Wow didnt know padavan caters for 5ghz repeater mode. Very eager to try that out but need to take a leap of faith first for the not so straightforward flashing process haha.
Can sifu share any concerns if thats the intended set up (5ghz repeater) compared to LAN AP? Congestion? Stability etc? And when repeated over 5ghz, does xiaomi retransmit over 5ghz only or both 2.4/5 as well?
Greatz to know you don't need additional router for your home.Can sifu share any concerns if thats the intended set up (5ghz repeater) compared to LAN AP? Congestion? Stability etc? And when repeated over 5ghz, does xiaomi retransmit over 5ghz only or both 2.4/5 as well?
Just to answer you question here, on 5gz repeater mode - I find it is very stable for the my Xiaomi Mini.
If I were having a direct sight between router in a distance of 3M, they always stay linking at 867mbps.
The setup is linking or repeating over 5ghz and sharing to devices on 2.4ghz. Of coz sharing on 5ghz is also possible same time, but it is connected directly to main router.
Then getting a bit of fluctuation with link speed 4XX-867mbps on my another tested setup, the main router was in the living room and my Xiaomi Mini in the last room space apart around 7-8 meters with 1 wall and door in between.
With these setup 5ghz for linking routers and running on 2.4Ghz for devices, I manage to speed around 4X-5Xmbps on speedtest.
This is as good as connecting to main router at 2.4g wifi.
