NOTE: When you’re using a wireless backhaul to connect your router and AiMesh

node, the WAN port on your AiMesh node can be used as a LAN port
providing up to 2.5G transmission speed.

Troubleshooting

If your AiMesh router cannot find any AiMesh node nearby or synchronization fails, please check the following
and try again.

a Move your AiMesh node closer to the AiMesh router ideally. Ensure that it is within 3 meters.

b

Your AiMesh node is powered on.

Relocation

FAQ

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q1:

Does the AiMesh router support Access Point mode?

A: Yes. You can choose to set the AiMesh router as router mode or
access point mode. Please go to web GUI (http://router.asus.com), and
go to the page Administration > Operation Mode.

Q2:

ZenWiFi XT9 LED indications

Solid blue:
Your ZenWiFi XT9 is ready for setup.
Solid white:
Your ZenWiFi XT9 is online and works well.
Solid yellow:
The signal between your ZenWiFi XT9 router and the node is weak.
Solid red:
Your ZenWiFi XT9 router has no Internet connection. / Your node is disconnected

from the router.

Could I setup wired connection between AiMesh routers (Ethernet backhaul)?

A: Yes. AiMesh system supports both wireless and wired connection between AiMesh
router and node to maximize throughput and stability. AiMesh analyzes the wireless signal
strength for each frequency band available, and then determines automatically whether a
wireless or wired connection is best to serve as the inter-router connection backbone.
