    Can you get a fixed Wi-Fi device to work with AiMesh

    Thanks, I have given up with it and have managed to get my wife to go along with running flat cable over the doors. Both doors open outwards so you can't run it under the carpet by the carpet edging without lots of bending round tight corners. It’s the problem of no standards of compatibility...

    Can you get a fixed Wi-Fi device to work with AiMesh

    Support have come back with using "You can stop a device from being moved between AiMesh devices using the Roaming Block List feature" but all I get is it listed under the 88 still. I don't know how to get it to the right one then enable the feature or it looks as if reseting the RE365 just...

    Can you get a fixed Wi-Fi device to work with AiMesh

    I have a 88 with cable to two 68 with a RE365 cabled to TV media. The 88 is in an extension thus behind an external wall and there are two internal stud walls in addition before the 68 in the room with the RE365. This router also provides networking to the room above for my wife’s networking...

    Can you get a fixed Wi-Fi device to work with AiMesh

    Sorry for delay in replying I had a medical appointment! Yes this is my problem "So, you have an AC88U Aimesh with two wired AC68U remote nodes. One 68U node is in a room with a TPLink/Netgear repeater that you are trying to use as a wireless bridge to connected wired media clients through the...

    Can you get a fixed Wi-Fi device to work with AiMesh

    The only ones I am worried about are connected via the tplink (NETGEAR WNR3500). Its connects to the base RT-AC88U even though through the tplink I have set it up to use RT-AC68U in the room which has the strongest signal. As soon as you reboot the tplink the AiMesh diverts it to the base 88...

    Can you get a fixed Wi-Fi device to work with AiMesh

    One that isn't moved about in this case a tplinkrepeater (or it coul be a TV, printer). I have 3 devices needing internet link that I can't wire up so a WiFi link was the only way to do it. This worked untill I add extra router and used AiMesh.

    Can you get a fixed Wi-Fi device to work with AiMesh

    No which is why I put the router in as the wife wasn't happy about a cable as it has two doors to go over etc. The madding thing is I had a router under the stairs, not a brilliant signal but I could get a 5g connection to that. It been changing over to AiMesh that’s messed things up. This trys...

    Can you get a fixed Wi-Fi device to work with AiMesh

    I have an AiMesh setup with a AC88U as a base and 2 AC68U as Nodes which are cabled to the base. One AC68U is in a room with a fixed device ( a Ethernet media bridge, to link TV, and other equipment), that uses Wi-Fi. All I can get it to link to is the base. The base is behind a house wall and...

    AC68U apeares to be left with just 5G

    Thanks for help, but as its now working I don't think I am going to find past problems. If it comes back I will run through these to see if they are there as a problem. I realize intermediate problems are the very worst ones to sort and if it comes back I will get or buy another router to check...

    AC68U apeares to be left with just 5G

    Thanks for reply's. I have tried inSIDer and looked at logs (didn't really see anything) after doing a reboot. To my total surprise this after noon only 5G was found, this evening both are back. As it was two laptops not picking up other than 5G (and a sons smart phone) it looks unlikely the...

    ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.378.6975

    I have found this need to log in each time a real pain as I am dyslexic. It used to be so easy so I just do not understand why they had to do this and hope it will be changed at some time!

    Internet speed lost after from laptops adding AC68U

    Any ideas as to whats gone wrong gratefully receved. We have used a AC68U in Access Point mode (I had too many problems with a server and ports being open to the web with it). My old NETGEAR DGND3700v2 had no problems with the server and all ports were fully shielded. But its Wi-Fi was poor in...
