EasyMesh between three AX53 routers (V1.0 as main and V2.0 as sattelites in AP mode)
Hi there,
First time posting here.
I have a question/issue related to EasyMesh setup between two AX53 routers that I currently have.
I live in a two floor house and my main router, an AX53 V1.0 with latest FW 1.5.4 Build 20250926 rel. 87654 (4555) is covering successfuly my ground floor. I own this router for couple of years already and never had an issue with it. I also applied FW upgrades whenever they were available.
My 1st floor & attick were covered with some older RE200 and ethernet ports, which I moved to my garage and backyard, and replaced them couple of months ago with two other AX53 routers, with the intention to build an EasyMesh network.
When I ordered them, I was not aware that there are already two HW versions and I received them with V2.0.
I set them in AP mode, they are well connected to the main router via ethernet cable (LAN ports) through some tp link 5 port GBit switches and assigned them a static IP address on the main router (AX53 v1.0) and also upgraded them to the latest FW 1.0.4 Build 20240306 rel. 66339 (4555).
Now, the surprise: AX53 HW version 2.0 looks like it does not support EasyMesh in AP mode, only AX53 HW V1.0.
Question: are you going to release any time in the near future any new FW that will allow AX53 V2.0 to be EasyMeshed while in AP mode?
So far they are working fine, just that I have way too many SSIDs and I'm looking to a seamless meshed solution in my house.
It's a bit way too late for me to return them and ask the vendor to possibly replace them with AX53 V1.0.
Thank you.
