    XT8 DFS causing game desync?

    Hi all, I'm after some help here hopefully. I play an online game on PC via WiFi (I know wired is better, I'm working on it). I have done this for years without issue. More recently I've been using two ZenWiFi XT8 nodes, again without issue, but recently I'm getting all kinds of desync in-game...

    Solved GT-AX6000 - Control Channel Auto issues

    So while evaluating an RT-AX89X to go with my new 2 gig Internet service, I am also trying out a GT-AX6000 and noticed an issue. When I set the bandwidth to 20/40/80/160 and have the Control Channel on Auto, it will not go into 160MHz mode. It sets the channel on 153 or 157 usually and stays...

    Unstable DFS channel selection

    I've a Netgear R7450 AC router which slowly drifts back to channel 48 from any DFS channels I set. Once the router is on 48, it doesn't go back DFS channel. At the same time, I've an Ubiquiti access point in my house which constantly stays at either 100 or 102. I'm guessing it's the problem with...

When I look at the 5ghz wifi channel (which is automatic) it is on 100. When I try to select a channel manually in the...

    So I have recently purchased an RT-AC86U to replace my ageing RT-AC68U as I now have 30+ devices connected to my network and the 68U was starting to show its age a little bit (sometimes devices were sluggish, and a couple if times it locked up completely requiring a full power off and on) The...

    ZyXel DCS (dynamic channel selection) and DFS

    My ZyXel NWA3560-N WAP has an optional feature that it terms DCS (dynamic channel selection) which is supposed to change the channels in use periodically in order to find the ones with the lowest interference. It appears as if this applies to both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radios, and is either on or...
