This video was much more helpful than the one from ASUS
Glad it was helpful, thanks 👍
I agree
Exactly! Asus should link to this video.
This video is the most accurate videos regarding AiMeshing ASUS routers. You not only show how to create a meshed system, but, you, and only you - so far -, explain HOW TO convert a router into a node ... very important part of creating a meshed system. And, your video isn't a lot of "blah-blah-blah", "... like my video ..." Thank you!
Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked this video and was useful :-)
Thank you. I had been struggling to set up my second ASUS access point. The simplified ASUS instructions were not helpful. You video filled in all the missing pieces and now me new AP is working as an AiMesh node.
That's great news! I'm very very happy this video was useful for you! Thanks :-)
This video was very helpful setting up my aimesh node. One thing to add, if your main router is having issues finding the node, connect them with a wire.
Your presentation is Goldilocks! Not too much, not too little, just right. Love your graphics and your consistency throughout.
Thanks you so much! I really appreciate it and I'm very glad that my work was helpful :-)
Wow, this video is so much better than the official Asus video (which totally misses steps and suck). Love the little diagrams... Was able to make it work easy peazy. Thanks a bunch.
You're very welcome! I'm very glad you found it to be useful :-)
I have an 88u as my main and was running a 68u as my repeater running Merlin software, I have had issues with my repeater not transmitting on occasion and but recently my 68u lost connectivity and only the 88U was working. I tried a backup 68u I have and still no go, I ended up going back to asus firmware and now running AIMESH. What a difference, I have quite a few IP cameras running on my system and this has been the most stable my cameras have ever been since I can remember. AIMESH has simplified and made my network so much more stable, I am loving it.
Thanks so much for sharing your experience and I'm very glad you're loving the AiMesh 😀👍
Definitely the best ASUS AiMesh RUclips video available. Thanks Behfor
Great! Thanks for your comment and I'm glad you liked this video :-)
The only useful video I could find for connecting the Aimesh system. This was perfect, thank you!
Glad to hear that!
Thank you!! Your video helped solve a dilemma I had last week. The need arose to temporarily extend the wifi in a seniors recreational center that I do some IT work for and I had tried a couple of brands of wall plug extenders to no avail.
In searching for reasonably priced alternatives to the wall plug extenders, I came across your video, It just so happens I'd replaced their aging router with an AC68U a few months ago. I saw the AiMesh button when I was setting up but didn't know what it was and since there was no need to extend range at that time, I didn't give it another thought.
Once I saw your video, I decided AiMesh was probably my best option so I obtained a second AC68U and set it up as a node according to your very easy to understand instructions.
Wow! Worked like a charm! After finding the best spot to locate it using a wifi analyzer, I plugged it in, waited a few minutes for it to connect to the base router then started running some tests. The area that previously was barely able to see the base signal and was constantly dropping out now had a full five bars of solid, uninterrupted wifi signal.
Thanks again!
Thank you for taking the time to write this nice comment! I'm very glad you liked this video and found it useful! You made my day with your comment :-)
One Note. Asus is actively working to prevent using t-mobile branded routers with asus firmware. As of March 2019, several tech pages are reporting that this is virtually impossible to use the latest asus firmware on the t-mobile branded routers.
But Thank you so much for the clear and easy to follow instructions on AiMesh. I found this much easier to follow than the actual asus instructional video and web page.
Excellent technical video, clear and to the point! I knew someone had to have made a YT video explaining Mesh setup that would save me time setting it up. I watched 2 other videos with some dudes that acted like they knew what they were talking but showed zero real setup details for Mesh & completley left out that you can use WiFi and Ethernet combination for the nodes.
Thank you so much. I'm very glad you liked this video 👍😀
goddamn this dude can explain clearer than Asus themselves.
Thanks man!
Glad that you liked it, thanks 😊👍
I set it up today - such a seamless install. I have a switch upstairs so plugged it in on Ethernet, it set itself up and now I have full signal everywhere in the home, no settings or anything on the aimesh node. Great video explaining it!
