    Run Merlin or Factory on AiMesh nodes?

    Yes, I am seeing that as well, but as long as it is just cosmetic, I am good with it. I am talking about performance/stability only. I have determined it is using a hardwired connection even though it says it is not, but if I am going to get better performance/stability from running stock...

    Run Merlin or Factory on AiMesh nodes?

    So if I am running AX86U's, should I just keep Merlin on both or do a 1:1 Merlin/stock? If I am running AX's, will I see any difference? Thanks!

    Run Merlin or Factory on AiMesh nodes?

    Hi, I am sorry if this has been asked before but I have seen a few different posts about how it is best practice to run stock/factory Asus firmware on the AiMesh nodes vs Merlin. Can someone explain why that is? Is there any downfall in running Merlin on both? I have a 3 node setup, two AX86U's...

    Save names prior to hard reset?

    Is there a way to backup (and restore) just the names assigned to the different MAC addresses on my network prior to a hard reset in the Merlin firmware? Someone asked this prior but I think they were on the stock Asus firmware so I am wondering if Merlin opens up more options. I have like 60+...

    Do I need to hard reset for every release?

For example, there is now 386.1.2...if I go from 386.1 to 386.1.2, do I need a hard reset or can I just update? I ask because I took the time to rename all my devices and add custom icons to them. I am...

    Low TX Rate on RT-AX86U AiMesh

    Hi everyone, I have two RT-AX86U. One acting as the main and one set up in AiMesh mode. They are hard wired together. I am seeing on my new MacBook Pro very low TX rates (288 Rate) when I am sitting directly in front of my AiMesh router. When I walk into the room where I have my main router...

    How to force device to use specific access point and/or AiMesh?

    Thanks everyone for your help! I did actually rename my garage network to a different name on the access point so I can "force" devices on there. That worked great for the car but I was hoping to avoid that with the cameras since I need to physically hit a button the cameras to reset the...

    How to force device to use specific access point and/or AiMesh?

    Hi everyone, my first post here on the forums. I think similar questions have been asked but I was unable to find the answer to this. Just a quick overview of my setup, I have 2 RT-AX86U's, one acting as main, one set up in AiMesh mode, hardwired. I also have an older RT-AC66U in the garage...
