XT9 Firmware Update broke my setup.

I have two XT9 in a simple Access Point mode, after the latest update (on the 13th) my network is a mess.

1. The main AP needed a reboot and eventually came back to life.

2. The second AP was stuck on the old firmware and couldn't connect.

3. Updating it to the new firmware it no longer connects to the primary.

4. Reset multiple times, nothing.

5. Run a cable and it works.

6. Unplug the cable, nothing again, stuck on blinking blue lights.

I can't have the cable plugged in permanently, these devices are several meters away from each other and I can't run cable, hence why I chose mesh.

Can I rollback this busted a$$ firmware so I can get my network operational again!

Saw this and decided to manually rollback by firmware to the previous version (2024/11/05) on all nodes, back up and running.

I have had this too, alot of IoT stuff disconnected and can rejoin.Very annoying because I was fault finding on these rather than on the router.

I'm having the same issue, but I can't even connect my nodes with a cable.  I'm also having "weird" WiFi issues with certain IoT devices not connecting.  This is frustrating.  I'm going to try to roll back my firmware on all the Asus devices and see if that works.

My primary node came back to life (cycling the power) after it installed the new firmware.

As long as you can connect to the nodes (even individually) you should be able to rollback your firmware. 

If you do manage to get into your primary node, back up your config ASAP.

Try resetting the node to factory defaults, then connecting to its fallback WiFi network, downgrade the firmware, disable automatic updates, then start setting up your network again.
