    Solved AXE16000 & AX86U

    So I found what was causing the issue. When first adding the AX86U as a node to AXE16000, one of the 5ghz wifi from AXE16000 needs to be off. if adding the node via ethernet backhaul. This does the trick and the remaining 5ghz and 2 are broadcasted correctly by the AX86U

    this mesh is driving me crazy. I bought an axe16000 to use with 1 ET12 but ended up returning the axe16000 (was to big for the furniture space) and bought 2 x ET12. Since I have this Et12 mesh, 4 days ... - I can't have a single Teams / Google meet call without having constant disconnects. -...

    2 x AX86U vs 2 x XT8

    Good point but unfortunately the wired backhaul will be locked at 1 Gbps. On the main, I'm using the 2.5 Gbps port for my internet provider and will link the node on a normal 1 Gbps port. It's requiring the 2.5 Gbps for the ISP as I have a 2.5 Gbps connection
