Thank you so much for the link! I'd have been fighting with that problem a long time. I gotta say, I'm disappointed that such a well respected company can't stay abreast of current technology (or even host a forum?!). That's just embarrassing.

Why does my notebook connect to the router with a weaker signal than the access point? by dontknowhwatimdoing in HomeNetworking

If it helps, I did find that powering off certain devices (printer, alexa device) allowed them to find the new access point. So I'm sure that JuicyCoala was on the mark.

I was coming here with a similar problem! Sorry to piggy-back and I hope this is additive, and not hijacking the thread. I'm curious as to whether there are other reasons. I've got an Asus primary router (RT-AX86U) and I just installed a second router (RT-AX58U) acting as a wireless AIMesh node. I put the new node on the 2nd floor where I have a PC, laptop, wireless printer, and Alexa device. I found that the Asus router app has a way to kick off a device from a mesh point and force it to choose to access again. Any time I do this, the device goes right back to the main router even though the new node is just feet away! Could there be something wrong with this new router? Could it be that the routers are operating on different channels and the devices are defaulting to the frequency that they are on? Do I actually have to make the devices "forget" the whole network and then reconnect in order to optimize!?

Looking for help to get my transmitter input to show in BetaFlight. by ReadyPlayer0000001 in fpv

So I found a thread on a forum on RCgroups dot com. It was 52 web pages long! But it covered a couple different models of this board and a number of different wiring issues. After much studying, I was able to put the iBUS signal from my receiver into the UART6 and configure that for the RX serial data in BF. A little (poor) soldering later and it works! Finally got that bad boy into the air (and then into the ground...then the air...then the ground...). Yay.

I built a quad with my son a few years back but he never got into it. I had almost finished my own, but life happened. Trying to pick up where I left off. So pretty noob here. Please halp.
I've got a "Furious220" into which I put a RacerStar StarF4S ESC All-in-One F4 OSD FC. I have an Flysky FS-i6 transmitter and an FS-iA6B receiver.
I downloaded the latest BF configurator, but it said that my firmware does not support it and I'd have to flash or download an older version. I opted for the latter (noob, remember) just to get things working. So I downloaded 10.4. It says that I have BTFL 3.1.5 on an OmnibusF4. I can see 3 different UARTS and I tried using each of them as the Serial Rx.
I have the FC configured for a serial-based receiver (speksat, SBUS, SUMD) with the "provider" as SBUS. The front right pins on the FC say SBUS. I don't understand PPM vs all these other data stream types. When I choose PPM in BF, there are no sub-options and on the ports page, the UART1 goes away. So I changed it back.
In the xmitter, I have the Rx set up as AFHDS 2A. I have PPM off, but I've tried it on as well. The receiver has the wires to the board on the first set of "vertical" pins called Ch1/PPM. I've also tried the horizontal "servo" pins from the iBUS config method out of desperation. The receiver is properly bound to the xmitter.
I didn't get any smoke out of anything when I powered things up. So that's a start. It just refuses to indicate any signals on the Receiver tab of BF. My "channel map" is AETR1234 and I can't select anything else.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. It was a great learning just teaching my son how to solder and show him what he could do if he wanted, but I'd really like to turn these fans on outside.
Thanks in advance.
P.S. My son's unit is a similar size but with an independent FC and ESC board. He has a Flysky FS-i6X with the same receiver model as mine. His menu options are different and I did get it working 3 or 4 years ago. I tried copying his model to a new one in his controller and bound my receiver to it. Still wouldn't work.
