    Anyone Getting over 2G on the 2.5G WAN port of RT-AX86U?

    Likely a compatibility issue. You should really test a different router to make sure theres not something funky going on with the AX86U platform. XB8 is a BCM3390 DOCSIS platform tied to 3x BCM6715 Gen 2 4x4 radios. Don't see any alt CPU in unit, granted the 6715's have their own A7's for...

    Looking for a 10Gbps wired router

    I think it ends up more silly when it comes to the lower end SoC stuff Broadcom offers. A7 on those triple/quad's pools everything from what I can see. Granted.. a 4x4 "add on chip" has it's own "A7" for processing. Significantly weaker than B53 + "A7" 4x4 they offer. IE: Evolved "Penta...

    Announcing the ROG Rapture GT-BE19000 Tri-Band WiFi 7 Gaming Router

    Just commenting where US ISP's are heading on hardware end. Custom ONT/ONU's and D4.0 will be equipped with 10G Ethernet. Many fiber companies already have 8 gig speed tiers in most major cities. Spectrum (ISP) for example will offer both DPoE 10G PON (Newer development) and D4.0 (Legacy...

    Announcing the ROG Rapture GT-BE19000 Tri-Band WiFi 7 Gaming Router

    There will be an influx of US ISPs providing 10G copper solutions in the next couple years. DOCSIS 4.0 + XGS PON Migration. DOCSIS 4.0 side will require swapping out the nodes, taps, and connectors for ones capable of 1.8ghz. Spectrum for example is currently migrating to high split in major...

    Announcing the ROG Rapture GT-BE19000 Tri-Band WiFi 7 Gaming Router

    Nice looking design. Lacks SFP (Prob wont matter as much in North America unless we move past 10G), but has dual 10G for switch routing to home panel.

    Radio engineers: Why doesn't the AX88U Pro's antenna array outperform the AX86U Pro's?

    I'm glad you want to show off, but I'm pretty certain you knew what I was referring to when it comes to TX lock rates at distance/SNR Maybe I should have said MCS index instead....happy? Either way.. We're way off topic.. I just wanted to know why this ONT or back end service impacts WL...

    Radio engineers: Why doesn't the AX88U Pro's antenna array outperform the AX86U Pro's?

    ???? What are you even saying lol You're making a simple subject overcomplicated for no reason. If I have a 2x2 device locking into a lower QAM tier, it doesn't matter if its 2x2 or 4x4....

    Radio engineers: Why doesn't the AX88U Pro's antenna array outperform the AX86U Pro's?

    And that matters how? 4x4 vs 2x2 wont change QAM modulation

    Radio engineers: Why doesn't the AX88U Pro's antenna array outperform the AX86U Pro's?

    What do you mean.. im using a 5/6ghz client and dipping into sub 1024 rates.

    Radio engineers: Why doesn't the AX88U Pro's antenna array outperform the AX86U Pro's?

    It's a consumer BE800. It's been out for a year.... IPQ9574

    Radio engineers: Why doesn't the AX88U Pro's antenna array outperform the AX86U Pro's?

    It's definitely packet related given a straight RJ45 connection is more consistent, but susceptible to said issue. I just laugh and cry myself to sleep every time I reset a GUI stats setting and instantly get full throughput to servers innately bottlenecking at 1/4th the speed prior. Even on...

    Radio engineers: Why doesn't the AX88U Pro's antenna array outperform the AX86U Pro's?

    Nothing seems to matter... I've power cycled around 6 different routers here.. The QCA 1220 platform is the strongest for throughput, when it doesn't even make sense. Just going to assuming its a routing conflict and I need more RAM and or RISC V on ONT end. Issue happens on wired, just less...

    Radio engineers: Why doesn't the AX88U Pro's antenna array outperform the AX86U Pro's?

    It's fine.. I just want you to explain why a why 2x2 device will bottleneck throughput unless I reset my ONT via SC/ACP, Clearing stats or running an ONT>OLT speed test. No one seems to have a clue. 4x4 connection can hold higher throughput, even at lower QAM rates. Not a wireless interference...

    Radio engineers: Why doesn't the AX88U Pro's antenna array outperform the AX86U Pro's?

    I really don't care if you wanna ego me. lol Why would it matter.. Just making the argument that certain samples do perform better (same channel, same bonding. same firmware.. same everything settings wise). If you don't believe me, thats fine ;)

    Radio engineers: Why doesn't the AX88U Pro's antenna array outperform the AX86U Pro's?

    Wherever the network processing is offloaded for wireless. 4x4 BCM radios have their own internal processing on radio and wont even touch the main B53. Not exactly sure how it works on QCA. Can you explain why a fiber ONT can process higher throughput when internal stats are cleared or an ONT...

    Radio engineers: Why doesn't the AX88U Pro's antenna array outperform the AX86U Pro's?

    Have a Qualcomm router with 2.2ghz A73.. its stronger, but has the same general issues for WL purposes.. 1.7ghz NPU. My Asus routers are worse with Fiber.

    Radio engineers: Why doesn't the AX88U Pro's antenna array outperform the AX86U Pro's?

    Prob just a different FEM selection.. I can't tell you otherwise unless a different style AC adapter somehow impacts throughput.. (One was original ASUS branded, other ACBEL.. ASUS started giving unbranded 3rd parties around 2021-2022... Sold one to a friend so I can't exactly test it). 2x...

    Radio engineers: Why doesn't the AX88U Pro's antenna array outperform the AX86U Pro's?

    Sounds packet related. My throughput drops on my fiber connection unless I run a ONT>OLT speed test to the software backend they use.. It's a weird issue because I can more or less manipulate how wireless performs through ONT side lol. Full 940 WL over 2x2, but it doesn't last long... 5...

    Radio engineers: Why doesn't the AX88U Pro's antenna array outperform the AX86U Pro's?

    As I said prior, the previous AX58U was Best buy exclusive for US/NA market and "made/assembled" in Taiwan. Everyone else (Amazon, Newegg etc) got RT-AX3000 and shipped from Vietnam. It's the same router per FCC certification. European AX58U was Chinese. I assume it's just a control/pricing...

    News Gemtek Hosts Closed-Door Event at its Nan Kang Office amid Computex Taipei, Unveiling its Latest Wi-Fi 7 AI Router

    Yeah ID is pretty out there. Gemtek hasn't had much certified for US FCC aside from a few ISP solutions. The previous WIFI used plume SW.. :\
