    RT-BE88U - 10G speeds are 1G

    Jumbo packets (as I understand) are tricky. Is there a network switch in the middle, and if so does it support the same 9000 packet size? (As a confession I've never tried SSH and I suspect you have a better understanding than I).... I just verified on my BE98 Pro WebGUI Under Advanced...

    Have you tried turning off Jumbo Packets and testing?

    Who’s using an ASUS WiFi 7 router directly from a 5 Gig or faster fiberoptic ONT?

    One thing you can try that I didn't see mentioned is when you run the speed test on the Eero try to note down the server that it connects to to perform the test. Make sure you manually select the same one when testing the BE30000. They may not be auto selecting the same server, also traffic...

    I need some advise to upgrade Asus AI mesh setup

    TUF models have more gaming features than the RT models. (I was comparing between the two, or more specifically RT-AX82U). ExpertWiFi is very new business grade equipment. (When I open available instructions the last I saw showed Copyright 2024). Since you have a RT-AC68U still in service...

    Struggling with Asus ZenWiFi BE30000 aka 3 node BQ16 Pro bundle

    I do have something to share. The MLO broadcast is not compatible with prior WiFi generations. There is, at least on the BE98 Pro, a MLO tab where there is a toggle switch to turn it off and on. Toggle it off then on. Upon turning it on there should be a pop up. The WiFi 7/MLO SSID should...

    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_51685 (2024/04/15)

    Yes I am more in the ASUS ROG and Zentalk forum. (Plus I am back in school full time)... As I understand a representative said (on one of the two I mentioned), they will still make important security updates BUT, my interpretation is that they are not obliged to. I posted a Looking For post...

    Release ASUS RT-AC68U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.386_51685 (2024/04/15)

    Anyone notice the RT-AC68U has entered the EOL list? I'm looking to replace it.

    MLO performance and Limitations

    At least for the BE98 Pro when you toggle the MLO switch from OFF to ON there's a pop up asking for two SSIDs (and passwords). The first is the MLO SSID, which should be different. The 2nd is the Legacy SSID which all non-WiFi 7 devices can connect to. You can then create IoT/Guest Networks...

    News Acer Unveils Wave 7 Mesh Router with Wi-Fi 7 and Multi-Link Operation for Seamless Home Connectivity

    Debated mentioning this in the first place because it is hard for me to check if they ever change this. There is/was a maximum number of Mesh routers capped at 3 (total, including primary) last I checked. Yes, if you are coming from ASUS like me we have been spoiled. (From what I know owning...

    Looking For- BQ16 Pro One Piece/Split Package So Cal

    As background I try to avoid duplicate router models to avoid "double the trouble" so to speak. My ASUS RT-AC68U (V2 if I'm not mistaken) has (finally) been added to ASUS' EOL list, and it actually sends WiFi all the way to the street in front of the house. As such it has now become a...

    Asus BQ16 Pro (BE30000 Best Buy) WiFi 7 vs ET12 vs ET8 Speeds/Connectivity

    It sounds like you have some signal weakness issues on some devices. Since you have WiFi 7 clients it may be reasonable to try them out. As I understand the AiMesh Topology page shows the connection strength among the nodes. Definitely consider purchasing from a reseller that doesn't charge a...

    Thank you. If you have an ASUS.com account and register it there it usually shows your warranty end date (FYI)...

    ASUS ZenWiFi BQ16 Pro (BE30000 BB) Install Inquiry

    Yes setting up the same SSID and password is a trick I learned from online. Sometimes if you get a buggy client simply "forget" the network then re-set up the connection.

    ASUS ZenWiFi BQ16 Pro (BE30000 BB) Install Inquiry

    ZYXEL is a company I don't have experience with using their networking products. For my home I don't use PoE either, and unless future expansion may go that direction, they tend to produce a lot of heat. (Maybe that was just bad luck when my wife brought home some work equipment with it)...

    BQ16 Pro Quad Band

    Oh I did have a question which may be worth sharing: I noticed that this model may have a 3 year warranty? (Trying to research on ASUS.com I eventually came across that warranty could be 2-3 years AND might depend on store of purchase)? 3 years would be 50% more than the typical 2. Shrugs....

    BQ16 Pro Quad Band

    Interesting IF ASUS uses 192.168.1 for ZenWiFi vs 192.168.50 for it's other router products, or did you change it to that? Thanks for sharing this update! (Still looking to buy one unit unfortunately. Wife would kill me if I bought 3 for sure, and my chances of survival may be iffy even for...

    BQ16 Pro Quad Band

    Aye. I'm sorry they did not work out for you. They've had two updates to firmware now, which I feel they should be updating other models as well. Pretty much stuck waiting for 1-pack to be released, or splitting...

    BQ16 Pro Quad Band

    I was reading through the reviews on Best buy.com and I believe I came across yours. Thanks for the detailed analysis. I think it solidifies my thought that I'll stick to getting just one BQ16 Pro as it would fit nicely where I'm hoping to install it. I am concerned Velcroing the bottom may...
