    GT-BE98 WIFI 7

    Additionally, with more powerful specs of a Quad-core 2.6GHz CPU, 256MB Flash, 2GB DDR4 RAM for both new routers, hopefully port speeds won't be throttled like in the AXE16000.

    GT-BE98 WIFI 7

    Agreed. Like on the AXE16000 where I was only able to get about 2.6Gbps wired upload/download speeds with AiProtection turned on vs 8.9-9.1Gbps on the RT-AX89X with the same features enabled. Clients-wise, MediaTek also made an announcement relating to this at CES and got PC makers such as...

    2023 Smartphones To Get Wifi 7 Support. TP-Link Announces Wifi 7 Routers

    Good points from both. I appreciate the irony that they've launched the world's so-called first Wifi 7 device and router in a market that hasn't even opened up the 6Ghz band. TP-Link did the same, with 2-3 Wifi 6E routers out in PRC (later rebranded as Wifi 6 with an additional 5Ghz band), a...

    Merry Christmas and hope everyone's having a wonderful time with their families and loved ones~ Missed this piece of news out earlier in the month due to the holidays. Consumer electronics maker Xiaomi launched its latest flagship smartphone with Qualcomm's FastConnect 7800 Wifi 7 chipset...

    [Bug] Aimesh backhaul "no uplink" UI bug

    I did encounter the bug on both my GT-AXE1000 AiMesh nodes with the latest stock 388 firmware and fixed it by reverting to the previous 388 version.

    [Bug] Aimesh backhaul "no uplink" UI bug

    Encountered the same issue when I upgraded my main RT-AX89X router and two GT-AXE11000 AiMesh nodes to the latest stock firmware a month ago and resolved it similar to the way you described. So the latest stock 386 firmware on the main router and downgraded both AiMesh nodes to the previous...

    Looking for a new routers to replace my Cisco RV320. The last security update came out in 2021.

    Ubiquiti (UDM Pro) provides support close to what Cisco does. But they've got their own share of unresolved bugs from what I've seen. That's how far prosumer devices get you I guess. Draytek is a bit of an unknown quantity. Seems to have decent hardware but iffy on the OS side. But I've seen...

    Looking for a new routers to replace my Cisco RV320. The last security update came out in 2021.

    Posted something about Draytek wired routers in this thread last week. There's also mention of the UDM Pro and TPLink wired routers as well. https://www.snbforums.com/threads/asus-rt-ax89x-firmware-version-3-0-0-4-386-47468-2022-10-18.81378/page-3#post-803843 You could also head over to the...

    Release ASUS RT-AX89X Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386.47468 (2022/10/18)

    2023 Smartphones To Get Wifi 7 Support. TP-Link Announces Wifi 7 Routers

    As far as I know, most PC makers have already incorporated WiFi 6E into their 2022 product lines. Samsung, MSI, Asus, Dell's Alienware, HP, Lenovo. And with Apple, which is notoriously slow in upgrading its WiFi modules, now supporting the 6Ghz band in its latest Ipad Pro, these developments...

    Release ASUS RT-AX89X Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386.47468 (2022/10/18)

    I've been looking for a wired enterprise router that can handle 10G broadband without severely throttling my ethernet speeds and the Draytek Vigor 3910 came to my attention. It costs a bit more than the AXE16000 though. Tech radar reviewed it. https://www.techradar.com/reviews/draytek-vigor3910...

    2023 Smartphones To Get Wifi 7 Support. TP-Link Announces Wifi 7 Routers

    Indeed. Their maximum wifi transmission power is also capped by regulation at 100mW whereas North America's (US and Canada) is 1000mW.

    2023 Smartphones To Get Wifi 7 Support. TP-Link Announces Wifi 7 Routers

    Thanks for the reply and agree on most counts. That's why I said to take TP-Link's announcement with a pinch of salt. I'm thinking that these developments will accelerate the release schedule of Wifi 7-supported devices and routers in 2023-2024 though, as manufacturers love the 'first to market...

    AX-89X All Ethernet Ports except 10G-Base T are not wokring

    Have you tried rolling back the firmware to the previous version? Some RT-AX89X users complained about their hardware freezing up after the latest firmware update. https://www.snbforums.com/threads/asus-rt-ax89x-firmware-version-3-0-0-4-386-47468-2022-10-18.81378/page-2#post-801620

    Release ASUS RT-AX89X Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386.47468 (2022/10/18)

    I updated the firmware on the RT-AX89X and the pair of GT-AXE11000 AiMesh nodes it was linked to via 2.5G ethernet backhaul. Started getting random device disconnections on the GT-AXE11000 AiMesh nodes but not on the RT-AX89X. Then the WebUI, AiMesh tab showed that my 2.5G ethernet backhauls to...

    GT-AXE11000 issues with internet speeds

    For wired speeds to go above 1Gbps, the router needs at least two multi gig/2.5G ethernet ports, one (WAN) connected to your cable modem and the other (LAN) to your PC. Otherwise, like what was mentioned in the earlier posts, you'll be limited to less-than-1GBps wired speeds either on the WAN or...

    GT-AXE16000 Owner's Thread

    Similar to what RMerlin said, I think range varies based on how your home and furniture are arranged, router placement, weather conditions etc. Posted something on my experience with wifi coverage on the GT-AXE11000 vs the GT-AXE16000 in my home environment...

    GT-AXE16000 Owner's Thread

    Appreciate you and your team's advice on this. The thing is, I've had most of those same advanced features enabled on the GT-AXE11000 and RT-AX89X without encountering those wifi problems seen with the AXE16000. Same story with the enabling AiProtection and throttling my wired speeds issue that...

    GT-AXE16000 Owner's Thread

    In my case, it was my devices, IOS, Android and MS being randomly booted off wifi (connected without internet) and being unable to reconnect to any of the bands until I'd turned off and on the wireless functions on said devices a couple of times throughout the day. Glad to hear that Asus fixed...
