There is only one 2.5G port on the AX4200.
Please answer my question.
Mmmm
This quiet weird, with my Ax4200 with the country code in Europe It allows to choose in any 5GHz band the 160 MHz option ( and works)
The thing with the channel 100 is choosing this, it could be selected almost 400mw in the power option.
In my case, the radio is working in AP mode. Indid nit see any issue, only on heavy wifi load ( iper3 test ) the test some times had a few seconds without traffic
network -> interfaces: remove eth1 from wan
network -> devices: add eth1 to br-lan
restart, have 2.5gb port on lan.

Thanks reply!
Please describe in more detail > add eth1 to br-lan
network -> devices: br-lan configure -> bridge ports add eth1

agreed on weird but I started looking at the power options too. ch36 max of 23db, 100 max of 26db, 149 max of 13! The gui and settings follow iw reg get correctly.
I was briefly able to get a HT160 connection on ch40 (36 in gui) and ch100, but after a minute the client disconnects and iwinfo shows NOHT and a useless interface. I also can't get any HT160 when I have the second mesh AP running on the interface too. This tuns extra weird when I try to re-enable this on ch 100, then everything shifts to ch 149 and 80mhz in spite of the settings.
I also tried some other countries in Europe with similar behavior. At first I thought it enabled the HT160 but it would fail the same way. Notably HR doesn't have the non-outdoor requirement on iw reg get but effectively doesn't change my problems.
Can anyone use HT160 at length? Can anyone use 160 with a 2nd AP on 5ghz?
I have two AP running over the 5GHz interface.
Each of them attached to a different VLAN.
Both working on 160MHz in the same 100 channel.
So far so good, not issues at all with the wifi ( only with the iperf3 test case )
But i don't have WDS or a mesh in any way. Olny both Working as AP with no relationship between them. Only shared the same Ssids and settings.
hi everybody in rapport to ax6000 i see than eth0 is grey
is normal
yes, it's the ethernet device that manages the (virtual) lan ports.

I just want to find out. I see that there is LED lights issues with OpenWRT on the Asus Router Tuf Ax4200. Is this still a problem or fixed in the meantime.
they all seem to work here.
My wifi has been dropping with no indication on the router that it has gone down (luci shows all the clients as being active). Restarting the wifi networks with a wired connection works and everything comes back to normal. This was initially happening weekly and hard to pin down, but now I've had it every day this week without finding a cause yet.
Is anyone seeing this? I thought it might have been traffic related at first like the AX6000 packet offload issues but there's no sign of corruption.
hello i made mesh11sh on asus ax4200 but i'm not sure it works well because the speed is low
i can see of first router enable is mesh11sd status and second router too
my download in my bedroom is only of 46 mb dl and up,
i can see more adress 2.1.... and 2.2.... like this
root@ROUTEUR1MESH:~# mesh11sd status

"version":"2.0.0",

"procd_status":"running",
"portal_detect":"1",

I had similar issues after installing all the available package upgrades: after a couple of days uptime clients cannot connect to it anymore through wifi, it still has routing, internet and pppoe enabled and connected, luci is still also responsive, but SSH is not accessible. See https://forum.openwrt.org/t/openwrt-x86-23-05-io-freezes-randomly-and-then-recovers-after-plugging-a-usb-device/176453/16?u=qpon123
Any chance you've installed any package updates? Then you should read: https://openwrt.org/meta/infobox/upgrade_packages_warning
I have similar problem.
I'm using 2 AX4200 connected via 5Ghz mesh with WPA3 with 23.05.02 - one has WAN connected the other is just range extender.
Primary has 2 dnsmasq instances,2 WiFi networks and 2 VLANs for guest and main network that are being "replicated" to the secondary to the 2 VXLAN tunnels over mesh.
I had the same setup on 2 C2600 for some time, but here I randomly find that the mesh is up but there is no ping over it.
I tried to dig around and found that the mesh always stops after I do iw scan on the same radio (other SSIDs on the same radio continue to operate normally) on either side.
tcpdump on primary reports that the mesh interface receives ARP queries for the address of the primary from secondary and that primary replies to them but those packages are not observed arrive back to the secondary.
Once I disable/enable the mesh they do reconnect and work again.
A couple of random observations:
- upon boot I see 5 times MESH-SAE-AUTH-FAILURE and then MESH-SAE-AUTH-BLOCKED and after that they reconnect without touching anything (with and without mesh11sd and with wpad-mbedtls or wpad-wolfss)
- switching AC/AX and 80/160MHz doesn't help with the issue (even with 160Mhz set mesh reports connection using 80MHz)
- here (Europe) I can't get mesh to start on channel 36 only on 100, while C2600 was working fine on 36
In my case the issues is triggered by either iw scan or by unknwon cause over time. Since clients are still able to connect/work normally it might be unrealetd to your issue.
Luckily I can do iw scan to trigger the behaviour but for now I didn't figure out the cause/solution.
I'm not using mesh11sd, just 802.11s and getting decent performance. You should probably ask about this in a different thread.
That thread doesn't seem similar to my problem. The only issue I have is the wifi stops working, and it can be restarted via ssh or luci on a wired connection. It (frustratingly or not) hasn't happened since the last post about it.
I'm on a snapshot (I think for WED stability being after 23.05.02) so there's no generally safe package update routes.
Thanks and interesting that you're also having 160mhz issues. I know my mesh nodes don't support 160mhz so haven't ruled this out as a problem yet. Do you see them change the channels too, or see the phantom 6ghz frequencies when they don't work?
How many networks are you running at a time?
I have 2 on 2.4ghz, and 1 & mesh on 5ghz. If I add anything to either they remain perpetually disabled.
I'll try to break things with iw scan if I get some time and also look for the sae blocked issues. That might be from DFS blocking the wifi if it comes up on ch100 which would be expected.
