    AX88U Pro Optimal Antenna Positioning?

    Well, if you currently are not experiencing any problems in the far locations of your place, then I would not recommend moving it. Of course you can always unhang it and move it around temporarily … and run speed tests at different locations. In my case, i know my location is not optimal...

    AX88U Pro Optimal Antenna Positioning?

    I have the same router. I have my router below and to the left of the TV about 1 foot above the floor. Great coverage for my 2000 foot single floor home. I know higher is better but the current position has worked fine
