Hi. I run a dual WAN setup (using policy/router rules to make some devices always certain WAN). I have been using an AX88U and 2 XD4’s with AiMesh. Unfortunately the Dual WAN on the Asus less than great, very unreliable and firmware updates often break something. I was recommended a TPlink WR605 as it’s dual WAN is function is meant to be good, and this does seem to be true. It is slower (Bootup and DCHP take forever, but fine once up and running) and it’s more basic than the AX88U, but it does seem to do it’s core functions better and I prefer the simplicity in many ways.
So the AX88U is currently in AP mode (with two AI nodes). This setup is working well, but seems a little overkill in some ways, and most of the features of the AX88U are now unavailable.
What should I do? Continue as I am? Sell the Asus stuff and get something else? Or could I be making better use of what I have? Would there be any benefit in running the AX88U in router mode (so having two routers) or would that just complicate things?
Thanks.
