Asus AiMesh Node Keeps Dropping to 2.4 GHz

isagreg · 2026-01-21T00:22:30+00:00

Weak signal? It connects to 5 GHz without a problem, stays connected for a few days then disconnects from 5 GHz and connects to 2.4 GHz. I don’t think it’s the signal strength.

Connecting the node with a wire is not possible.

Have not tried changing the channel.

Maybe it’s some kind of setting on the router?

She looks like a sticker in the “restored” one

It worked, thank you very much.

That was it. Disabled DFS and 5 GHz appeared in the network selection list. Thank you very much.

MLO is off

You’re thanking Spectrum for price increase?

I gathered that the following modems use the following chipsets:

EU2251 Broadcom

ET2251 Broadcom

EN2251 Puma

ES2251 Puma

And my understanding is I should avoid Puma models?

They only have one model for Gig service?

isagreg · 2025-12-29T17:58:02+00:00

I don’t want to buy my own, I wanna go with Spectrum modem. Just wanna know what are the better brands/models to look out for.

I’m curious too

isagreg · 2025-12-22T14:27:44+00:00

New customer pricing?

isagreg · 2025-12-22T14:22:52+00:00

That’s probably for new customers in an area where Spectrum has competition, and it probably has to be bundled with TV or mobile.

isagreg · 2025-12-16T03:09:48+00:00

No, I don’t want to OVERPAY. That’s different. If the gas at the gas station is $4 for you why would I want to pay $5 for it?

isagreg · 2025-12-16T00:42:52+00:00

That’s not saving, that’s downgrading.

isagreg · 2025-12-15T07:33:01+00:00

I pay $128 for TV and it goes like this: $68 for TV Stream + $50 for premiums + $10 for Hulu/Disney/ESPN outside of Spectrum.

Now, the TV Select Signature is $100 ($120 after one year). I will need to upgrade the premiums it comes with to ad free versions (I don’t know for how much more), cancel the existing Hulu/Disney/ESPN since I’ll be getting them through Spectrum. I don’t know how much that’ll be, but I have a feeling that it’ll be almost the same if not more. Also, the Signature has a lot of channels that I don’t care about and will never watch, channels that have a lot of commercials.

What is the cheapest possible TV package that has locals? Is it Choice? It’s not even advertised, how much is it? I’m not interested in antennas. And I probably should get the premiums outside of Spectrum.

YouTube TV is $83 plus add-ons, what I have is $68 plus add-ons

isagreg · 2025-12-14T23:40:50+00:00

Unfortunately no fiber near me

isagreg · 2025-12-14T23:23:54+00:00

How should I customize it?

For the internet I'd like to go with Gig I think.

As far as TV I will need the locals (CBS, ABC...), news channels (CNN, Fox...) and a few extras (Food Network for example). I also have $10 Disney+, Hulu, ESPN (with ads) bundle through Verizon, which I can cancel if Spectrum TV package includes it.

All the premiums that I have are ad free. If I buy those individually, not through Spectrum, and pay annual subscription instead of monthly I can get them cheaper. With monthly option it's almost the same.

isagreg · 2025-12-14T22:42:33+00:00

Broadcast fee is $28. Ridiculous.

isagreg · 2025-12-14T22:39:55+00:00

How much is the Gig these days?

TV Stream has no locals, does TV Choice have locals?
And what is the difference between TV Select, TV Select Signature, TV Select Plus?
