Hi guys, I would like to seek some advise or recommendation. I am currently staying double story terrace house. My unifi upgraded to 800mb so I hope to be able to get speed to whole house.
Currently I am still using the given tm c1200 and it is located at the corridor of 1st floor. The centre of the house. Currently I have 2 cable running to desktop on the 1st floor. I have a repeater wa850re downstair that link to android box and TV.
Few question 1. Does changing to better router will increase the coverage 2. Which is better choice between aimesh by Asus vs those like tplink deco m9
Thanks

Thanks for the recommendation on device. base on what u said about mesh only support 500mb... so i guess u recommend to change router is a better choice. will it improve the coverage compare to c1200

I'm using TIME and using own router instead of stock router. C1200 cannot tahan with 800Mbps. I'm using 500Mbps, always got disconnection. Thanks. Thanks ... may i know what is the different for the model u recommend since the price i see quite a difference.

QUOTE(SilentVampire @ Feb 15 2019, 10:31 AM) I suggest the C3150 V2. The C5400x is really good, bur if you have an average sized house, the C3150 is more than sufficient. Remove the repeater from your network as it does not help much. Cheers for the tag. Your C9 ia still working well? No point changing if it is. Might as well wait for the AX models. I go to the local dealer shop here. C3150 out of stock. So good business. The price here around 7++. c5400x around 1299. The rest mostly dlink router. Btw does Asus worth the money in long run with its aimesh?
