The device should function well with a WiFi 6 or 6E router, as it supports those standards.

they are likely to operate independently when connected sequentially. you might adjust the second device to bridge mode for shared IP access. the access point functions properly since it has its own radio. i’d probably place the Wi-Fi 6 router first to obtain IP addresses, as it can manage more devices. the remaining units will transmit their signals accordingly. it depends on the coverage area and priority zones. https://www.asus.com/Networking-IoT-Serv...s/RTAC68U/ it will use Aimesh but only supports Wi-Fi 5 within its range. it should connect to Wi-Fi 6 routers that are compatible with Aimesh.

I understand the second point, but I’m still figuring out the first one. All right.

Choose the quickest device linked to your landline; otherwise, it won’t surpass the slowest link if you switch to a new one and use a Wi-Fi 5 gadget between two Wi-Fi 6 devices. The maximum speed from the external Wi-Fi 6 source will match the capabilities of the receiving device.

Absolutely, I understand. I always make sure the slower part doesn't slow down the faster one.
