backhaul

Hi everyone, After long reading and tests regarding the famous "XT8 wireless backhaul constant drops" topics we find all over the place on the web (since, let say, few months before the first 388 branch release), I understand that the problem only concerns gear used outside of the US, in...

Hello, I've had a pair of XT8s for the last few months, configured with a wireless (5GHz-2) backhaul. Every few hours/days, the backhaul drops to 2.4GHz, interrupting any clients connected to the secondary node and severely reducing the throughput. I've reached a point where I think I've tried...

I just bought the AX86U Pro and paired it up with my existing AX86S (node). Previously AX86S and AX82U(node) no issues Router is showing that AX86S is not able to connect to the uplink router (AX86U Pro) via the Ethernet uplink On the Mobile appI do not see the same error and the node seems to...

The nodes are hardwired ethernet backhaul. The ethernet devices connected to the nodes are still online. It just shows the nodes as offline in the web gui. Cant say exactly when or how often they go down. I usually check every week in the web gui if they're still online. This has been an issue...

Is there any insight as to why the Ethernet backhaul for many mesh wifi systems cannot pass through a managed switch? I have a ZenWifi XT8, and it, along with many others, have Ethernet backhaul as an option but they must go through an unmanaged switch. I’ve read some posts referring to it...

Hello all from a forum newbie I have four XT8s in a home mesh network and am looking at wiring the backhaul of some or all of them using TP-Link TL-PA8010P/30P (1-port and 3-port) powerline adapters. I know the general feeling is that this is risky, but if I set up the units to use ethernet...

Hi folks, This is my first post on this great forum. Off course, I tried the search function before posting my question. ;) I bought few months ago a Asus XT8 combo (2 stations) in order to replace my old 2.4GHz AP. I'm really happy about them. On the WiFi 6 laptop of one of my child, the...

I've just picked up a pair of XT8s and have updated them to the latest firmware (3.0.0.4.386_25790). I was surprised to find that my devices were using the 2.4GHz band as the backhaul - with a 1/3 bar connection. I rebooted and they were once again connected with a 3/3 bar connection on the...

I have the 2-pk XT8 Mesh system. The 2 routers are connected through the 5GHz-2 band as dedicated wireless backhaul. The channel used is DFS channel. Now, if a DFS/Radar event happens and the channel can't be used, what is the behavior of the system, specifically the AiMesh satellite node? I am...

If anyone has successfully connected a Netgear X6S EX8000 triband WiFi Extender to an Asus GT-AX11000 using the router's 5MHz high band (5MHz-2) as a dedicated backhaul, PLEASE tell me how!! My network has 3 stations - main router is my new triband GT-AX11000. I have an Asus RT-AC68U (dual...

Hi! Is it possible to set up Ethernet backhaul between two secondary nodes only? (Asus Lyra AC2200) I have a system with 3 nodes (primary + 2 secondary) using Wifi backhaul. Now i want to extend the coverage to an adjacent building using a fourth node but cannot easily make a wired connection...

With the latest firmware update to the AC5300, the backhaul method is through the 5.2GHz channel and smart connect is now on dual band. I have an RT-AC5300 as my router for AIMesh and an AC88U as the node. The node is connected through ethernet and so I was wondering if I can move the 5300 back...

Hi, I now realize that the AiMesh problems are because of the weak signal strength between the AiMesh host and the node. I have one host and a node. Even though they are wired, and the admin panel reports as the connection is wired, the node is being dropped and re-added depending on the...

Hi everyone, I would like you to share your experiences with the aimesh function. I would like to connect two routers, gt-ac5300 as the main router and rt-ac86u as a node, using the wifi as a backhaul channel, due to the distance between its equipment and the impossibility of laying ethernet...

New user, been reading tons of threads and posts in order to troubleshoot my own issues. Wanted to give something back by detailing my own Aimesh experience. Sorry if this is the wrong forum - admin, feel free to move my post. So; House: Approx 1.720 square feet (160 kvm) - with a tricky...

Hey, I'm not the most finely tuned with networking so please bear with me; I've recently moved into a new home with inbuilt ethernet wiring in most rooms, and one that is larger than our old home. It's also quite thickly insulated with many walls in the way of the wireless signals. I am having...
