Was looking at the ET8 as option. This one seems faster, but the ET8 has WiFi 6E support.

Any reason to go with the ET8 over this one? Or is this the better choice?

"In short, in a fully wireless setup, the ET8 proved to be complicated in my testing. Indeed, there was no scenario where it would outdo the XT8, a more straightforward solution, at least in the satellite's performance. However, if you use wired backhauls and have many 6GHz clients, the ET8 delivers better performance, as seen in the performance section below. And generally, the ET8 is more reliable since it doesn't use DFS channels at all."

Would these work as access points with Wired backhaul?

They would work great, but also be overkill, as their main strength is the extra band for the wireless mesh backhaul.

Thinking in terms of our offices. Right now, I have hardwired cat6 to each office and a router setup as an AP for each floor. I'd still like to mesh the wifi though for seamless connections traveling with mobile devices from floor to floor.

Looks like it. When I got it yesterday it seemed like a one day code.

So these are great access points and would work well for that. You can even do what you want with different brands of access points, as long as they're on the same LAN segment. But ASUS does bring some smarts in terms of managing channels and encouraging devices to handover smoothly, that they brand under AiMesh. But mostly you're paying for the wireless backhaul with these guys.

OK, thank you for the information. Right now we're actually using Asus X3000 wifi6 routers and it seems to be working OK but I haven't been able to get them to mesh when used as access points.
