So to check if my BTU modem is gigabit capable I need to connect my laptop DIRECTLY to the BTU n run the above command?  YES or NO?

No support for 802.11 k, r and v which is a major drawback to me. They rely on their own roaming algorithm which may or may not work that well as it depends on the client device.

The only thing great with AiMesh is the performance as their routers have some seriously powerful radio which typical off the shelf mesh system lacks.

Of course, you get the full ASUSWRT features if you are into that.
There is AP mode on the M9 Plus. I like the 802.11r support but it is not enabled by default, you need to enable it on the app.

If you intend to run it as a router, mind that it doesn't support HyppTV at the moment. If you already have a good setup on the Mikrotik, I feel AP mode is the way to go.

You will lose out the app control which is rather intuitive but if you use Mikrotik, you probably not into that.

Yes you can have 2 options, router mode or AP mode, both r supported, can select it while setting up, choose it from the apps.  RM870 for 2 X M9 Plus, that's the price I got for cash paying.

is it normal ac1200 cant exceed 100mbps after turbo-ed? i already shut down the modem for 10 minutes

yeap i read the first, btu is correct. read your sig as well. connected to 5hgz band.

i think i was not turbo-ed at all , but the CS girl confirmed i am turbo-ed.

What is your turbo speed? Try to test with LAN cable, Cat 5e, or Cat 6.

ive no lan cable to test at the moment, but i dont hope for much, i jus hope wifi can exceed 100mbps only 

got a noob question here, if i use cat 6 from router to a lan port, then cat 5 from lan port to various devices, the various device will get cat 5 speed?

tmnet is weird tho, i said i want rm129 for 100mbps, now i get turbo-ed , for me to move to turbo i need to change all the lan cable to cat 6, now the btu also i dunno how to check, i read up there a forumer said can connect from btu to laptop, can teach me how?

thank you

Nothing hard. Just connect your LAN cable, ideally Cat 5e or Cat 6 to the BTU LAN port 1, and see the connected speed. If it is 1Gbps, then your BTU support 1Gbps.

I think this setting (BTU LAN Port 1 setting) to see if BTU LAN port limited to 100Mbps or 1Gbps should be pinned in the page... hehe.. just suggestion..

Haha, true, but it is easy to figure out if you are capped to 100Mbps or not though, just by looking at the max speed you can get on your device, so that is unnecessary unless you want to confirm.

My laptop wireless adaptor display 802.11bgn mean only support 2.4 Ghz ? after being turbo, using lan cable can get around 523 mbps but wireless connection only get 47 mpbs. By the way, I using stock router tp link archer c1200.

Hi, I just bought tenda ac18. managed to get 520mbps on wifi if close enough with the router.

Just want to ask, how come the link speed for 5ghz coneection only max on 866.7mbps on all of my device same as when I use the tplink c1200 even though it suppose to get 1300mbps link speed? device limitation?
