Purchased this to build a mesh with existing Asus WiFi (AX3000). Needed to update firmware to support AiMesh first but after that this works just beautifuly as mesh point and now covers garage and my outdoor tea area very well with same SSID.

Now using two of these as access points, have used one as a router as well without issue. Only thing I'd like to see changed is that while the mobile app can do basic config stuff, the web panel used for more advanced config could do with a facelift - not had any actual problems with it though.
