- Опубліковано 13 лип 2024
- In today’s tutorial video, I will show you how to setup a Mesh network in the Access Point or Bridged mode of Xiaomi Routers. I will be using the Wi-Fi 6 routers; AX3600, AX1800, and Redmi AX5 for the network. The Wired Repeater setting in Xiaomi Routers is the native AP mode. However, in the repeater mode, the Mesh Networking is disabled. Hence, if you want a Mesh together with AP mode, you have to setup a custom AP mode. I will how you how to do it.

#APmode #Mesh #XiaomiRouter - Наука та технологія
just in time, youve made this video yesterday and solved my issues!!
THANK YOU SIR!
Good job!
I did some testing too
1) I managed to manage the wifi router from the same ip address range as my own network.
You have to do the following: first get the cable out of the WAN port. Then change the lan ip address to a ip address in your home network range. Now you can connect the WAN interface (on DHCP-mode) again. The web interface will give you a notice that there is a IP-conflict but you can ignore that now you can use the website and through the app!
2) something strange I found out. I have two Xiaomi routers (AX3600 & AX1800) configured stand-alone AP (no mesh). The AX3600 is connected with 2 cables (WAN&LAN), the AX1800 is only connected with 1 cable (only LAN), but still I can manage the AX1800 from both the web interface and app. I still didn't figure out how, maybe because the AX3600 is connected with both interfaces? don't know but it works!
Thank you for your support. You did great experiments with the routers. Thanks for letting me know.
Thank you very much.!
Thank you for your support.
Thanks for the video and the trick, was looking to do that for some time!
I actually have both an AX3600 and a AX1800, but was only using one as I did not want to use them as my main router!
It worked well!
If it can help some, have my AX3600 with Global Firmware and AX1800 in CN Firmware mesh seems working ok.
Yeah, I was able to mesh between the Global AX3600 and Chinese FW AX6 as shown in my video: ua-cam.com/video/CWQHrocbmvE/v-deo.html. But other users reported that they were not able to. Thanks for confirming that it is possible.
@@DSmartLife Not sure it matters but my AX1800 doesn't have yet the latest FW 1.0.378 (Published in November). I'm only on the one prior to that (published in June).
It works very well and at least the AXs have no access to internet while you keep the speed of their Wifi!
@@DSmartLife what if my ax3600 in chinese version? Can't it to be mesh?
I have a pair of ax3600 in Germany. 3.0.22 both. i cant find the second one as a mesh node. as a repeater, there is no problem. But the router is unavailable in mesh mode...
do you have any ideas?
Hi! Great job
Thank you! 🤗
Hi, nice guide!
Is it possible to set up all xiaomi devices as AP, without any of them acting as a main router with DHCP?
I’ve been toying with two ideas:
1. Use an AX6000 as the primary node of my home wifi mesh (cable connection to my current router) then use two AX3000 as secondary mesh nodes
2. Use one AX6000 as my primary mesh node and a second AX6000 as a secondary mesh node
Alternatively, for either of these two ideas, I could replace my current ordinary telco-supplied router with an AX6000. In this case, can I still add either a pair of AX3000 or a second AX6000 as a mesh node?
Thanks for your input for someone new to this.
Hello, I just bought 1 xiaomi AX1800 and was planning to use it as wifi extender. Is that possible? If yes, how to do it if my main router is the one provided by my internet provider (which is not a xiaomi brand)?
I wish you compared the speeds.
i wanna know how fast a wifi connection between the two routers is
Hey great video, i have similar xiaomi router, ax3600 and ax1800.. but i have a problem when i connect via LAN ax3600 and ax1800 ..one of the router doesn’t work.. and i dont know what’s wrong. Ill try to make mesh with cable.
Hello there. Can ax3600 and mi r3 make a mesh connection with each other? I couldn't. But mi r3 router was bought from china, ax3600 is from turkey. I can see the mi r3 router when I set the location to china in the miwifi application, and the ax3600 router when I set the location to turkey. I'm waiting for your help.
can you also make a video on Guest Wifi on Xiaomi AX3600 with redMi Ax5 child mesh routers? it seems guest wifi only broadcast on AX3600 but not on mesh nodes, am I doing something wrong or weve just found out a bug?
Hi, i have xiaomi ac2350 then will buy ax6 as mesh? Can this config work to supply wifi in the 2nd floor?