Waiting on AiMesh 2.0 to come out now with 386 firmware, should provide a better insight into how everything is connected :)
MR BEHFOR JUST WANT TO SAY THAT YOU ARE THE GREATEST FOR YOUR DEDICATION EFFORT TO MAKE THIS VIDEO EASY TO UNDERSTAND BETTER THAN EVERYONE ELSE, I DID CONNECTED TWO AIMESH NODES THEY WORK JUST FINE, MAN THAT'S AWESOME BUT MOST OF ALL THANK YOU, PS. AND I TOO WANTED TO TAKE TIME TO WRITE TO YOU , THANKS AGAIN
Thank you for taking the time and writing this, I do really appreciate it and I'm very glad you enjoyed the video found it useful. 😀👍
Thank you for this. I was struggling to setup my 2 ASUS AiMesh routers and now have them working perfectly. Thanks to you!
I'm very glad you liked this video, thanks 😀👍
Great videos that actually work and are updated. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much for the support! I really really appreciate it :-)
Thank you for helping this old man connect the AiMesh system. It’s much easier to be able to follow the video as I’m connecting the system. Best regards, Richard
I appreciate the simplicity of your video, thanks for sharing.
You're very welcome! I'm very glad you liked the video, thanks :-)
Wow... You are amazing. You took something complicated and explained it so well.
You have that rare ability to explain things so well by putting yourself in the position of those who are having a hard time understanding.
Congrats my friend. Increíble video.
Thanks so much! Glad you like the video.
Cheers 👍👍
Thanks to your great videos I now have 5 RT-AC68U & 1 DSL-AC68U In AiMesh configuration around my House, system works good using the 2.4Ghz backhaul. it did take a while purchasing these as 2nd hand and the DSL-AC68U was a mistake buy, however the firmware by Asus was upgraded I believe a couple of months ago so its working ok. I have 38 device's connected including 4K Swann CCTV, Eufy doorbell, Alarm system smart plugs and Central heating sensors etc. Thank you again for your help in explaining how the AiMesh ayatem works. 😊
You're very welcome! Happy to hear this video was useful for you, cheers :-)
Very well explained. Now I am going to setup my AiMesh... Thanks.
Thanks, glad you liked it 👍
Great coverage of AI Mesh, I've been wondering for a while about a hardwired backhaul. Also I LOVE your hand drawn diagrams with overlays in post, very cool and fun.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks :-)
Thanks for the clear instructions. After hours of struggling this helped me set up my Aimesh network in 30 minutes.
Glad to hear it was helpful, thanks 👍
Thanks bud, you got me up and running after upgrading to a AX86u and using my old AC68R as my node.
Great video and really *great* animations! You made everything much simpler and you provided a great context for understanding the documentation. Thanks!
Thank you so much for your positive comment! I'm really happy you liked this video and found it useful! Thanks 🙂👍
Very nicely done. I'm thinking it's time to make the move from Netgear to Asus, just for this feature. Thank you!
Thanks, glad you liked it!
دستت درد نکنه کارت درسته. , Tahnks a lot you saved may day. Awsome work👌👌👌👌👏👏👏👍👍👍
You bet!
This is still a great video, and I just used it to get AI mesh working. Thank you for your clear explanations!
Thanks. This was so much better paced and more informative than Asus own videos
Well done! It was a breeze to set up my two ASUS routers yesterday.
Very good. Much better than the monotone guy in the actual Asus instructional video.
Can you connect a PC to one of the 4 wired LAN jacks on the back of the NODE?
Yes, you can 👍
@@Behfor - Thanks!
Great videos by the way!
Keep it up.
Thanks for watching 😀👍
This helped me a lot but there's one thing nobody mentioned was how to update the firmware on your new router when you don't have computer with Ethernet port. Didn't know how I could connect it to do upgrade.
Tried connecting the new router to modem and doing it with wifi but didn't work.
I have two AC5300s.
Been using one for a year and decided to get another for aimesh node in my home.
Figured I better stick with Tri-band routers to make things right.
Well anyway I figured it out and it works great.
Appreciate the video.
Don't need one. You can do it wireless. I did it on my Samsung phone
If wireless node won't add, use ethernet, and use the WAN port of the node for the uplink
This is one of the best videos to explain this system. Top job
Glad it was helpful! Thanks!
Really great video! It really helped me figure out how to get my AiMesh working. Thank you!
That's cool. I was thinking I would need to buy new aimesh nodes but I could just buy the same router and turn it into a node.
