    Switch capabilities of AIMesh Nodes?

    It's possible you got a bad switch, it happens. The only other thing to test would be to revert a node to stock firmware and see if it solves the problem for it.

    No idea what to tell you, I've got two of them and have experienced no such issues.

    Switch capabilities of AIMesh Nodes?

    The RT-BE58U is advertised as having "Smart Home Master" and not VLAN support, but as an AiMesh node in my network which has a Pro router as the main router it does support WiFi VLAN properly, i.e. clients connecting to an RT-BE58U node using my IoT VLAN SSID are being assigned an IP from the...

    Switch capabilities of AIMesh Nodes?

    Guest Network Pro is currently functioning on my AiMesh setup and my nodes are RT-BE58Us and my main router is an RT-AX88U Pro. If they forgot to mention the RT-BE58U as compatible what other products, if any, did they forget in their list?

    If GNP/VLANs aren't an option you could revert to non-3006 firmware and install YazFi until such time as you upgrade your AiMesh nodes.

    Switch capabilities of AIMesh Nodes?

    Nah, just check Asus' excellent documentation for the answer ;) You know jokes aside, I'm assuming he disabled DHCP on the main router since he's got pfsense doing it so maybe that also turns off the GNP DHCP server(s)/disables the VLANs. Maybe enable DHCP on the main router and disable that...

    I'd agree that specific firmware revision is probably the culprit.

    Switch capabilities of AIMesh Nodes?

    I think this is pretty solid evidence that backhauls have to be on VLAN ID 1 or they fail so, unfortunately, this may not be solvable which is a bummer. Specifically, it's likely not going to be solvable with your current hardware. It MIGHT be solvable if you had a managed switch that can do...

    The image in his post shows ports 2 and 3 set to 1, but right below that he pointed out when he changes them to 52 traffic stops going through.

    I'll be curious to see if his slight deviation from the methodology in that forum post is the problem.

    You've got a few things configured differently on the managed switch than how I have it (I have the same switch and with my setup it's working perfectly) that have me wondering if that's your problem. Since you're only using ports 2 and 3 for VLAN tagging do the following: On your 802.1Q VLAN...

    Guest Network Pro using the same subnet - Replicating behavior from previous firmware

    You'll find this is very simple to do. For example, I have IoT devices on a GNP instance with VLAN ID 53 but I need to be able to directly reach some of them from the main network (like my NVR that has a web interface that I don't want to expose to the Internet). I added the following line to...

    Interesting. I guess I'm not that surprised that some exist out there with more than one LAN port, but the ones I've seen/used just had a single port that was intended to be used, for example, to plug into hotel room LAN ports to allow you to avoid using the hotel WiFi for wireless devices.

    Not odd at all, that's a travel router so the single Ethernet port is by design. I actually don't think I've ever seen a travel router with more than one Ethernet port.
