This is exactly what I did too for my main and my node. It has not only remained stable for a few weeks I am still getting strong backhaul performance (wired) and WIFI on both nodes (>800 Mbps) on a 1gig Fiber internet. I am staying here for a (long) while I think!

Like that idea GSpock too. I have the ZenWiFi XT8 but my biggest issue is the lack of Merlin support for it with OpenVPN support (at least last I looked at what Merlin hardware supported). What I am thinking now since I have the ZenWiFi XT8 is to configure the ZenWiFi XT8 as my main...

I have and love my RT-AC87U router. Been a solid performer for a number of years. I now use it as my main router/firewall and guest network and have the ZenWiFi XT8 as my mesh wireless configured in AP mode. I haven't upgraded the firmware for awhile now due to it not being supported but...

So I put my Node back to 21099 and now devices are connecting to the Node and performance through it is strong at 800mbps up and down on a 1GB up/down Fiber WAN to the internet.

Funny... my nodes will connect just fine and show GREAT for a connection quality it is just no Wireless devices will connect to the Node. On previous builds, recently 21099, I would have 8-10 devices on the Node. Now Zero. No matter what I do.

V1 hardware. Hard reset main and node. Upgraded to 22068. Drops nodes. No wireless connect to Nodes. Wired backhaul. Nothing special config. All default. Access point mode for both main router and node. Speeds faster yes. But nodes don't work. Have tried a couple of resets and...

I have the latest Merlin FW and am concerned about security as well. So downloading the latest AsusWRT and then flash right over it or do I need to do a factory reset first? I am using the 87U now as just a router and guest wi-fi as have the ZenWifi AX660 as my wifi now in AP mode.

Newbie here. Question: Is a two router config the best way to go in home network where you want some of your clients devices on VPN and others not? Plus you want to be able to create Port Forwarding and have an VPN Server configured? Something like this...
