and C. (It's the AC5300 I referenced.) So either B and D both have a guest network or neither does. I might _try_ to have A connect...

    Any way to force AC66R in Repeater or Bridge mode to connect to a specific base station?

    I think I could add the MAC of the repeater (A), but I think that would just stop the aimesh routers from forcing A to switch between them--A probably would still choose B on its own based on signal strength. I'll give it a try though, because it should still reduce how often A switches to B...

    Any way to force AC66R in Repeater or Bridge mode to connect to a specific base station?

    I like this! Unfortunately, because it's an aimesh setup, I believe any guest network I create appears across all of the aimesh routers, including B, and I think will land me in the same situation. But if there's a workaround for that, I'd love to hear it. (A little catch-22: if I had a way...

    Any way to force AC66R in Repeater or Bridge mode to connect to a specific base station?

    Hi. I have an AC66R in Repeater mode acting as an ethernet bridge (I don't use the repeated wifi), but it consistently chooses a sub-optimal upstream router, and I'd like to force it to a particular one. The rest of my network is 3 routers in an aimesh setup, but the 66 does not support...
