EasyMesh with BE550(EU) V2.0 and AX73(EU) V2.0 not working
Hello!
I am trying to set up the BE550 as the main router and the AX73 as satellite.
My BE550 is already working and providing internet access to WiFi and LAN clients.
I have switched the AX73 to satellite mode, also I have factory resetted the device but I am unable to add it to the mesh because the BE550 is not detecting it as a satellite router.
I have even upgraded the fw of the BE550 to the latest beta with the mesh enhancements, but no luck either.
The AX73 has a firmware version of 1.1.2 Build 20250210 rel.53421(4555).
What am I doing wrong?
Regards,
kakukz

Hello @kakukz493 ,
Thanks for contacting our community.
So, your EasyMesh network is running, but it can't detect the 5 GHz of the Satellite node Archer AX73, right?
When Smart Connect is enabled on the main router, it merges the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz networks under a single SSID. In an EasyMesh network, the satellite device typically extends the same network configuration from the main router. The satellite may be broadcasting on 5 GHz but under the same merged SSID, making it difficult to distinguish in WiFi analyzers. Try disabling the "Smart Connect" feature from the Tether app or web interface on your main router to see if separate 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz SSIDs appear on both the main and satellite routers.
Best Regards.
