I set up my network using Asus XT9 (Router and wired node) and XD5 (1 wired node and 2 wireless nodes)
ISSUE: Devices connected to the guest network via a wired node can connect, but have a significant performance issues. (This only happens on the guest network. The main network in fine)
- Performance Issues: speedtest.net (web version) will not connect, can't download iOS apps on any Apple device, basic browsing and YouTube runs but Netflix does not. It's like the connection hangs (Sorry, this is all new to me so the troubleshooting is pretty basic....any recs on troubleshooting sites/apps?)
Today I reset all devices and decided to set up the XT9 and XT5 separately:
- the XD5 mesh network works fine - both the main and guest network work regardless of what the device connects to: router, wired node, wireless node
- the XT9 network has the issue: Devices connected to the guest network via a wired node can connect, but have significant performance issues (If I convert the wired node to a wireless node everything works fine)
- at first I thought this could be a cable issue, but I'm using cat6 cables, I tried two different cables and connections, and this issue does not happen with using the XD5 system on its own
I've been engaging with Asus support for a week, but I'm not making progress. Im a newbie, but this seems really odd. Any ideas?
