Doesn't matter bro. Which one would you feel comfortable using? I would use the RT-AC5300, as it is Asus flagship router model, and one of the most powerful on the market.

There total of 4 floors in my premise I had set up Ac5300 as primary router (Gfloor) while the AC88u (2nd floor) as the AiMesh node but there is one problem.. I had set up 3 SSID which is 2.4ghz , 5ghz-1 and 5ghz-2... both 2.4 and 5ghz-1 can be used for the Aimesh but when I connect the 5ghz-2 the signal strength is low to 1 bar when I'm at near the node..any ode or where I went wrong...

Why do you need two 5GHz SSIDs? One 2.4 and one 5 would have suffice and more than enough for your needs. Having two 5GHz won’t make a difference.

Haha ya don't need 3 ssid but the default setting ask for 3 SSID..sorry I'm not too familiar with setting up haha how to remove another ssid?

Turn on smart connect for wireless and they all will be combined into one.
