I recently picked up four Wifi 6e Asus ZenWifi ET9s for cheap. I'm currently running a Wifi 6 GT-AX6000 as my primary router with a couple RT-AX3000 nodes. I had planned on keeping the GT-AX6000as primary and using the ET9s as nodes. It works but there doesn't seem to be a way to configure the 6ghz band on the ET9s since the GT-AX6000 doesn't support the 6ghz band.
Do I have to make an ET9 as the primary? I didn't really want to do that as the GT-AX6000 has two 2.5gb lan ports while the ET9 only has the wan 2.5gb port so I can't back haul 2.5gb to the rest of my network. I'd also have to carry over a bunch of DHCP reservations. I'm guessing I can back that up and still restore it on the ET9 maybe? Does Merlin firmware offer any additional config options?
