    Basic: How to Configure Wireless Backhaul

    Following up... First, thanks everyone for your great suggestions, I got it working as desired! I followed the suggestions from Adooni, without success - until I *also* reset the AiMesh Node. I brought it close to the main router, did the paper-clip reset for 10 seconds, and when it came up it...

    Basic: How to Configure Wireless Backhaul

    Thanks, Adooni. I had seen that article, but it appears to focus on using an Ethernet backhaul, and doesn't really address how to select the band when only wifi is available for the backhaul. Yes, I have Smart Connect disabled. Here are some screen snapshots that show some of my configuration...

    Basic: How to Configure Wireless Backhaul

    Well, this is a basic question, and I imagine the answer is simple. I have two XT8 routers running firmware version 42095. For months, they WERE using the 5-2 GHz channel for wireless backhaul. I started noticing poor performance on some client nodes, and realized the backhaul is now set to the...

    ZenWiFi XT8 vs. August WiFi Smart Lock

    Thanks everyone for replying. I followed OE's suggestion and turned off Smart Connect, and created a new SSID for the 2.4 GHz.

    Asus XT8 Major WiFi Issues

    Perhaps you said, but I missed it. What version of firmware is running on your XT8s? I ask, because firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_25790 corrected WiFi issues for me.

    Release XT8 New Firmware 3.0.0.4.386_25790

    I had numerous issues for a few days after this firmware update. These included the Internet going offline, either completely or only for some clients. But for the past week or so my network has been very stable! I am in agreement with others who have said this turns out to be a very good...

    Release XT8 New Firmware 3.0.0.4.386_25790

    Just installed the update. Initial experiences are not good. Within 15 minutes the router had marked my Internet as "offline" (this has been an ongoing problem with the prior firmware). As well, even when the router "knew" it had an Internet connection, various clients, which were...
