    2.4ghz and 5ghz clients cant communicate with each other

    I have this problem on a RT-AC86U - as far as I know, it's a NON pro model - but how can I tell?

    Thanks heysoundude.

    Meaning of the word BACKHAUL (re: mesh routers)

    Thanks - yeah - I hear you. :) But aren't "repeaters" and "extenders" really different than a mesh? Those double the ping time because they "repeat"? Where a mesh sends the data back via a separate mode (the other wifi radio frequency or the ethernet cable)? Thanks...

    Meaning of the word BACKHAUL (re: mesh routers)

    OK - so maybe I should RTFM - or search Google, forums, etc. I've set up dozens of wired and wireless networks over the past 2-3 decades (for myself and my friends/family) - so you'd THINK I might be aware of most of what makes a home network, work. However I only recently set up my first...

    How to force XT8 mesh into particular topography config

    Old thread - but, maybe you can orient the router antennas to force a higher or lower signal strength between the routers themselves? Like set the dipoles antennas 90 degrees to each other - certain router antennas (ALL of the antennas on a given router) placed vertically, and other router...

    MOCA slow speed issue

    Steve, Thanks for that. My original connection, from modem/router/moca to the PC, went all the way across the house and back (175 feet?), and went thru at least 2 splitters, a 2-way and a 3-way...so kinda weird that even with that, the signal was too strong...but, too strong a signal was...

    MOCA slow speed issue

    Hi guys...just wanted to add my 2 cents, as I had a "slow moca" connection and finally figured out my problem, which really surprised me, so I wanted to add it to the "knowledge base". I bought a Motorola/Arris SBG6782-AC with built-in moca. I was having a bit of a wireless connection problem...
