Sorry I’m not familiar with that extender but yes, that’s problematic in your setup, if it only propagates main. Again, if you’re looking for a cheap solution, and willing to split bands as detailed above, the scenario I posted above will work with an RT-AX58U but you’d have to live with the...

As main always gets propagated, either as combined with SC, or separate bands, you could split the main and put the IoT on 2.4, use 5 for private and then another 5 or 2.4 for guests (suggest 5), using your extender. Zero extra cost. All 3 will get propagated. The only thing you lose is 2.4 for...

Of these Only the RT-AX57 Go and RT-BE58 Go are GNP compatible Only the Pro Versions of the RT-AX86U and RT-AX88U are GNP compatible. I have both Pro versions, per my sig. The AX58U has per my own examples limitations on interfaces. It is not GNP compatible. Also in my sig. The GT-AX6000 is...

That was my remote system. I now have two RT-AX86U Pro replacing the XD6s. I kept the RT-AX58U for 2.4Ghz only, as it runs Merlin.

It’s not networks per se, but interfaces per band. See here for asus response on the numbers. https://www.snbforums.com/threads/5ghz-guest-network-not-propagating-to-aimesh-nodes.95840/post-972200 See here for a post (one of many), noting GNP Capable Routers i.e. supporting multiple...

Not to burst your bubble, but that does necessarily mean it is Guest Network Pro, I am fairly certain it is not. https://www.asus.com/networking-iot-servers/wifi-7/all-series/asus-rt-be92u/techspec/ It does talk about GNP Encryption but the fact there are only 3 GNs suggests your model...

Is this different from the one posted yesterday please? https://www.snbforums.com/threads/asus-zenwifi-bq16-firmware-version-3-0-0-6-102_39254-2026-03-16.96929/

Yesterday. https://www.snbforums.com/threads/asus-zenwifi-bq16-firmware-version-3-0-0-6-102_39254-2026-03-16.96929/#post-987276

Thank you, much appreciated.

This is an excellent reason to shift to AP mode (Claude fan here too btw). However the note needs balance in that folks needs to realize what they lose by selecting the AP only option, not just what they gain (which is in large part stability and reliability, not to be underestimated). So what...

Pleasure and I appreciate the response and the note. ≠=========================================================== If you are ever looking for an Asus router that can do that natively, it must be on what some of us are calling ASUS VLAN capable (to Ethernet Ports) router list here, see list at...

Yes sorry, just saw that in the logs. Plus YaZDHCP, YazFi, scMerlin. That’s about the extent of my log sleuthing :-).

At this stage you’re grasping at straws, so no harm in trying this: Factory reset, flash latest stock FW, factory reset, try latest Merlin FW. OR With the Merlin you have, install MerlinAU Addon and use that to update. A few others have had success with this Addon when all else failed. Nothing...

With all due respect, I believe the issue lies with his devices connecting to nodes, not nodes connecting to Main or or other nodes i.e. not BH Route or Mechanism.