Superb! Thank you for the fantastic guide, I have successfully got my aimesh network up and running, thanks to your clear instructions 👍 spot on dude 👌
Glad to hear that!! That's great!! Thanks 👍😀
Great job! Very clear and enjoyable video. Thanks for breaking this down so simply!
Josh Payne Thanks for your comment! I'm very glad you liked this video :-)
I would like to get more information on mac addresses in a mesh system. Excellent channel and fantastic videos !!! Congrats
That worked a treat! The video simplified the setup. Thank you.
Glad you liked it thanks 👍
Wow thank you for such a great video on setting up the AiMesh on ASUS!!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching :-)
this is really good thank you i am gonna buy a new asus router to go with this one i was concerned i wouldn't know how to connect the 2
Thanks for watching, glad you liked it :-)
Hello loved this video only my primary Router is Asus GT-AX11000. Was wondering is there a way to have a home network accessible HD using the USB 3 port on the Node (RT-AC68U).
Yes there is, I guess you missed my AiMesh 2.0 video 😉👇
ruclips.net/video/kPVpsXb6ejU/видео.html
Fantastic video - the best on this subject by far. Having just set my AiMesh up I do have a few questions:
1. Is the only Asus GUI that is accessible the main router?
2. I have MAC filtering enabled on my router's wireless, is this also automatically applied to wireless clients trying to connect to an AiMesh node?
Really great explanation.. thanks for the video..better than Asus youtube channel..
Glad you liked it, thanks!
My connection to secondary router keeps failing. I set it up as mesh node and everything worked well. But when it stsrt configuration it fails
You're so good explaining!
So I can connect an ASUS ROG Rapture GT-AX1100 directly to my ISP provider's WAN port, anywhere in my home, setting it up via Asus Router app as main router and then connect two ASUS RT-AC86U elsewhere in the home, or must they be connected via the main router? No need setting up network key password, other then your main router in your AiMesh system?
I'm planning to connect multiple devices on these routers using internet cables. Only the main/ primary router is going to be used as WiFi.
Do you happen to know if ASUS ROG GT-AX1100 works well on none WiFi 6 devices? :)
Then I don't setup up these RT-AC86U as 'Nodes', right?
thank you, just setup aimesh at my sisters with help from this video
You're welcome 👍
Thanks. I was unable to make it working but this video helped much.
I have the RT-AX58u and RT-AC68u setup as aimesh that replaced my airport extreme. i live in a 3 storey TH. I am so glad I went with asus, it is easy to set up and configure. I got the 68u used from kijiji.
This is also VERY important to point out (network engineer knowledge): By connecting two routers together via an ethernet cable rather than having the 2nd router connect over wifi, it causes the router to use one less hop. If you are a gamer this is CRITICAL for your ping. If you have the two routers connect over wifi you will ALWAYS lose half of your response time if your laptop/desktop PC is getting the repeated signal from the 2nd router. This is common sense but networking noobs don't understand this.
that's why just connect your laptop/pc directly via rj45.
Best set-up tutorial yet. Thanks.
I'm glad you liked it 🙂 Thanks for watching 👍
Excellent info. I had to change my router setting to switch at -55 as well which worked. I notice now though that if I stream shows from my dish network to my macbook it just freezes with what seems like less signal even though its better (from -65 to -45). I am not sure if there is something more I can do? It streams ok from the primary router even at low signal, strange. Thank you again for the terrific videos.
Yeah, good video, I want my routers connected via ethernet cable, can there be a couple of switches in between? Or does the connection have toe be router to router?
I have a question. I have an AX-U58, and am looking to get a second one to set up an AImesh. Fore the node, I cannot connect via Ethernet cable, so the node will be wireless. Once connected, will the Ethernet ports on the node be active and working to use to connect a printer via Ethernet?
hi sir... my asus wifi Rt Ax53U dont have option "ai mesh" in advance setting..your secondary router use same username and pasword router primary??
Hi, if you are trying to add a new node, please watch this video:
ruclips.net/video/JmEOUOFT9Z0/видео.html
Thanks.
Can I connect the two routers with wire but a switch in between? The switch will have other devices connected to it as well. Would that still work?
