I attached to the first AiMesh J-2.4G connection, see Pic 1. The connection was stable for the last 18 hours. I confirmed that the Linux box was connected to my AiMesh node called TV-Room which is physically close to my Geochron Linux box.
.
Then I turned off the TV-Room node radios (Wifi...
I was expecting consistency among all clients, i.e. 1 SID showing for an AiMesh system, shouldn't matter what the box OS is.
The multiple AiMesh SID's for the Linux box may or may not result in a connection stability problem for the Linux box because I haven't tried connecting to any of the...
I have an AiMesh network with the components shown in my Signature.
When my Wifi clients (e.g. iPhone, iPad, laptop, etc.) view available networks my Mesh system shows up with just a single SID on the network connection screen of the client. No problems here, this is just as it should be.
On...
Hi @VANT,
I am using FW: 3.0.0.4.384.32799 for my (3) AC5300's (see signature) because I really want 3 bands for my AiMesh setup with my use of a wired backhaul.
Will the new FW "...in a couple of weeks" be:
Available for the AC5300's?
Bring back the 3 Wifi bands if the AiMesh users uses a...
Well LimJK you continue to have my attention :).
I second LimJK on his request. I am also waiting for the next FW release for my 3 RT-AC5300's so I may solve the problem I reported with FW 45149 here...
LimJK,
Too bad we cannot turn off the dedicated and inaccessible 5G backhaul band in 45149 when using an ethernet backhaul. I could then have pinned down the issue very quickly.
AiMesh was running so well, and through the last several FW upgrades, there were no problems upgrading. I was...
Hi LimJK,
Take a look at my post on my upgrade problem for FW 384.45149 for 3 RT-AC5300's. I had a big speed problem at the parent router which was sometimes as bad as no upload connectivity.

See signature for my RT-AC5300 configuration.

I have about 25 wired clients and 15 wireless. Before the upgrade, I was set up with a...
My mesh setup is shown in the signature. Upgraded today, 7/11/2018.
Used the Web GUI to update the mesh (parent and two nodes) from 21045. Single click did all 3 routers.
No reboot needed. Took about 5 minutes from clicking Administration>check update>then click on update.
When parent...
All my nodes are ethernet connected to the parent.
I found that if there are switches between the node and the Parent, a connection priority of "Auto" gives occasionally disconnects of the node with it resulting in "offline" as seen in the parent.
I also observed that with Auto connection...
I upgraded today. Pleasantly surprised all went as well as it did.
Same experience as @Neil62.
Update completed via Web GUI, straight upgrade, no factory reset/initialize done for the upgrade. Update notification of firmware was from the Web GUI.
AiMesh running smoothly, setup is shown in...