Hey, I just got a 3rd ax1800, I already have a couple ones working flawlessly in a cabled mesh setup. To my surprise, the 3rd one came with a different firmware 1.0.506 and I can't update to the one that support mesh. Do you have a download link to an older firmware for the ax1800? This way, I should be able to upgrade to the mesh version. Thank you!
I understand the problem. My other viewer had the same problem. Please download the AX1800 Firmware that I have given in this tutorial and update it: ua-cam.com/video/4mIyD2ADrAk/v-deo.html by following the tutorial. Thanks.
To avoid so many devices, Can xiaomi wifi router be a main router instead and connect via ppoe ? Does it support vlan tag?
Hello. thank you for your videos. Is the AX1800 good? I am planning to buy one. I`m thinking of the NetGear Nighthawk AX1800 too. Thanks.
Yes it is quite good and mesh also works well. No native VLAN support though and currently no English web interface. I don't have the nighthawk ax1800 to compare and it is a lot more expensive. Thanks for your comment.
Nice vid! can you connect 5 ax5 in mesh for a big house? or is it limited to less routers?
Xiaomi recommend 4 routers maximum in a mesh, but I'm not sure if there can be more or if it's a strict restrictions. Sorry, unable to test it as I have only 3 of them right now. Thanks.
Yes u can now. The limit has been upped to 10
I set the ipv4 as shown in your video but I can't access the ax3600 web interface anymore (using the my router IP address of course)
. please help
i used this video to put a mesh network using Redmi AX6 and AX5. now i wanted to add one. can i use Mi 4A as my 3rd mesh router? thank you
Curious, why isn't the 3600 your primary router? Isn't it better than the 1800?
Hi. I bought the Xiaomi AX6000, but I can't find the WPS button or the WPS settings on the router web interface. Can you help me?
Hey DSmartlife,
I have a router provided by my ISP, a tplink archer c6 which i use in Access point mode, and a RE300 range extender.
Tp link also has a software mesh, but unfortunately it's unavailable for the C6 in AP mode.
If i were to replace the tplink devices with xiaomi ones, would the Xiaomi ax1800 allow mesh networking in AP mode?
Yes you can set up a custom AP after setting up the Mesh with AX1800 as shown in the video. Thanks.
Hi! Currently I'm using both ax5 (main) n ax1800 in mesh networking. My new Ax6 router is otw for better mesh networking coverage. My question is, does it matter which router set as main router for optimal performance? Since Ax6 router is different from my current router which have more antenna and band, plus support of 160mhz, must it be the main router? Fyi, my modem/main router location is at different floor from where most of my time accessing the net.
Unless you are using a LAN back haul, I think it will matter. Better make the bigger router as the main router, just for better coverage and connection to your child routers. The 160MHz may not matter much unless your child routers support 160MHz. Thanks
@@DSmartLife understand but will try to set a child first. Believe unless all router with tri-band otherwise it meaningless in mesh networking. Thanks
Redmi router (firmware updated on March 31, 2021)
1. The Mesh function is newly upgraded to support hybrid networking with Xiaomi routers AX6000, AX3600, AX1800, Redmi routers AX5/AX6, and better roaming experience;
2. It supports Mesh networking in AP mode, and the maximum number of access devices in the entire Mesh network is increased to 10.
Hello there. Can ax3600 and mi r3 make a mesh connection with each other? I couldn't. But mi r3 router was bought from china, ax3600 is from turkey. I can see the mi r3 router when I set the location to china in the miwifi application, and the ax3600 router when I set the location to turkey. I'm waiting for your help.
it is support mesh if i have ax3600 chinese version and ax1800 global?
Can the AX3600 be used as a mesh point without LAN cable?
I have a big house with many dead spots. I intend to use 4 Redmi AX6 - 1 as the main router to the ISP and connect the other 3 as AccessPoints (via wired network) in various parts of the house. Can the 3 APs still function as as mesh network?
The Redmi AX6 has the strongest signal I have ever seen, even in the 5GHz band. Is it really necessary to you using 4 units? There are reports on the web of AX6 that keep the signal strong even 100 meters from the source (inside the house).
Good job, how about testing the roaming in the mesh network
Thank you for your support. I'll do the roaming test soon.
Hey, great video, I've watched it twice now. I too would like to see how the roaming performance is. Specifically, can you test the roaming with both the ax3600 and the ax5 hardwired in AP mode?
Hi, it's possible to use two xiaomi routers in backhaul Ethernet in ap mode (both) and mesh?
Connect both xiaomi routers directly to the Isp Route with cable. . Do you know if it works?
