“Hello, how many Cudy M3000 V2 AX3000 V2.0 https://www.cudy.com/products/m3000-2-0 can be used in a Mesh environment? Is there any threshold to signal strength (RSSI). Thanks, Tahseen”

@Andre van der weide,
Sorry for the inconvenience caused to you!
Please set the SSID of M3000 separately on 2.4GHz and 5GHz. Then connect to the 5GHz WiFi if the clients support 5GHz. The 2.4GHz is not as good as the 5GHz if the signal strength is weak.
