@Yousef17 Yes but at the moment just like the other series it seems like u can't turn both on and default is off for both. I tried to turn it on and it just keeps turning itself off like my be550 in mesh.... And I noticed if I turn mlo on in the main router the mesh unit u can't use or c the mlo ssid....

Hi,thanks for posting question on our community.
Do you mean your wireless setting “OFDMA+MU-MIMO” which cannot be saved, and it will revert back to the “OFDMA only” after trying to apply changes there?
Can you share hardware and firmware version of your Archer GE800?
And you mentioned main router, what is your network topology?

@Marvin_S I use the ge800 as main router and connect 2 be550 using ethernet backhaul to it setup as easymesh. However when I moved away from the ge800 to another floor and close to the be550 it does not show the mlo network only the 2.4ghz+5ghz said and the separate 6ghz ssid. The mlo ssid is only available on the main unit.
And yes the ofdma+mu-mimo once saved will revert back.

Hi, thanks for your update!
Now it does not support MLO in Easymesh network, MLO can not sync to satellite router. We have recorded this as a feature request.
As for the OFDMA+MU-MIMO settings, we will report the issue to support engineers for further analysis.

@KongCL82 Actually I am planning to buy it , first I was going to buy the BE800 , but when I saw the GE800 , which is smiliar hardware but tuned for gaming, i changed my choice , but the missing of OFDMA + MO-MIMU from the data sheet was wierd , so wanted to check .
Am I gonna get any benifit from buying a gaming router
Or I can get the BE800 and will not miss a thing?

@Yousef17 well it has port forwarding for games directly build in so u can click on it and add similar to the rog gaming router and also wtfast if u have an account for it. Note u have to pay for wtfast it's not free.
I bought instead of the be800 cause it has a fan in it mostly as I live in a tropical country and rather avoid heat issues. As for other features they r bout the same I think? The product page is rather vague not mentioning how much ram and the actual CPU it uses. I heard it runs at 2.2ghz with 2gb but no solid info.

There will be new firmware to fix the OFDMA + MO-MIMU issue in the near future, do you mind wait for some time?
After some time, if there is still no firmware update reminder on Tether app or web interface, please feel free let me know.
