AXE6600 ET8 6Ghz issue

Hello All, I am facing a weird issue. I have 4 Asus ET8 setup as a route and yhe rest nodes. Back haul via ethernet connected to a gig switch. It use to work perfectly where all the bands were showing. 2Ghz, 5Ghz and 6Ghz and I had my phone connected to the 6Ghz and showing 6E and if I would move around the house it would transfer the phone to different nodes. Recently I started noticing that even though the wifi 6Ghz is enabled only the ET8 that assets as the main router works with 6Ghz the nodes don't work for 6Ghz it will not display it but setting shows that it's enabled and on.  When I go close to the main router ET8 it connects to 6Ghz instantly. Not sure what is happening and my suspension is something was messed up.after a firmware update came thru. Any assistance would be appreciated. I did a factory reset and still the same.

Same with me too. And also when I connect to the nodes of 5ghz, the speed is very slow (Around 100Mbps). It's abnormal.

Ongoing! Even with new firmware from 11/08. 6Ghz is broke on the node and only broadcasts from the main router. Disappointing.

I can confirm.  I have 2 ET12's and 2 ET8's, respectively updated to 24610 and 25124.  I get 6GHz connections on the main router (ET12) and ET12 mesh node.  Both the ET8's only allow 5GHz connections.  Very disappointing.

It's ridiculous. Asus support keeps me in a loop of trying to bind the 6ghz device to the node and boom the device drops. It's plain insanity. They gave me some "beta" firmware. It appears to be for another model router.  I still tried it but nope. Didn't work.

I'm having the same issue with axe11000 as main router and an et8 as node via 2.5GHz Ethernet backhaul. Only the axe11000 broadcasts 6GHz. I have this same exact setup at another house with identical problem.
