Use Asus RT-AC86U as WAP
-
Hi. I am new to pfsense, and just got an 1100. I've got it all installed and working, and now want to setup WiFi. I am in a small apartment, so the Asus RT-AC86U has worked well in the past.
Is there a way to use it just as a WAP for pfsense? It has Asus's "AiMesh" agility and is currently using the Merlin firmware.
Thanks!!

If you're running an aftermarket firmware then, yes, almost certainly. It may well have an AP mode you can use.
But even if it doesn't you can almost always just connect to the LAN side ports which are bridged to the wifi interface(s).
