Hello,
I have two ASUS routers. One is an RT-AX68U using one internet service provider (slower speed for work, basic task) on one side of the house. The other router is an RT-AX86U using a completely different ISP (faster for games, streaming.. i have kids). I have two for failover, I work from home and i got some kids that enjoy online gaming. I'm wondering if there is a way to AiMesh the routers but still leverage multiple ISPs? right now i have two separate SSIDs and I've configured each computer to use wifi and ethernet simultaneously so it can take advantage of two ISPs but this process is a pain to manage. there isn't a location in the house where cable and phone lines are within the same location to make this a simple fix and im renting so i cannot drill into walls, etc.

Hi @imutedu ,
based on your issue, you can set up an AiMesh network with your two routers (RT-AX68U/RT-AX86U) while still utilizing multiple ISPs.
It is suggest that you update both devices to the latest firmware version.
And then you can follow the steps according to the following link.

It's strongly recommended that you put the AiMesh node between your AiMesh router and your existing dead zone.
Thank you.
