EAX80 WIFI EXTENDER INSTALLED , NOW 2 NETWORKS
Hey Folks just installed EAX80 (AX6000) range extender via the app and now I have 2 different networks at the house, same name, seems to just be connecting to old router anyway, not the e extender do...
Lets first go through how you set it up. Your description implies you're running 2 extenders.
What router are you using?
Did you set it up via wps or using the installation assistant?
Is the onessid function turned on?
Also, the mesh feature is technically 2 seperate networks with the same ssid. It relies on the devices (tablet/pc) own roaming protocol to roam between the networks.
