    Wireless router with good coverage for a large home ?

    TP-Link TL-PA9020P. They are huge, but the fastest I found.

    Wireless router with good coverage for a large home ?

    Since we were talking about problems with the RT-AC86U, does this line in the log file just after booting mean anything bad is going on? May 5 13:05:05 kernel: nand: Could not find valid ONFI parameter page; aborting

    Wireless router with good coverage for a large home ?

    Oh yair, I knew in my heart that I probably needed the upstairs access point, which is why I bought a cheap RT-AX58U soon after we moved into this house a few months ago. It's a credit to the RT-AC86U that the internet was borderline usable in that room without using the access point! Once my...

    Wireless router with good coverage for a large home ?

    You're right! Biggest stress test for me was getting the 5GHz signal to a room that is upstairs and towards the front of the house. (It just happens to be my study.) Internal and external walls are brick and the upper floor is concrete; thanks to some interesting wiggles in the shape of the...

    Hi from sunn Perth in Western Australia

    Hi Marc... Welcome, not that I am very active on this forum. There are some very smart people here. We moved to Perth from Victoria earlier this year. Yes, it's definitely sunny! Leon

    Wireless router with good coverage for a large home ?

    Now that you mention it, I can't think of a single negative review he's given for an Asus router. :) I did also read a few other reviews, and didn't find too many naysayers. Thanks for the replies. I realise that I didn't provide any information about my setup or what I was hoping to improve...

    Wireless router with good coverage for a large home ?

    FWIW, I was encouraged by the data in Dong Ngo's review at https://dongknows.com/asus-rog-rapture-gt-ax6000-gaming-router-review/, and decided to pull the trigger on the GT-AX6000 in case the sale price ends!

    Wireless router with good coverage for a large home ?

    Would the GT-AX6000 have significantly better 5Ghz WiFi range than the RT-AX86U? I am looking to upgrade my RT-AC86U and there is a good sale price on the GT-AX6000 in Australia at the moment (about the same price as the RT-AX86U at a couple of shops). I don't love the look of the GT-AX6000, but...

    IOT's Disconnecting from AC86U but will come back online if im next to them with my phone

    Here in Australia we have a rebranded version of the Tuya Smart Life app called Grid Connect, and the behaviour and appearance of the two is very similar. This is what I think might be happening (based on similar frustration I had with Grid Connect and an outdoor "smart" power point). I suspect...

    Tons of dumb problems on RT-AX58U with 3.0.0.4.386.47029

    All sorted... For some reason, the copy of the firmware I had on my laptop got corrupted. I didn't think these things actually happen, but I guess there's a reason why the checksums are provided.

    Tons of dumb problems on RT-AX58U with 3.0.0.4.386.47029

    Another dumb problem with this quirky router... Mine is definitely V1, not V2, as I did have Asuswrt-Merlin 386.7-2 running on it for a while. I downgraded to the latest stock firmware while troubleshooting an ISP-related issue, after first doing the downgrade to the stock version from 1 Oct...
