I’m running BE92u and 2 BT10 as aimesh, not bad though
Tried both MLO and eventually wired backhaul. Some challenges at first but now it works well. Main router BE92u and 2 BT10 added as mesh node
I use Asus aimesh. Using 2 x rt-be92u. My pov and opinion. Very good system overall. Doesn't like wifi/ ip cameras on mesh and doesn't like smart home products eg bulbs or speakers. I have had to create a separate IoT network for the cameras, bulbs etc as all on 2.4G. Then turn off the 2.4ghz radio on the node forcing everything to main router so doesn't disconnect from WiFi. I have one camera which buffers a bit as quite far from main router.
I use aimesh without issue. 2 x rt-be92u. I also have an ax92u which was also a node. I removed that one as found didn't need 2 nodes. One router and one node. 10gb and 2.5gb ports. Use NAS with it. Also has dual WAN which was useful recently when ISP went off and used my iPhone 5g.
We have three Asus RT-BE92U. Works great. At any time 75 devices online, use 2.5Gbit backhaul have client wireless speeds close to that. Have 2.3Gbit internet.
Asus checks all the boxes for me: mesh network with wired backhaul, will use phone as wired wan via usb, no 1gbeports (only 2.5gbe and one 10gbe). I have three be92.
Go for a WIFI 7 Mesh system. I Love ASUS, excellent software,frequent firmware updates. Good Luck!
Got rid of my shitty nest wifi pro and bought a wifi 7 Asus aimesh network setup. Light years ahead and can reliably stream my PC at over 100mbps over wifi. So can do the portal with ease whereas the nest could not
When my Nest wifi was finally on its last life, I purchased a much more expensive Asus mesh router setup that supported wifi 7. For whatever reason the more advanced features of MLO didn't work with my TV. So basically I had to cripple my expensive setup to work with the device I use all the time. I ended up returning that and switched to the Nest Pro and have had no issues. Been about a year now. Solid connectivity and speed. I bought the 2 pack for 250, not on sale.
my asus tri-band does really well. i get hardwired speeds on 5G using the dedicated 6G backhaul but the 6G band does not penetrate well, so it's important to not put too much distance or material between the main router and the mesh units
