Hello.
I'm looking to buy the upcoming 2 pack AX92U (AX6100) to use them in a home and garden coverage. They will use ethernet backhaul.
I tested the coverage with an apple airport router and even the 5GHz reached in the whole house (medium signal), I'm going to assume the 92U will do better. The thing is, outside in the patio the 2.4 struggled and the 5 was nowhere to be found. I wanted to use 1 92U upstairs and 1 downstairs, but considering 1 covers the whole house, then it's overkill. Unfortunately, anywhere I set the AirPort router, it didn't have good signal outside. I even tried the attic, nothing works. I can't put the 92U outside due to weather.
I was thinking of buying an outdoor AP, with ethernet backhaul thru the attic for it to cover the outside of the house.
Now here's my issue: the AP should/will have a different SSID because it can't be put in the AiMesh, but that kind of makes 1 network for everything obsolete, not to mention if coming from the outside in the house, the device might still be connected to the AP instead of the asus network.
Are there any other solutions to my problem? External antennas connected to one of the routers?
Thanks for the help.
