    Ok.. thanks. Thought of logging in directly to factory reset and update, then link the nodes. sounded painful.

    What is the recommended way of updating AiMesh nodes for the Merlin firmware? Do I log into the main AiMesh router and update the node?

    Does smartconnect play well with Aimesh?

    That's what I did.. still no go after I waited an hour. I am tempted to get another unit of AX88 and just sell off the AC68u if I still can't get this going in the next couple of days.

    I am aware of the difference, just that doing factory reset didn't do it for me unless there are leftovers from the earlier configuration when the AC68u was my primary router before I replaced it with my AX88 and kept the AC68u in my storeroom for the past year. As a part of my house has awfully...

    The AC68u (aimesh node) is running latest Asus firmware for AC68u. It doesn't have JFFS? Should I reflash merlin, nuke off the JFFS then reflash Asus stock AC68u firmware to get it all cleaned up?

    That's something I haven't tried. This is simple enough. Did you press/configure anything on the AC68u after factory reset? Thanks.

    No I didn't do that.. hrmm.. maybe I should do that.. I only did a factory reset but didn't touch the JFFS. Thought a factory reset would have cleared it. Good idea. Shall try this evening.

    What do you mean by "reset with WPS" ? All I did was factory reset the AC68u (Aimesh node), then try to locate it with the AX88 (aimesh router). I tried both with and without the LAN cable from LAN of AX88 to WAN of AC68u connected. Still no go. Not sure if I am doing something stupid somewhere.

    I am connecting WAN port of the node router (AC68u) to the LAN port of the Aimesh Router (AX88u) No other ports of the AC68u are connected to anything.

    thanks mate. maybe i will get the AC68 node to run on beta3 if it actually helps. still can't be detected no matter what I tried. not having debugging lots doesn't help unfortunately

    Yes mate. I tried.. factory reset AC68u... Option 1 : Ethernet backhaul from LAN of AX88 to WAN port of AC68u Option 2 : Leave it factory reset and searched for AC68u from AX88u after the power/2.4/5ghz lights are on after rebooting Still no go. I haven't done anything much to my AX88 config...
