Wi-Fi 6E is a somewhat dead end branch of evolution. There are still few clients operating in the 6 GHz band, and soon, probably in 1-2 years, it will be possible to buy Wi-Fi 7 routers. An intermediate option is four-band routers or Mesh systems with Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 6E, for example Netgear...

I have these two XT8 since April of this year. I, too, 1-2-3 or 4 days a week work from home, on vpn. There were different firmware for this router, but there was never a problem with vpn to communicate with the corporate network. Perhaps you need to configure the router settings correctly, or...

I did not know that ASUS makes routers for the corporate market. I always thought that they had only a home segment ... :)

Try disabling "Smart Connect", and for 2.4 GHz wireless mode enable "N only". And, maybe, put Modulation Scheme in "Up to MCS 7 (802.11 n)"

Well, not everything is as bad as you say. I have 2xXT8, connected by a cable. There are no problems with this firmware at all!

Wired backhaul, Ethernet 1 Gbps. 5GHz-2 AX is used for clients. In Roaming Block List - only TVs.

Question 1: why my Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Pro smartphone, in which the AX standard is not implemented, with such settings freely connects to the Wi-Fi AX network? Question 2: why my smartphone, if it is connected to 5 GHz AX, connects only to the node, but not to the main router, even if I am...

The guide says: «Your router connects to Internet through another router (here we called "the Root AP"). The Root AP assigned IP address to your router. In such case, you have to set up Port Forwarding, NAT Server, or Virtual Server on the Root AP to make Instant Guard VPN available for private...

I'm sorry, but it seems to me that these issues should be considered in a separate topic, but not in this one ...

Most likely the address 10.9.112.78 is a "gray" address, not a public one. Please contact your ISP to provide you with a "white" external public address. It's not 100%, but I think so ... I had a similar problem (external ip address started with "10.") and had to buy an external public address...

Good question! Yes, you need to plan your Wi-Fi first, and then build the walls! :) Ideally, you need a Mesh, consisting of one router and one node. Then it all depends on your budget ...
