    Possible problem with MESH nodes using Firmware version 386.1

    Dude, I'm sorry but your reading skills are terrible. First I specified I was using them in AP mode MANY times. Second, the problem still persists after a reset which I mentioned at least 3 times or more already... Third, I am not making ANY assumptions, those are facts, the scenario I am...

    Possible problem with MESH nodes using Firmware version 386.1

    Anyone can write whatever they want, it doesn't mean it is correct. And I've been doing this for years with other routers without any issues. Now you may think this is not bug but, I've run for that past 5 months without any issues with the "state" my routers are in. Not bad for something that...

    Possible problem with MESH nodes using Firmware version 386.1

    The reality is, as of now, my WIFI is stable and working. What is reality is what you are suggesting, for many this may not be practical. I really liked Merlin's firmware but for the time being, I'll use ASUS's. Thanks for sharing anyways.

    Possible problem with MESH nodes using Firmware version 386.1

    And I get what you are saying but I am not convinced. Maybe a day comes where I can do this but right now I just don't have the time. Perhaps your approach works and if someone out there can confirm it with a setup similar to mine, then maybe I would consider the effort of redoing everything...

    Possible problem with MESH nodes using Firmware version 386.1

    And I realize you are just sharing, not blasting or against you just sharing my own experience and not sure that will solve my issues and don't really have the time to reconfigure everything just to adapt to Merlin's firmware if ASUS's one works at the moment without any issues.

    Possible problem with MESH nodes using Firmware version 386.1

    I know what you said but I just do not believe this is the correct path. When I initially configured the routers, I immediately installed Merlin's firmware before configuring the routers. The problems started to happen around patch 384.19 which at least lets me run one router (RT-AX88U) with it...

    Possible problem with MESH nodes using Firmware version 386.1

    Well that is what I just said just in case you didn't read that part, that the same firmware was installed, 386.2_6 on all routers and the MESH network fails while doing the same using ASUS's firmware works. As for a full reset that was done and reapplied a previously applied configuration in...

    Possible problem with MESH nodes using Firmware version 386.1

    Hi everyone, I thought I'd share an update. If you remember, the only way I could get my MESH stable is by having my RT-AX88U using firmware 384.19 while my RT-AX86U was using ASUS's latest firmware. Yesterday, I thought I'd give 386.2_6 a try and proceeded to install that on both routers...

    Possible problem with MESH nodes using Firmware version 386.1

    I tried that but for me it never works. The only solution right now is to go back to AIMESH 1.0 using 384.19 with ASUS's October 2020 firmware on my remote node.

    Possible problem with MESH nodes using Firmware version 386.1

    I tried the latest 386.1_2 on both my main (RT-AX88U) and remote mesh node RT-AX86U and I disconnects from the RT-AX86U. I decided to install 384.19 on my main router and ASUS's October 2020 firmware on my RT-AX86U and I have not had any disconnects. That is using AIMESH 1.0. So I will stick...

    Possible problem with MESH nodes using Firmware version 386.1

    That is what I have done, using an ethernet connection.

    Possible problem with MESH nodes using Firmware version 386.1

    More than 5 minutes passed as I needed to log to my workstation, login to the admin page, trying to see what was going on. Then I moved it downstairs to see if proximity would help. Since when did it lose connection that I have no clue.

    Possible problem with MESH nodes using Firmware version 386.1

    Just want to report that using firmware 386.1 on the "main" node (RT-AX88U) and the the "remote" node (RT-AX86U) caused issues again. This time, the "remote" node didn't get a connectivity red light but was just seen as OFFLINE. Thinking it was a range issue, I disconnected it to bring it close...

    Possible problem with MESH nodes using Firmware version 386.1

    Thank you very much I will keep that in mind if I hit another wall. Thanks for sharing!

    Possible problem with MESH nodes using Firmware version 386.1

    If you are using firmware 386.1, that one is using ASUS's AI MESH 2.0, new code base. So they most likely still are sorting bugs and it is closed source, i.e. it is out of the control of the devs behind ASUS WRT Merlin.
