    can anyone justify the price of wifi6 ax mesh

    and until you get rid of all your none wifi 6 clients they will continue to make the wifi 6 platform perform poorly and not reach its potential , never mind the missing or yet to be enabled features that wifi 6 make up plus as tim has pointed out ofdma doesnt even work until there are at least...

    can anyone justify the price of wifi6 ax mesh

    and still asking a price that in no way reflects the technology , sure ppl can buy what ever they want whenever they want and some may have deep pockets and can afford to spend up big but like the new cell phones its start to become a bit of a shock at the price they are asking for a "phone /...

    Amplifi Alien

    so lets ask that question again , how do you know its so awesome , what clients do you have that can take advantage or even have the capability , i bet if you sat an ac router next to an ax router with OFDMA enabled and even mu-mimo enabled you would not notice any difference with a mixed client...

    News Netgear Adds Wi-Fi 6 Mesh System And AC3000 Mesh Extender To Orbi Line

    so it seems netgear may have made the decision to not have 4 x 4 160mhz on its band 3 for more than price , seems much of the world cant use 160mhz on band 3 due to local regulations and 160mhz is limited to band 2 ch 36 to 49 , they could have put the 4 x 4 on band 2 however but most 3 band...

    Wi-Fi 6 Performance Roundup: Five Routers Tested

    hi guys can someone confirm something for me here in australia ive been told we only have spectrum to operate 160MHz which is between CH36-CH64. so this would mean a tri band ax router would not be able to run 160Mhz if the 4 x 4 is on band 3 only i see the ax1100 has 4 x 4 on band 2 and...

    Wi-Fi 6 Performance Roundup: Five Routers Tested

    hi tim could that not be the case with your tests and conclusions in only using the intel wifi chipset that it may be causing the variations seen by the difference in router chipsets performance as its noticable all the broadcom chipset routers performed worse i know using the single client...

    TP-Link Announces Walmart-exclusive, sub-$100 Wi-Fi 6 Router

    if its in AP mode the upstream router is controlling the connected clients and will show them in its connect client list as with most wireless routers set to ap mode all functionality is bypassed apart from its wifi

    News Netgear Adds Wi-Fi 6 Mesh System And AC3000 Mesh Extender To Orbi Line

    it should work but its not wifi 6 , its the same standard as the rbk50 series but that should be fine if you really dont need wifi6 in that area advertising bull crap the dhcp server can support 252 clients , however the wifi will struggle with with more than say 30 clients per node

    News Netgear Adds Wi-Fi 6 Mesh System And AC3000 Mesh Extender To Orbi Line

    what i can tell you about coverage comes from a different AX mesh system you will see in my signature what i can tell you is the ax backhaul works far further apart than with AC mesh units , whether this is the same with the netgear ax orbi may be a different matter as i think the splitting of...
