Hello, I got the Asus AIMesh system but either I’m noob or these devices are crap.

So got 3 devices from Asus, they’re basically all routers but there’s 1 main router and 2 nodes of the AI Mesh. They’re all connected to each other using WIFI connection. My issue is, even though I can get the signal to them to be the best they can’t seem to hit the maximum speed contracted to my ISP (which was their main purpose).

The devices are: 1 RT-AX55 2 ZenWiFi AX Mini

Basically I set up to connect this way:

Main router -> node 1 -> node 2.

My main issue is that, the node 2 sometimes loses connection and instead of connecting to the node 1, it connects to the main router, meaning its signal drops quality a lot. To fix this issue I must reset the node 2 from the admin panel.

Do you fine people have any advise on how to get the best out of this devices or are they just crap?

    It looks like you might be able to solve the second problem by pinning an up link?

    I actually already did that, but the system ignores my configuration constantly. The node 2 loses connection to node 1 and reconnects to the main router. I must restart the node 2 manually for it to reconnect.

    Thank you for the remaining tips I will check if I can check it.
