Hi Dong, I have been reading your posts and have a technical question on AiMesh this time. I have a wired backhaul AiMesh of one master node and 2 aimesh slave nodes (wired backhaul). master Node is by Asus GT-AX6000 and aimesh nodes are Asus RT-AX3000. I use WiFi analyser from Play Store to monitor the WiFi signal strengths, Channel congestion etc. So, now I have 2 scenarios.
1. When the Master Node starts up first and then the AiMesh nodes latch on to the Master Node, in this case , when seen on WiFI Analyser, there will be ONLY 1 WiFi signal at a single control channel with a single strength bar although all the master and aimesh nodes are emitting WiFi radio.
2. When the aimesh nodes (slave node) start up first and wait for the master node to come up. after the master node is up, the aimesh nodes waiting on the master now latch on the master node. In this case, when seen on WiFi analyser, there would be THREE (3) WiFi radio signals of the SAME SSID with different control channel and strengths.
Which one is the right mode or sequence of bootup. the aimesh nodes booting first and then waiting on master thereby presenting 3 radio signals OR the master node boots up followed by the aimesh node and presenting only 1 radio signal on the WiFI analyser. I am not sure if the design of aimesh system is to present as many WiFi radio signals of the same SSID so that the WiFi recipient (e.g. mobile client) latches on to the radio with the highest strength i.e. the nearest proximity to aimesh node or is it to broadcast a single radio signal thereby obfuscating the 3 WiFI radio of individual nodes into a single one ?
Please let me know if you have conducted research on this matter.
1. Wired pfsense router as main router
2. Asus router connected in AP mode as aimesh router, wired backhaul to pfsense router
3. Asus router connected in AP mode as aimesh node, wired backhaul to pfsense router.

Hi Dong, I have a aimesh with a ac86u and a node with the ac5300. I have over 80 devices connected and now I start to have disconnection for some devices . Do you think I have reached the max connections of the router?
Interest is not about my iPhone use or needs.
I am in the infancy of still SETTING UP the mesh network and was using iPad along with aimesh stats and Airport Utility for monitoring network signal levels.
Hi Doug, You have recommended using the RT-AC86U as the main router and the AC5300 as the node. Is this still the best option to go event with Aimesh 2.0 and new firmwares.
Also, now I have an extra RT-AC86U so now a have two RT-AC86U and one AC5300.
Do you think is better to use the two RT-AC86U instead of the RT-AC86U as the main router and AC5300 as the node?
Thank you.
I recently purchase RT-AX88U(wireless router mode) and RT-AX86U(aimesh node). I have connected both of them via ethernet backhaul using CAT5E cable. ISP speed is at 300Mbps. Both updated with latest Merlin firmware 386.3.2
My question is what max speed I should expect if I were to run a wired connection (cat 6) between the client and the node with wireless backhaul. I chose to use the LAN ports for devices close to this node because my assumption was that the 5ghz wifi connection would be capped at 867mhz given the Aimesh combo I used, as opposed to gigabit Ethernet.
As a more general question, given my mixed wireless/wired backhaul set up, would I still be able to use the wifi 6 band for the wired nodes effectively? I guess I could try disabling the dedicated backhaul but my concern there is that it might interfere with the aimesh node connection.
Hi,
Very interesting article, thanks!
For a start, what can I expect from an Aimesh setup? Should I be able to continue a WhatApp (video) call or a Facetime call while roaming? Answer to this determines relevance of the ask below.
Thanks Dong, that is clear.
Asking the question is the first step in solving it. So, did some absolutely none scientific tests by moving around in the house during a WhatsApp video call, forcing the phone to switch from the main Aimesh router to the next Aimesh node. As I can see in the Asus Aimesh web UI.
I noted that one iPhone (XS max) would continue the WhatsApp video call with perhaps a single stutter. Acceptable in my view. However, another iPhone (11) would loose the call, initially single sided. And, only on 2.4. On 5, the experience would be OK.
So, now focusing on what the difference between the two could be. Both run the latest iOS versions.
Thanks again, John.
Thank you for your prompt reply, I thought it would be easy to just switch to Aimesh from the main router, since the Access points were wired but the router cannot find the nodes. Then I realized that I had to exclude the access point ip address from the router dynamic address range when I did the setup. I would like your advise on how to setup the system as a mesh. Do I include the access point IP address inside the dynamic range of the router and keep them wired or do I need to disconnect the access points bring them close to the router reset them, build the mesh wirelessly and then placed them back wired at their original location and set the back haul as wired in the main router. I also have a question on the backhaul setting choices, I am guessing but I am not sure that even if I want to use the second 5GHz band for alternate connection I still need to choose tri-band as my backhaul setup instead of the two GHz bands on the backhaul settings?