Thanks
ok so typically you have your ISP router Xiaomi Router A Xiaomi Router B.
If you don't mind Router A being set in 'Router mode' then yes no issues. The backhaul between A and B can be wired
If you want Router A to be in AP mode, do it like his video but if you have a AX6000, your WAN port will be in 1Gbps instead of 2.5Gbps sadly
in a 3-floors house already connected each other with a ethernet wire. I'd like to put 3 access points, one for each floor.
Is it possibile to connect three Mi AX1800 all togehter in ethernet backhoul and use them as wifi access points in a mesh network? or alternatively one mi ax3600 as main router and 2 ax1800 . thx
Yes you can use an Ethernet Backhaul for 3 routers in both the configuration that you have mentioned. Make sure you make the mesh config before the Ethernet connections. Thanks.
Can I still build a mesh-network if I connect AX3600 (used as Wifi-Repeater) to FritzBox (used as Modem), and add mesh node to AX3600 ? thank you
I just tried this with my mesh of 4 AX3600. Instead of the AX1800 I am using an OPNSense Firewall. This didn't work for me, so I guess I'll go with the tripple-NAT option until I can find a workaround or at least someone to sell these to and get some WiFi6 APs to replace these.
But still, @DSmartLife your videos are always helping someone. We appreciate you taking the time to pass on your knowledge.
I have the AX6000 and AX3600. Parent and node are connected by LAN. unfortunately they are just about in wifi range of each other. So it selects the connection to the parent with weak unstable wifi, instead of the strong ethernet connection.
Did you set them up as a mesh?
I have 1 main router and 3 mesh, the main router is connected to my load balancer, both load balancer and main ax3600 are offering dhcp. Do you know how can I setup using single dhcp network from load balancer router only?
setup like video is ok. load balancer is similar to main router, and then ax3600 will be AP with DHCP mode (disable DHCP).
Hi, is it possible to setup AX3600 as main router, then connect AX1800 via MESH to AX3600?
Yes It's I've done like this.
Hello, could you please share with me the apps that you are currently using to set up the XiaoMi routers.
Is this apps only applicable for Xiao Mi devices ?
Yes it is only for Xiaomi Devices. Just search for MiWiFi App on the app stores. Thanks.
Hello,
Im trying to run my ax1800 as an AP, after setting it up and disabling DHCP, then moving from WAN to LAN, I see the connection but cannot access the router if I want to configure it.
Yes, as I have mentioned in the video, you will loose access to the router interface. Please assign a custom IP in order to gain access to the router as shown 6:40. The IP domain may be different in your case. Thanks.
I guess the Guest WIFI won't be working in this setup, right? I have 2 AX3600 connected in a mesh and attached the "main" as AP to a Linksys WRT3200 (running OpenWRT).
And as it seems, the LAN ports of the "slave" mesh client can't be used either...although the DHCP provides a regular 192.168.31.x IP, I can't reach anything.
For someone who rich but choosing Xiaomi Mesh, Xiaomi limited Mesh network for maximum of four nodes (I using 1 AX 3600 and 4 AX 1800, yet 1 AX 1800 is wired due to the limit)
Rather than having to set a static IP on your pc, you could just set each of the AP mode devices IP address to the same subnet as the main router. Eg. Main router 192.168.36.1/24 then set the next device to be 192.168.36.2 and the next 192.168.36.3, you can then manage them by just entering their IP address. The main router with DHCP server enabled will still be used as the gateway as assigned by DHCP.
Yes that's convenient but the AP mode router will give an error telling that the subnet domain cannot be the same as the main router. This is because we are making a custom AP manually by disabling the DHCP and there is no native support. Therefore it was not possible to set the IP address of the AP mode routers in the way suggested by you. Anyways I will rethink other possible ways, like changing the subnet of all the routers (Main and AP) to a different one etc. and let you know if it works. Thanks for your comments.
I have just recieved the AX6, I found that if you connect tot he LAN port and then disconnect the WAN you can then set a static IP address on the LAN as I discribe above. You are right though that if the WAN is connected to the same subnet it will complain. In my case I have connected the WAN to a different VLAN on my network so it can access the internet for web access while all the wifi clients will just use it as a WIFI AP via my main router. I needed it in AP mode as I have layer 2 requirements that couldn't be met using the AX6 as a router.
@@begeeky2170 your config sounds interesting. is it also possible to do mesh in AP mode ? because i want the IP range from my main router only.