The last time I tried it wasn't possible in Aimesh, not sure if they've changed it or not. Thanks.
Instead of a big ass AC68 as a aimesh node, can I use a ASUS Wireless-AC1200 dual-band repeater as an aimesh node?
Hi, you connected the secondary router with your laptop... Can I turn it into a node using Asus app or Asus gui website instead? I have no laptop with Ethernet port.
Hi, short answer is yes you can use your phone and it doesn't have to be a laptop..
please watch this video which is a more updated version:
ruclips.net/video/JmEOUOFT9Z0/видео.html
Is it possible to set up an aiMesh with different brand routers? An Asus as primary and other ones for nodes.
No, the router and the nodes have to be Asus. Thanks
Does it have to be another asus router? I have a airport extreme and a netdumma I would like to use. It won't puck then up when trying to detect it thoigh
AiMesh is the mesh system for Asus devices only. If you have a non-Asus router then you might want to use Repeater / Access Point features, something like the following video:
ruclips.net/video/ic0bgo_ueQ0/видео.html
Good video. You kept the steps clear and simple. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your comment! I'm glad you liked this video ☺
the best videos on asus routerssss!!
Thank you very much! I'm very happy you liked it :-)
I have loaded the new ASUS RT-AC1900 Firmware version 3.0.0.4.385.20253 on both of my Asus AC1900.
I have both set up with Mesh and connected with a network cable.
Works like it should…almost
I have a guest network setup with always-on, band limits and password protected.
The problem is the guest network is accessible from the main router only, not the mesh router.
The mesh router does work fine with my main 2.4 GHz SSID and 5 GHz. SSID
Tested with an android phone and the Wifi Analyzer app.
Is this a known issue, is this the norm? Any ideas?
Unfortunately that's the behavior of Asus AiMesh system, I'm not sure if Asus intentionally has designed it this way or it's a known issue, either way, that's how it is right now. I just can hope they fix this in future firmware updates. Thanks.
Just subscribed a couple days ago after watching all your Asus videos. Started watch the others as we speak. One QUESTION as I cant find it listed the comments. Im running the ASUS AC3100. I am going to add a AC86U as my node. (I picked it as Asus tech support said its range for wifi is superior than the lower models. We will see!) I plan to connect these with Cat 6A. The main purpose of the AC86U is for my wifi but can I use the LAN ports when its set up a a node??? Will the AC86U lan ports at like a switch when its in node mode or do they work at all?? Thanks
Hi and thanks for subscribing :-)
The answer to your question is yes, the LAN ports would work like a switch on the nodes and you can use them to connect your wired devices to the network/internet. Cheers :-)
Hi.
I have an NT15 which is connected to my ISP modem. This 15u is used as a router and switch which connects to 2 other 88u in my house.
Can I still setup AiMesh like this?
Thanks.
I agree with your statement about the best router; I've tried both eero and orbi mesh routers and they don't match the wireless speed of the Asus that I was "going" to replace. Question - can these 2 or 3 Asus routers being connected with a wired connection that passes through a switch before reaching the primary router? My house has network wiring to a central panel with a switch. Thanks
Will my Asus RT-Ax88U + 3pcs Asus Lyra Trio ac1750 work as an AiMesh System?
Hi, i have some question. Which option is better? To purchase specific mesh wifi or just buy another supported router with AIMesh?
Thanks for the info , looking forward to your router AiMesh performance on those two router in a real home environment test results speed.
Thank you.
Thank you for watching and I'm glad you liked the video :-)
if primary has ethernet to 2ndary node and u got a wired device connected into the 2ndary node, it will get gigabit speed right? its like using a smart gigabit link box?
If you have a wifi 6 router and use a older wifi router as a node, but its a AC router, what happens then? No wpa3? No wifi6?
in 2:24, you are setting up the secondary as aimesh node, what is the difference in setting it up, as aimesh router? thx
Hello; I have used this video to setup AIMesh between the Asus RT-AC5300 and the AC3100. the AC3100 is acting as the Node in the mesh. What I want to do is install a WD Easystore unit via usb to the ac3100. Is that supported? I cant seem to get the Easy Store to show up in the configuration page. Any ideas?
Hi, as far as I know the USB port on the nodes is not supported yet in AiMesh. Cheers.
