Asus GT-BE98, WAN Notificatians

[deos]

My GT-BE98 Pro network would experience that lag a really long time ago, maybe end of 2023 when I first got it.

Also note "Use same subnet as main network" is probably a good idea/enabled by default.

I have few IoTs, and they connect to my main network....

My IOT network is only 2.4ghz as all these devices only work on 2.4ghz

Set the 2,4 GHz to channel width of 20 MHz, set to a specific channel, WPA, etc for best chance of keeping them online. If some are really marginal RSSI ( look in logs and do survey), you may have to add an AP.

As @degrub kindly noted "you may have to add an AP", why don't you turn on the WiFi on Floor 4 router, at least 2.4 GHz, see if that improves any.

I'm not sure these help with IoT networks, but my IoTs are on the main. Maybe if you can try to move the trouble ones over to the main 2.4 GHz, just to see.

On floor 4 the signal from the main router is enough.

The main issue with the iot devices is in floor 3 (smart globes) triggered by a door sensor.
The door sensor activates the light switch whicj has a time delay and then changes the brightness of the globes.
I even have a mesh router in this room specifically to deal with this issue and its a hit and miss.

Maybe its the location of the router. I must try a heat map with Wifiman and see

Are these made by Globe Electric? Sometimes the IoTs have their own forums with users who've already done some troubleshooting...

Seems like you guys have no idea how wrong Wi-Fi planning is with 8 routers on full power in 500m2. Add more? Sure, make them 12.

Honestly, maybe not...

But seems like you know a lot more about @does property than in this thread...

5000 not 500