@@reajtime I haven't tested but there is no reason I can think of why it wouldn't work. I brought the AX6 as it was a cheap wifi6 access point to use with an oculus quest for virtual desktop. I needed the quest to be on the same L2 network as my PC (which is using a peplink load balancer as its gateway) so needed to make it work as an AP rather than a router. Watching the video above suggests the meshed devices sit on the same L2 network as the master so you should be able to mesh it while using it as just an AP.
@@begeeky2170 yes it is working. Dhcp off and static IP like shown in the video. Mesh then same routing like main (internet) router
I'm setting AX5 as main router downstairs connected to fo internet and AX6 as mesh child node upstairs connected via ethernet backhaul. It's ok with this setup or it should be the other way around? Reason I need AX6 upstairs as it's more connected device there. My fo modem located downstairs.
Also how to setup mesh wifi with ethernet backhaul? Is it setup mesh AX5-AX6 via wifi first then after finish setup can connect the ethernet backhaul cable thereafter (and then ethernet backhaul automatically takeover communication between node?). Please give suggestion. Thanks!
There should be no problem with AX5 as the host router. Yes you are right. First set up the mesh by placing the routers next to each other via WiFi and then later you connect the routers using the cable. And it should switch to Ethernet backhaul. Thanks.
@@DSmartLife Thanks!
Can you add another AX5 connected (by ethernet cable) from existing AX5 to expand the mesh network?
Yes you can use ethernet cable between the two AX5s to expand the Mesh network. Thanks.
@@DSmartLife I also want to connect a second ( mesh) router wired.What port should I use on the second router? LAN or WAN? Thanks
@@YuliaVaisman Please connect to the WAN port of the Child router. Thanks.
Is it possible to create an wifi mesh with AP's on the same ip range of an non mesh router? (with ip addressses delivered by de the main router)
Thank you
I am assuming that the non mesh router is the main router with DHCP? In that case, yes you can setup AP mesh with the non mesh router as your DHCP. Thanks.
@@DSmartLife hi sir, how exactly can i do this ? i want the xiaomi mesh on the mainrouters dhcp ip only. so no 192.168.31.1 of the xiaomi. mainrouter and xiaomi1 are connected via lan. xiaomi2 node is connected via lan also.
thank you sir
I have 2 AX 1800 and I try your setup to have mesh between the 2 ax 1800 and one of them as AP for wifi connections. I try to follow your instructions, but it doesn't work. My ax 1800 router is still in router mode and when I connect it to a LAN port, I loose Internet Access. I think, I miss a step to change the ax 1800 mode from router to Access Point. In the video, I see only 2 steps : stop dhcp server and change lan cable from wan port to lan port. That's all. Is it right ? Can you help ?
Yes right. First disable DHCP service in the router you want to make AP. And then plug there cable from the host router to it's LAN port. It should work with the IP from the Host router. You can also check the IP of your connected device if it is from the host and if it worked. Please let me know. Thanks.
Can I connect AX3600 and AX3000 from Xiaomi in MESH mode ?
Hello my friend, did you try meshing AX3600 and AX1800 ? Is it working good ?
Yes I have. It works good, no issues so far. Thanks.

Can I use ax3600 as my main router and ax1800 as my wireless wifi range extender? Is it the same as mesh set up? Thanks a lot!
Yes you can use it as a WiFi range extender. But extender is not the same as Mesh setup. If possible, do the Mesh instead as it's more advanced. Thanks.
@@DSmartLife Can I make a wireless mesh set up with this?
Yes you can do so. Please watch my tutorial here: ua-cam.com/video/FZWEk_PSg6s/v-deo.html. The process is the same for all Xiaomi WiFi 6 routers. Thanks.
@@DSmartLife Thank you so much!
So many pros and cons.. I just got the AX6000 (2x). I'm able to push (so far) 1.5Gbps from my laptop. So if I take out the WAN and use a LAN instead, I'll lose that unfortunately.
Can I Setup Xiaomi Router AP Mode and Mesh Network with 2 device AC2350???, pls help me
if Xiaomi next time make their routers to have an ethernet gigabyte-poe-in, then my life will be more complete :D
Wondering why Xiaomi still doesn't allow to make mesh when router in single AP mode.
Questions : 1. Can you setup a mesh system with 3 AX1800 routers?
2. Can you setup the second and third router wireless to the first router to make a mesh setup or must it be connected with a network cable? Thx
Yes you can setup a mesh with up to 4 Xiaomi routers. It can be 3 AX1800 too. No you do not need a network cable if the Wi-Fi strength to the host router is good. Thanks.
