[EasyMesh] AX55 not able to set as Satelite

Hi,
I want to set up my AX55 as a Satellite Router so my Archer MR600 can be the Main Router.
When I selected the Satellite Router on the Change mode pop-up window, Advanced > EsyMesh > Change mode, and confirmed the change on the following window, the process seemed to start.
However, when the bar reaches 100% and an "operation succeed" message appears. If I refresh the page, the system initiates the initial setup requesting a new Admin password.
The router returns to the factory settings, and the EasyMesh mode gets back to Router.
Hi,
Yes, that's how it works. It is the same behavior on my Archer C64 router.
I guess that selecting "Change Mode" -> "Satellite Router" -> [CHANGE] is effectively the same thing as performing a Factory Reset, either via the webpage or by pressing and holding the physical reset button.
(it's actually kind of hinted at during the "Add Satellite" process)
After doing the reset (or "mode change") just refrain from setting up a router password on the router that is to become a Satellite. Instead you go directly to the Main Router and add the Satellite router to the EasyMesh network from there. (provided the Main Router actually supports EasyMesh)
