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

    I've been running 10 Gbps between my PC and NAS for a few years now, it makes a massive difference for file transfers, but I would agree that it's not that useful for most other things. However, it means that I can put my spinning rust in a NAS out of the way, so I don't have to have them in my...

    News MSI Showcases Roamii WiFi 7 Mesh System at COMPUTEX 2024

    I think it's the IPQ5302 on the Lite model as it lacks USB 3.0 support and then maybe the IPQ5312 and IPQ5322/5332 as that lines up with the port specs. Dongle, no idea, but Realtek seems to have that market pretty corned these days, so I wouldn't bet on MTK. Realtek showed this last year at...

    News MSI Showcases Roamii WiFi 7 Mesh System at COMPUTEX 2024

    It's a very odd line-up of products though.

    ASUS RT-BE58U

    Looks like Asus has a proper "budget" WiFi 7 router as well. Barely any tech specs so far, but it only has one 2.5 Gbps port and it's a 2x2 dual band device. It could've been a two antenna router. https://www.asus.com/networking-iot-servers/wifi-7/all-series/rt-be58u/

    ASUS RT-BE92U

    That is such a bizarre combination of hardware, but for anyone looking for multiple 2.5 Gbps ports "on a budget", this is the one to get from Asus' WiFi 7 range it seems. That said, $330 seems too steep for this.

    Non wireless router?

    No, people buy something like this. https://www.servethehome.com/fanless-intel-n200-firewall-and-virtualization-appliance-review/ Another option might be something from Odroid. https://www.hardkernel.com/

    Non wireless router?

    The issue is the 2.5 Gbps LAN/WAN, as GL.inet has this thing, with one 2.5 Gbps port... https://www.gl-inet.com/products/gl-mt2500/ It's the closest I've seen as a fully featured solution for your needs. However, if you don't mind a bit of DIY there might be some options for you out there...

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

    So what does this mean then? "There is also a factor that hardware is tested and certified with different sets of amplifiers per local regulation". That reads like hardware region lock to me. I'm not at all surprised, the routers we made also had slight variances in performance, since WiFi...

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

    Yeah, the FEM is made up by PA's and LNA's, but again, if you have a look, they're not region specific. https://www.skyworksinc.com/Products/Front-end-Modules-WiFi Changing components is nothing strange, most of this has to do with supply and if you remember, there was the pandemic and a lot of...

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

    Unless something has changed, this is not true. These days the PA and especially LNA is often built into the radio, so there's no way to change them. Even so, no router maker would offer multiple hardware SKUS with different PA's, that would making routers prohibitively costly due to how many...

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

    Actually, this isn't entirely true and I know this as someone that has been heavily involved in the development of a router with built-in antennas. First of all, you end up with issues if the antennas are too close to the main PCB of the router. These range from the antennas not working at all...

    Microsoft to block access to routers with USB storage in Windows 11 24H2

    I bet WD, D-Link and others haven't. Those are the cheap things a lot of consumers buy that don't know better.