Behfor disappointing, but I switched out the unit for WD with an Ethernet port. Plugged it into Ethernet port on Node and it is working. I now have two 8 TB units backing up my network. With the two units syncing to each other. Now to move the node out to my barn and see if that works. The idea is to have an offsite backup in case something bad happens in the main house.
Why wouldnt you want to use ethernet to bridge them ?
Isn't that the best way?
When you bridge them in ethernet mode I Assume they act as one network?
I've just set up the AiMesh between 2 AC68U routers as you have in the video, however struggling with the wired connection as my WAN on the 'node' is a different plug to the LAn and my ethernet cable wont plug into the WAN on the node... Do I need a different cable?
Is your node an RT-ac68u or DSL-ac68u? I can guess yours is the dsl version which has an rj11 dsl port and not a rj45 Ethernet port. If that's the case, you can only connect it using wireless and not wired. Please check out this link:
www.asus.com/support/FAQ/1039736/
Thanks
@@Behfor Great thanks, yes its the DSL same as my main router I've had for several years, I'm just setting both up in the lounge, but my plan is to move the 'Node' to the top of the garden to extend the wifi to a garden room... I've got the ethernets connected from LAN to LAN to setup, but I'm guessing that once I move my router out of range I'll loose the AiMesh even though they are hard wired due to not been through the WAN.. Looks as though I've bought the wrong model, I guess the RT-AC68U would be more suitable with a dedicated WAN for my setup? Thank you!
What router firmware are you using for the T-Mobile router? I've been trying to setup AiMesh with an original RT-AC68U for a long time now. I've flashed the original asus firmware to the T-Mobile router, flashed the US version of the CFE file. 1.0.2.0 with AiMesh with no luck. last time I checked the original RT-AC68U had 1.2.0.9 I believe and I don't know if that might be the issue. If anyone has any tips, please let me know!
So I don't need to connect the routers with an ethernet cable right?
It's recommended but you don't have to. Please watch the last 2 videos of my channel which is about the AiMesh 2.0
After resetting the secondary router to factory default, it seems there is no need to run through the quick internet setup and straight away to set the machine as Aimesh node. Am I correct?
I think so but it's been a while since I added an AiMesh node so unfortunately I don't exactly remember if I could add a node without going through the quick internet setup on the node, however, if you tried it and basically could find the node in question on your main router (when you searched for an AiMesh node), that means your theory is absolutely true :) Thanks.
@@Behfor My understanding is confirmed. Thanks for your works done. It made my life much easier.
Is Aimesh only something Asus does? I still dont get what AI mesh is vs onemesh. Are these generic terms in networking or just manufacture specific settings? What does the AI stand for? Artifical Intelligence Mesh? Then why is one mesh called onemesh? Im still not getting it? Though I understand the key differences- onemesh having- one router and a repeater eg tp link or PLC. Thanks Behfor!
Hi . Could You tell me the Modem configuration mode ? Is a bridge mode? Thks
Hi Behfor, great video here. Really useful. Somehow, my secondary router (AX55) is not pairing with my primary router AC86U for AiMesh. Did all the reset and even place it side by side but unable to find the secondary as node. Any help?
Thanks for the detailed video, you got a new sub! I actually recently setup 2 new AC-1900s that I was able to follow a guide to convert them to AC68U. Only issue is I cannot get my router to detect the node no matter what I try. Then I read that if I did that mod it's possible I have a Mac address conflict and I need to edit the Mac addresses in the CFE using a hex editor. Not sure if this is something you have experience with or have heard about. So for me, so far no AiMesh working but my router works fine in single router mode, and I was able to upgrade to the latest Asus firmware that was released on 5/22. My mod wasn't undone but I still cannot enable AiMesh because my node refuses to be detected. Going to keep investigating. Thanks again man!
Thank you so much for subscribing man! I do really appreciate it! I actually had the same issue and I followed a guide by "bay area tech pros" and everything worked out fine. If you just google "flashing ac1900 to rt-ac68u" you'll find their page. You might also want to go through the comments because I remember one of the steps was not working for me then I found something in the comments that fixed it. Let me know how it goes! Good luck!
