Had it up and running in 5 minutes on AiMesh.
Over the last few weeks I've overhauled my home network to include ASUS AiMesh with some Ethernet backhaul. I am NOT an IT guy, nor am I some kind of network expert-- I'm learning this as I go. My network has the main router on one end of the house on the first floor (new RT-AC68U) and another access point on the other end of the house on the second floor (new RT-AC66U B1). These are connected to each other with 100 feet of Cat6 Ethernet cable. I had already set the upstairs RT-AC66U B1 as an AiMesh node with Ethernet backhaul.Even with these two new units, I still had one room that had a poor connection so I bought this RP-AC55 even with the mixed reviews (also, the price suddenly dropped so I snagged it immediately, but it has since gone back up). Although I have my two old ASUS routers that I could use as traditional APs or repeaters, I figured I'd spend a few more bucks and go AiMesh all the way. My old ASUS units are not compatible with AiMesh even with firmware updates.THE SETUP PROCESS: Once this unit arrived, I immediately unboxed it and plugged it in near my main router. After it booted up I logged into my main router and hit the "Add AiMesh Node" button. It found this device and had it added/configured in about 5 minutes. I then relocated it to an outlet mid-way between the main router and the room that had poor service. Done. Setup could not have been easier.It's been running fine and I can see what's connected via the ASUS AiMesh app. The app indicated that there was a needed software update, so I told it to go ahead and update, which went flawlessly.Since you always lose speed through a repeater (which is what this unit is doing), I will likely run an Ethernet line to the isolated room and use the LAN port on this unit for Ethernet backhaul back to my main router. This will be a low-priority project since it's getting the job done in its present configuration.Bottom line, I'm very happy with this purchase.UPDATE: I have since pulled an Ethernet cable to the room where this unit is located (see pic). I'm now running it with Ethernet backhaul back to my router. So it's no longer operating as a repeater. It's now an Access Point with higher speed. The ASUS app confirmed that it made the switch from repeater to AP simply by plugging in the Ethernet patch cord. This thing is awesome.
