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

    Thanks! How (and why) did you set up the bridge?

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

    Hmm… ChatGPT is recommending I try cloning the MAC address of the original eero onto the ASUS router. Hadn’t tried that yet but I will when I get home from work.

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

    I have Frontier 5 Gig service. Frontier provides and sets up an Eero Max 7 which shows 5.1 Gig up and down on its internal speed test. As soon as they left I swapped in my ASUS BE 30000 mesh router for the eero along with 2 remote, wired BE 30000 mesh nodes. Main ASUS router internal speed test...

    BE30000 (AKA BQ16 Pro) not getting full bandwidth

    Update… installed a 10 G card to my downstairs PC. Main router is upstairs, which goes into a 10 G switch which feeds my 2 mesh nodes among other things.The downstairs PC is connected via the 10 G LAN port on its associated node. So all hard wired. At first, it didn’t work well. Internet speeds...

    BE30000 (AKA BQ16 Pro) not getting full bandwidth

    I know I won’t see much or any real improvement with the 5 Gig versus the 2 Gig at this time. I’m planning on upgrading my older PC to a new one later this year so it will be 10 Gig capable… my newer PC only needs an add on PCI card. I also have a 10 Gig capable 8 bay Synology NAS. I won’t have...

    BE30000 (AKA BQ16 Pro) not getting full bandwidth

    That all makes sense. It’s just irksome that the Eero sees the full 5 Gig bandwidth out of the box and the ASUS doesn’t.

    BE30000 (AKA BQ16 Pro) not getting full bandwidth

    Sorry, could you be a little more specific? My mesh is fully wired so there is an Ethernet backhaul. I have 2 PCs wired to the network at 2 different BE30000’s. Everything else is wireless, with only 1 WiFi 7 enabled device so far. You’re saying to check the internet speed at one of the PCs...

    BE30000 (AKA BQ16 Pro) not getting full bandwidth

    Thanks for the reply. The Eero is the Max 7… new WiFi 7 model with 10 Gig WAN port and speed was measured at the router using the Eero app. For the ASUS, also used the 10 Gig WAN port and measured at the router using the ASUS app (Settings > QoS > Internet Speed). Is there a better way to do...

    BE30000 (AKA BQ16 Pro) not getting full bandwidth

    I have a mesh set up using 3 ASUS BE30000 units. Originally I had 2 Gig internet (Frontier fiber) and had no problem getting full bandwidth at the main router (around 2300 MB (2.3 Gig) uploads and downloads). Yesterday I upgraded my internet speed to 5 Gig. This was provisioned by an onsite...