Just a quick update, my issue was eventually resolved after updating to the latest ASUS firmware (from 6/1/2018). As soon as I updated both routers, the node was detected for AiMesh. I successfully setup the mesh network, and ran some basic tests and everything seems to be working great! Turns out I didn't have to modify the MAC address in the CFE because both my routers did have unique MAC addresses after flashing them to RT-AC68U (using the bay area tech pros guide). But I updated the MAC in the CFE anyway so that it matches the MAC physically written on the routers themselves. Very happy so far! Hopefully soon there is a Merlin release that supports AiMesh because to me the stock ASUS firmware definitely has weaker range (I believe Merlin overclocks the CPU and transmitters?). Anyways thanks again for the help, man!
i don't understand about connecting the 2 routers with Ethernet cable. Different between connecting and not connecting?
It's much better if you can connect them using an Ethernet cable, because wired is more reliable than wireless especially for backhaul connections (wireless is vulnerable to interference, noise, distance and ...). However, some people might prefer not to do so because it can be a pain and also be ugly to run a cable from this room to that room, in that case using the wireless connection is the only option, Hope that helps :-)
@@Behfor thanks so much
you're very welcome :-)
@@Behfor Beyond ugly and almost defeated the whole point of the ai mesh system IMHO. However, if someone is going to do this provided they own there home the best way is to have routers place high (for better wifi performance) and run the ethernet cable thru a small whole in the addict.
Great vid. Is there a way to dedicate the backhaul to the wired connection, and therefore freeing up the 2nd 5ghz band?
Hi, you can change the connection priority (in the "more config" tab) to Ethernet. Or maybe connect the secondary router as an Access Point instead of an AiMesh node. Thanks!
Can I use a lan cable on the node router and connect it to my PC I'm planning to put the node in second floor
Yes you can, thanks
@@Behfor awesome keep posting informative content mate thanks I'm subscribing hope your channel grows
Will do, appreciate it 👍👍
@@Behfor is it normal to have half the download speed when setting up the wireless node? my signal did improve at the expense of lower download speed i only get half of my current internet plan im connected to a 5G network? if i dont use a node it can reach 100mbps but it has to be near the node
Great video.
so this basically makes the 2nd asus router a wireless extender yeah?
What if the first router is set as a acess point ?
That should be ok, because if you go to ADMINISTRATION -> OPERATION MODES you can see that even as an AP it supports AiMesh (Access Point(AP) mode / AiMesh Router in AP mode)
Great video, thank you! I have a question: does AImesh work with multiple nodes hardwired to the main router? E.g., if I put the main router in basement, can I have ethernet hardwire backhauls to 2 other ASUS routers (one on the first floor, one on the second floor)?
Thanks, yes that should work fine.
Very clear and very simple explanation. Thank you.
Hi great vids Behfor
I have a Asus DSL-AC68U (VDSL internet connection) and a Asus AX11000. Is there any way to make the AX11000 as the master? I also have 2 x ASUS RP-AC55 Dual-Band AC1200 Wi-Fi Range Extender can they be added to AiMesh?
HI, I have a question i am planning on using multiple asus routers for the aimesh system. (with a wired Ethernet backbone)
My question is on how will the configuration will be. will the setup look like a daisy chain (similar to a series wiring) primary router then node to node and so on
OR
primary router then occupying all of its ports to service all the nodes..
Thanks :)
I have an ASUS router ac1900. Does a second router to make a mesh system require an ethernet cable to connect new router to first or to my modem?
As I said in this video, running a cable between the AiMesh router and AiMesh node is optional. It's better to run a cable but you don't have to. Thanks!
thanks
You're welcome
Great job man
I'm waiting the next videos
Thanks
Thank you ! I'm very excited about testing the AiMesh system too :-)
Good video . Thank you give explanation detail about the Aimesh
You're very welcome and thank s for watching 👍
Great thank you so well explained a great help for AiMeshing Asus routers extremely helpful well done.
Sorry, I know this is an old video. But wanted to see if I can use an old router for aimesh.
So what other firmware mods are required to use the AC1900 as an aimesh node? I have one already converted to an AC68U using current firmware. At initial setup it does not show aimesh node as an option to setup the router. But I do see the icon when setting it up initially as a AP.
Excellent ! Easy to follow ! Thanks
Glad to hear that, thanks 👍
