I understand that the WX3100-T0 Mesh function usually doesn't work with other brand AP's like Fritzbox for example. Does it work with Zyxel AP's like WAX650S and/or WAX610? We're looking at using wireless Mesh or the wired roaming functions. We prefer the latter of course.

    HI @Pbee ,

    Zyxel APs like WAX650S/WAX610 utilize wireless Mesh technology to connect exclusively with other Zyxel APs. Wireless Mesh functionality is not supported between Zyxel APs and WX3100-T0. For information about the Mesh solution available for WX3100-T0, please visit this link.

    When it comes to wireless client roaming between Zyxel APs and WX3100-T0, the following conditions should be met:

    • The SSID and security method must be the same.
    • There should be a 15% to 20% overlapping coverage between the two devices.
