I’m literally going through hell with this system since the last update. Two of my nodes refuse to even show up anymore. Speed has been crappy. Wifi calling has been terrible. I get a red light almost once a day now and my iPhone always drops internet connection but stays connected to wifi...

The real issue here is why on earth would you expected this system to work at 10gbps??? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wait, they upgraded you to gig fibre for the price of 600? My 300 plan was about to go up from $95 to $110 and that’s why I upgraded to 600 when they had a deal on... $50 credit and $65 for 12 months then it goes up... I had to cancel my service completely and re-subscribe though which was a...

That’s right. In the web UI it says the 5ghz-2 is currently used as a dedicated backhaul and to unhide the SSID to enable it for clients even though I have unhidden the band and set each node to Ethernet priority. It simply just ignores the fact that it’s being used as a normal band with its own...

I see it is now available in my neighborhood in TBay. But it’s $115 so I won’t be upgrading. I just upgraded recently from 300 to 600. Not for the speed, since I was more than happy with 300 but I got a pretty good deal on 600 for $65 a month so I actually saved money upgrading. And as a bonus...

I’m absolutely positive my XT8 showed a 160mhz checkbox option when I FIRST looked at the settings screen. That was the ONLY time I ever saw the setting, so as soon as the router connected to a time server it must have locked in to my region, because I never saw the option again. The exact same...

And make sure multicast rate is set to OFDM 54 and your modulation scheme is set to MCS 11 (NitroQAM/1024QAM) and Smart Connect Disabled. Just a shot in the dark Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What I’m saying is constructive because wouldn’t you know it, a google search for Zen wifi leads straight to this thread and I think it’s unfair to potential customers to read all these complaints and get the wrong idea when the system WORKS JUST FINE. Seriously. Just enjoy your wifi and stop...

Maybe check the drivers in the devices you’re using are up to date... has to be something wrong on your end. I haven’t had to think about wifi at all since getting this system. Couldn’t be happier really. Naturally most people don’t go on forums to express their delight in a system so of course...

I prefer having separate SSIDs instead of letting smart connect decide for me... On the 2.4ghz SSID I connect all my smart home devices like light bulbs, smart outlets and switches, Printers, echo dots, thermostats etc... On the 5ghz-1 SSID I connect all my stationary high bandwidth devices...

The firmware is not a mess lol. It works just fine. Never had a problem and I have probably one of the most challenging environments for this system. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That’s so weird. My network is probably one of the most challenging cases for this type of system... 39 devices on the network, two CT8s, two XT8s, an RT-AX92U... haven’t had to think of the wifi even once. It’s dare I say, perfect. Roaming between rooms happens within 30 seconds of entering the...

The roaming assist set aggressively works for me. Since I have a basestation in every room and the backyard, I always get a top quality connection. And it doesn’t actually disconnect you at the set value; it seems to use some logic when making roaming decisions. Seems to work very well for me. I...

Looking at a site scan of my area I see everyone’s wifi around my house and there’s no one on any DFS channels And no one using 160mhz channels at all. Sucks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

They will work fine in aimesh mode with the AX11000 as main router. Just go into the app and select the aimesh icon and it will search for a connected node. Since yours will be hard wired, it will detect them immediately and add them to the system. But be aware smart connect seems to slow...
