Hi,

I have two routers: TP-Link Archer A7 v5 and ASUS RT-AC68U. Both run DD-WRT. The TP-Link has an option to specify BSSID for the wireless interface, but this option is missing on the ASUS. See attached photos. I tried using same revision firmware (r49418, 07/04/2022), tried updating ASUS to the latest firmware (r55009), but this option is still missing.

Is there a way to specify BSSID on the ASUS? The problem is that there are multiple APs with the same ESSID, some with poor quality signal or non-working and ASUS keeps roaming. I want the ASUS to always use an AP with the specific BSSID.

Thanks.

I've not tried using the MAC filter for the station interface on Broadcom, but that is the only thing I can suggest outside of checking nvram parameters. Last I knew, AutoAP standalone script, etc. was not maintained for current releases. This option may be unsupported on Broadcom if you have cleared cache in browser to remove doubt.
