RE300 mesh issue
Hello.
Am having difficulty with my new RE300. This product says that it is a "mesh" device, but only seems to be acting as an extender.
When setting the device up, it autofills my existing network name with an "_EXT" behind it.
So, this forces me to manually switch network names when coming into the range of the extender itself.
And these new "EXT" networks only perform at half speed of my existing network, much like an extender would perform.
I tried changing the names of the RE300 networks to the same SSID of my main network and this renders the device moot..all of the lights function, but the amplification of the signal is disabled.
So I'm not sure what I've done wrong, or if the product misrepresents itself as a "mesh" device.
Any thoughts?