@@DSmartLife thank you dude 👌🏾💫
So i just installed 2 AX1800 in mesh mode. Got it working but now I want to change the names of the routers but when going into wifi settings I get a message " Turn off Wi-Fi switch is not supported in Mesh mode" and I cant make changes in the settings. Any idea what I should do? 1 AX wired connected to main provider router and 2end AX wireless connected to the first AX1800. thx
@@MrBokkyboy You want to change the Wi-Fi SSID? Are you not able to do that using the App? You cannot turn off the WiFi network but I think you can change the SSID. If you are not able to do so, you have to reset the main router. Thanks.

Hello Friend. I have two ax3600s. someone is the international version. the other is chinese version. Can I mesh these two? Or should both be the same version?
Both should have the same firmware. You can easily update it to the same firmware, either Chinese or global. Please check: ua-cam.com/video/CWQHrocbmvE/v-deo.html Thanks.
@@DSmartLife thanks for your help
I just installed the AX3600 router and installed the Mi Wifi app to my iPhone.
The app on my iPhone is not detecting the router! Is there another app that I can download and install in my iPhone?
That's the only app in English for iPhone. Can you try turning off your mobile data and then connect to the AX3600 router. After that try scanning in the app again. If it doesn't work then you should type 192.168.31.1 or miwifi.com on your browser to set up through web interface after connecting to the router. Please try and let me know. Thanks
Nice video Sir
what you recommend for Mesh network Speed and coverage ?
A- 2 router of (Xiaomi AX3600 )
B- 1 router ( Xiaomi AX3600) + Tenda Nova pack 3 of MW5
I can't be sure of the options you have mentioned. I don't have all those routers. Just to make it clear, only xiaomi routers can mesh with one another, xiaomi and tenda aren't compatible in a mesh. You can only configure as an extender between different branded routers, but not mesh. Thanks.
@@DSmartLife
Thanks man , very helpful
I appreciate it
are they available with a build-in english interface?
The English interface is only available for the Global Firmwares, currently only for the AX3600 router now. However, the Mobile App is in English for all firmwares, so you can use it. Thanks.
Friend, can you help me my devices cannot ping each other through wifi network of xiaomi router. how to solve this problem?
I've got the Ax3600 (Parent) & Ax1800 (Child) set up in a mesh configuration. When I'm closer to the Ax1800 though, it doesn't seem to connect to the Child, stays on the slower Ax3600 signal. Should I change the Ax3600 WiFi strength to low, it's currently on Standard?
That is weird. The Mesh uses the 802.11 k/v/r protocol for Wi-Fi Roaming and switching networks. I was thinking that this protocol is supported in most modern devices. But if your device OS doesn't support these protocols, I think the seamless roaming may not work. It seems others also have some problems e.g. t.ly/YKMP Thanks.
Hi, can you teach me how to connect the ax 3600, as a main router, with the tenda ac 1200 with the same net name and the same password, like a mesh, so I won't feel the pass between the two routers at my home?... I tried almost everything and I failed over and over. Thnx brother

Thanks for clarification
hello, can we combine an ax3600 with an ax1800?
Yes you can configure a mesh between the two Xiaomi WiFi 6 routers. Thanks.

Yes it is possible. Mi AX3600, AX1800 and Redmi AX5, AX6 are compatible with each other in a mesh. Thanks.
So, i need to turn off DHCP to set AP mode and that's all?
DHCP only controlled by main router , the another router turn off DHCP , because this is Ap mode , routing IP controlled by primary router

how to disable wps? when i look wifi analyzer siganl strength it tells me wps is active and i dont see option to disable anywhere i managed to login website and also using app dont see it
WPS feature in Xiaomi routers can only be turned on manually Via the MiWiFi App, for only 2minutes. And if any device connects to the router when the WPS is turned on manually within that 2 minutes, it will show in the App. WPS does not turn on automatically. And neither there is a physical button on the router for WPS. Hence, I think you need not worry about it. The WiFi Analyzer is showing that the feature is available, but not that it is active for connection. However, there is no way to permanently disabled the feature. Thanks.
@@DSmartLife the fact that wps is showing in wifi analyzer proves it is enabled and therefore the router is not secure and vulnerable to simple brute force attack. I should maybe request refund.
Yeah better to return it if you feel insecure. I have searched online how to turn the feature off, but I haven't found any. Sorry.
