I suppose you planning to use PiHole this the local DNS server?
What you’re facing is a DNS leak. You might need to google how to configure PiHole on ASUSWRT properly.
If the backhaul SSID is showing up, just make sure hide it again from the web UI. Typical AiMesh things.
Normally when I use the reboot function from the app, it will reboot both unit.
Perhaps your main unit have better airflow?
1. Yup, pihole as a dns server.... I’ve noticed that the settings only take effect after physically power cycling the router, the apply button doesn’t do anything while it’s running 2. I believe you mean the hide SSID function ?
3. Both main router and node were placed in an open area
Do you guys have a router that can be used to replace the Astro IPTV router without any loss of functionality to Astro IPTV? Also would need the router to have AiMesh/very strong wifi signal (I stay in a flat but my room 30-50ft away has very very poor signal from the default router).
Edit: budget around 300 or less.
Nope, you will lose some functionality when you switch to a 3rd party router.... example, you can only have live TV or VOD working at one time as Astro IPTV uses 2 Vlans
Personally, the compromise is worth it to me, it’s way better than the maxis router, currently using the AX92U...
Even then, need to manually key in vlan settings on the router to get it working since the built in profile is only for internet + VOIP

My unifi account was created today and i changed the netis router to Asus AX56U immediately after TM configured and confirmed the speed is up to 300Mbps
I followed the configuration guide from blacktubi Asus Unifi, except the unifi plus box won't active when connected to lan4. It worked well under AX56U lan3. But i have a weird problem which AX56U will has red light on Internet LED. It happened a few times but it will turn back to normal after a while. Does anyone encounter this issue and got solution?
Switch to unifi business profile then lan 4 would work like Normal Ethernet port
Oh, means no need vlan tagging on port 4? No wonder it can't detected on lan4 if configured unifi home profile. Then i should configure unifi business and connect the plus tv to lan4. I don't want to lose one ethernet port instead
Hi, I was trying to pair up AC68U with my AX92U( ai mesh system ),, was intending for the AC68U to cover a part of my house where Digi WiFi calling appear to be unstable
When I pair up the AC68U with my current aimesh system(2x AX92U) and place it at the dinning room but with the ASUS router app reporting my WiFi phone signal(-86 dbm), my phone still connect to the main router instead of roaming to the AC68U node

just bought AX86U I remember for ASUS router someone mentioned here we can use UniFi-Business profile so the UnifiTV LAN port can be use as normal LAN... any sifus here can confirm AX86U can use UniFi-Business profile so can free up the UnifiTV LAN for normal use? Thanks.
yup, it will free up the lan port for normal internet use
hi asus, recently i bought a new RT-AX55, and went thru the setup for my unifi home. Everything works fine, except for the hypptv. I tried selecting the preset "unifi home", "unifi business", both also doesn't seems to work. I also tried manual vlan id 600, and still doesn't seems to work, can you assist me on the mentioned matter?
Plug in lan 4 on the asus router for unifi TV
