I have a problem with my setup. I'm using an AX88U as router and would like to use one XT8 wired and the other XT8 wireless with AiMesh. Now what I would like to have is that the node with wireless backhaul would use the dedicated 5GHz-2 wifi to communicate with the wired XT8 node. But that just doesn't work, it will always use 2.4Ghz. I tried all kind of combinations of latest official and beta firmwares.
Main network is using channel 36 and I can see one hidden network on channel 100 from the wired XT8. When I wire up both XT8's then I see two hidden networks on channel 100.
I do understand that the wireless node cannot connect to my AX88U since 5Ghz-2 is limited to channels 100-140 but why doesn't it connect to the other XT8 over the dedicated wireless backhaul?
