@ShadowJonathan wouldn't that defeat the point of, y'know, a repeater

@noiob it automatically includes it as a "mesh" repeater

99% of the time, that is what you want

im currently exercising that 1%, and instead of the docs telling thats not possible, it just tells me it is, while then the interface not showing things correctly

ffs

@noiob its actually been running extremely smooth for us, until the 600 fritz repeater starts screaming all over the channels making it unreliable

@ShadowJonathan my parents have a mesh of basically identical 5 GHz Fritzboxen and for some reason they keep dropping the connection between them and you have to manually turn the wifi off and on again
