I'm trying to add a second AiMesh node to my main router (AC86U running 386.5.2) but it is failing with "Unable to add your AiMesh Node" - see image below. (this is after initially finding the node and then after clicking "Connect" the percentage spinner gets to 1% then stops with the screen...

I guess it must have, as it's all ok this morning. Out of interest, what is in the database and is this something I need to be aware of or do regular maintenance on?

I have a Midea aircon unit which is set up to connect to my merlin mesh. It works most of the time but regularly goes offline, but I've no idea why. To get it back on the network I have to do a power recycle of the device. I'm looking for clues as to why it does this and have sent an email to...
