ASUS RT-AC86U AC2900 WiFi 5 Gaming
Question about ASUS RT-AC86U AC2900 WiFi 5 Gaming
Hello the professionals I don't know much about networking. I have my Sunrise router in the basement (where WIFI A and B runs very well) and 4 Lan connections go into the house on the ground floor and 1st floor. I only want the same Wifi from Sunrise on the ground floor and 1st floor now. At the moment I have a WIFI C which I have set up with an old Netgear router. Question 1: Have I understood the mesh function correctly? With this product (connected with Lan to my Sunrise router) I will have exactly the same WIFI A and B from Sunrise in my house. Question 2: Is it now possible to switch off the WLAN via the app (with a timer)? Thanks in advance
Good day
The mesh system is one thing.
Actually, it should be possible to set it up without much effort and it should work.
I have not been able to get it to work after many possible, impossible configuration attempts.
to get it to work. (for days).
The best and easiest way that works is the following.
Connect the modem to the router, the router to a powerline LAN adapter.
Depending on the use, 1st floor, 2nd floor, you can now install a Poerline Wifi_Adapter in a
in any socket on the 1st, 2nd floor and the WLAN signal is available everywhere.
About the router, it's OK so far, but the range is much smaller than that of e.g. the original ups modem router.
Origial ups modem router. Otherwise a good device. Easy to configure.
For Powerline, Devolo Magic 2-1-2, with possible additional adapters, upwards, range open.
Admittedly, not quite cheap, but works great, no fiddling, simple and reliable.
Guaranteed.
I hope I was able to help.
