Bought this for long range at home iPad gaming use and a heavily congested environment
The Wi-Fi 6E is great Has about the same range as 5G because it's not a big jump The thing is if you ever do a survey what you'll notice is the cable companies aren't giving anybody anything higher than five and even the tethering is outputting five in fact my iPad M4 probably outputs 5 even though it accepts the Wi-Fi 6 and 6e 60 can't share bands It jumps down to six when I get a little further away through walls it even goes to five sometimes but because it's all working the way it's working it is never an issue If you have it set up right where you keep all bands on 2.4 GHz set to 20 for the bandwidth pipeline 5 GHz set to auto for the pipeline 6 gigahertz set to auto for the pipeline. Use the same broadcast SSID for all three That's how you allow it to engage 6e and even though it maneuvers stuff around I can tell the difference that even when it's not on 6E there's a difference in how it handles things because of the way it works but that's how you activate it Nobody knows and it's okay if it's not on it I would be getting crazy interference and and drops and spikes and all kinds of stuff or be unusable on 5 GHz on a dual band router In fact I had a dual band TP-Link you definitely want the AX that's the other thing You want to keep all all the things set to like all the protocols You don't want AX only but you want them all on for 5 GHz and for 6 Gigahertz Again same broadcast SSID for all of them same passwordPut it up nice and high It's usually best to just leave all the antennas completely vertical I've tested all the different types of angled settings It's best to truly leave it that way if it's on the same floor and just put it as high as possible close to the ceiling cuz Wi-Fi branches out and then comes down. I performed Wi-Fi surveys prior to purchasing this one They're so much default you know routers from the companies and I live in an area where nobody's even really wise enough to like use their own modem like I do and the routers I only use the router When I want a game like down the hall and and you know through some walls and everything so it's important you know that you don't need a killer speed or anything but it's important that you know you still getvirtually collision free performance and that's what it does It might drop it down to six or well as you get further away through a door and stuff and a little for if you a little bit further than that through heavy paying glass or anything it might be on the five but it'll still perform properly which that would be with any router really I bought this on Prime day and got it for an amazing price it was only $140 now Wi-Fi 6 came out in 2019 6e was I believe 2022 possibly 2023 I don't see the internet providers bothering giving us Wi-Fi six devices of those stupid modem router combos and the area I live in there's just nobody here really maybe one person but there's really no one around me that's even smart enough to even like do something like that They don't care so I always hardwire my modem and just switch the wires I keep each one connected to my device I keep rubber band on each end color coded and I just swap my modem and then I only do the router I plug it in for when I want a game wherever cuz 5G also wide band is fine from the cell phone company for gaming as well but if I'm in my own place it only makes sense to use my gigabit and honestly when I'm in my room I still do the same thing because when I'm right near it it truly does give you gigabit speeds It'll always be between like $800 and a little over a thousand you know 1,024 would be a gigabit but you'll see it'll peak up to like for briefly up so like in the 15 1600s you know but it'll average just over a gigabit It'll give me my full upstream My upstream is only 35 I don't have fiber thousand up thousand down like I used to cuz I live in a different area but I get virtually my full upstream even in the worst conditions it's just the worst conditions you know you'd be tinkering all the time with a 5 GHz where I live a dual band Again it's different when it's in 5 GHz mode when it's set up for that Many devices don't even support Wi-Fi 6 or 6E for example my Xbox Series X does not on the old router it was unplayable On the new one if I bring it down that way it plays like a dream and it's only on you know the 5 GHz band and a lot of times when I go through the door into this one room based routes from Wi-Fi 6 to that and even though it's flooded with it it has to do it the architecture of how the greenfield band works the Wi-Fi 60 and how it all works together It's like even though it's dropping it down there's other parts I'm trying to explain this in layman's other parts of the code and the ways developed where it's still using the perks of what Wi-Fi 6 and 6E give you even if it has to drop you down to five Yeah you'll get slower speeds but you won't have to deal with other people's 5 GHz connections interfering with your connection if it drops you down to five It's still treated the same as long as your device supports it and it's set to accept it either if it's got an on-off switch or auto for 6E you always want to leave that on or set to auto like the iPad a lot of the newer iPad support it I guess the iPhone's my Samsung Galaxy S 23 Ultra supports it When I go to the other room I like to do mobile gaming on my iPad M4 so it'll start off at 6E If I leave through a door down the hall it'll drop the six and I could walk past the area I want to go to it'll stay on six If I go through this door with this double payne glass window it'll traditionally drop down to five or I should say generally sometimes it does stay at 6 If you check it but if you're not obsessed with checking it and you you know you might get first and if you forget about that you know you can tell the difference just just look at the speed test I mean there won't be as fast but they won't be like up and down and up and down like a traditional dual band if it's on the five that's the point I mean yeah if you're downloading something you might you know if you just don't want to use ultra wide band even though I have an excellent ulcer white band connection in this area I mean you may want to swap suit if you're far away when you're downloading something but gaming doesn't go off of that it goes off of latency You can nerf your speeds down to very low and also you know how chatty it is before it releases stuff like 60/120 instead of the thousands of the set to I'm sure some people know what I'm talking about but no this router is great If you're having trouble if you leave in a heavily congested environment that's just full of stuff where you can't get far away I mean you know but you're you can still get your connection but once you get there you know then you're constantly fiddling with channels and stuff no this is a set of forget it deal and it's going to get down to six then the like 5 but it's still technically operating a 6e like the benefits of it cuz like I said my series X only accepts five PS five Accepts six. But I mean just think about the fact that the series X on the dual band 5 GHz in the same area will have lots of issues but it has no issues whatsoever and it can't even do you know it's on five even without checking and it's fine and generally in the worst conditions from that far away I'll still get 30 to 100 download and 25 to my max 35 up but sustained like nice and smooth not all up and down or what pauses and breaks which means even collisions might be coming to play but it's using because of the way it's designed it's using the enhancements of what having those bands unified to create a 6E Greenfield Band network can provide and that's the whole point for buying one in the first place really And even if there's a couple people that have Wi-Fi 6 You don't have to worry about it especially if you have a 6e but that's the way you do it A lot of people don't know it but yeah do what I said about the three bands and that automatically engages 6E if you can pull it and it also has an operating in a different style Everything else is set to auto channels output frequencies like you know 2040 80 120 except you want to Nerf the 2.4 down to 20 not 2040 Hope this helpsVer másVer menos
