Re: Hub 5: Our first ever WiFi 6 broadband router
@andrewmm i totally agree, rather spend effort in splitting your wifi off a provider's device and allow the provider to focus on what they are good at which is routing traffic and leave off loading which is the last segment being wifi to a decent set of devices you own and control.2.1KViews3likes0CommentsRe: Hub 5: Our first ever WiFi 6 broadband router
Think about splitting your routing/modem from your Wifi and put a much better wifi mesh system in place like the ASUS Zenwifi XT12, make a world of difference, gives you more stability and the ability to have more devices on your wireless network and gives you greater control and protection around your wifi.2.4KViews3likes0CommentsRe: Hub 5: Our first ever WiFi 6 broadband router
@davewillo rather go for the ASUS Mesh, I put the ASUS Zenwifi XT12 mesh it's way better than the HUB kit and then you use the hub purely as a model. Works very well and lt's way more stable. Just make sure you buy future proof wifi, it's all about the quality and the chipsets you use a cheaper set normally comes with fewer quality chipsets and this has a big impact on your wifi abilities. What a lot of people need to understand often kits the device connecting to the wifi that determines the connection type and the distance from the WIFI unit that gets the speed of throughput to the internet connection, older devices are not AX enabled and then depending on the device chipset may only connect at 400 Mb's so it's not the line speed its the wifi connect speed. on the XT I am able to get a speed of 960MB's on an AX enabled apple device chipset on a 5Ghz channel if I connect to a 2Ghz channel I only get 28 to 300MB's connect speed. Both these are still below my network internet speed. The other thing to remember is the contention ratio of your wifi. The more devices connecting the more the signal is shared and that drops the speed to the Modem as well. Good luck with your wifi setup hope you come right.1.3KViews2likes0CommentsRe: Hub 5: Our first ever WiFi 6 broadband router
What are you trying to achieve with this, by the way, this just shows the status of the router and will highlight if you have any channel errors or issues. It won't highlight your throughput or speed of line you need to run line tests through the router for that.2.1KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Hub 5: Our first ever WiFi 6 broadband router
Don't take an image screenshot just click and drag the mouse down across the table data and then ctrl c to copy and ctrl v to paste into the message it will come out like this as an example Channel Frequency (Hz) Power (dBmV) SNR (dB) Modulation Channel ID 1 138750000 3.599998 40.366287 QAM256 1 2 146750000 3.299999 40.946209 QAM256 2 3 154750000 3.299999 40.946209 QAM256 3 4 162750000 3.299999 40.946209 QAM256 4 5 170750000 3.299999 40.366287 QAM256 5 6 178750000 3.099998 40.946209 QAM256 62.1KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Hub 5: Our first ever WiFi 6 broadband router
Hi @dmason go to the routers home page do not login click on the link below login that says router status, then go to the downstream tab and copy the data and paste it into a message on the community, you can do the same for the upstream and the network log tabs. That will show the stats.2.1KViews0likes0Comments
