  @Kevin_Z Thank you for your help. I was able to connect my two Archer AX55's using the EasyMesh instructions you provided. However there is a signicant drop on internet speed on the satellite router. Was this to be expected or should the satellite router internet speed be about the same as the main router? Thanks once again!

 

@rgg789 Can you please describe this in more detail? What is the speed you can get when connecting to the main Easymesh router, and what is that when connecting to the satellite?

 

How about the link speed on the client device when you are monitoring the real speed? Is it the same when connecting to the main and when connecting to the satellite?

 

How far are the main AX55 and satellite one? Try moving them closer and ensure there is a good signal.

Hey @Kevin_Z i notice something simillar too. I have two routers AX55 and one works as satellite one. They stand 30 feet + one door away to each other. But shows full signal so in theory should be full speed wi-fi between them  = 2400 mbs/ 2,4Gbit. Lets say 1800mbs bec alwyas something can interrupt and can be some losses on signal. I have 1 Gbit speed on my internet provider. But when i connect my PC wi-fi 6 to satellite one (3feet distance) speed go 600mbs only... But should be around 1 Gbit easy. But when i connect by cabale from PC to satellite one speed go 900mbs+ only. So in conclusion satellite router on Wi-Fi between PC cut connections around three/four times, and on wire 2 times. But on wire shouldn't by any cuts of speed.
PS.

I hope Ethernet Backhaul and AP mode wil come fast as possible an will be no more Wi-fi cuts of speed :P

I confirm on the second router the Internet speed drops, although I have the Internet somewhere around 700 MB

We are waiting for when it will be available HB ent.

  @Kevin_Z  I noticed that firmware suporting EasyMesh (Archer AX55(US)_V1_1.1.5 Build 20221105) was already released in US. When can we expect this firmware to be relesed in Canada?

  @Kevin_Z Hello, I just bought two of ax73 today for making mesh network and i just know it not support Easymesh yet.
Can you estimate when it will be supported?

Hello Kevin,

 

I just upgraded the firmware in my EU version of the AX55. Everything is OK and working fine. The only "bug" I encountered was that the AX55 booted up on channel 40 (5Ghz) instead of 48 which the router is configured to use. The web interface showed channel 48 as the channel. I unchecked Smart Connect, clicked Save, then re-checked Smart Connect and again clicked Save to force the router to change the wireless settings. The router then began to use channel 48 as expected.

 

One other thing... The router is working great with an RE700X extender (Easy Mesh) and an RE650X (One Mesh) extender on the same network. I'll be watching for the RE650X upgrade to Easy Mesh.

Kevin, in my previous reply I stated that one of my range extenders is an RE650X. The range extender is actually an RE605X. In another post I read the Easymesh and Onemesh protocols are not compatible. Is that still true with the AX55 upgrade?  Both the RE700X and the RE605X are working but it makes me wonder if the router is actually using both protocols or is it simply using the Onemesh protocol because of the RE605X.  I have ordered another RE700X to replace the RE605X (which I can use in another network) and am hoping that everything will be on Easymesh. Can you confirm this?

 I have a question when I mesh two routers with easymesh, do they become one large network e.g. (192.168.0.0/24), or will the child routers get NAT-ed?
