Look I already Bought Linksys ea7500 Router it was very good at early days, but from past few days a new problem occurred Linksys ea7500 Keeps Dropping Internet Connection on the random basis I think I select the wrong Router, If anybody faced such kind of issue please suggest me for fix it.

I test through my ac1750 repeater at ground floor.. it can detect 5ghz signal 1st floor from b618 (3 bar) easily, while a9 (0~1 bar). Usually ground floor i cnt detect 5ghz, that is why need that repeater.

My repeater hardly detect 5ghz signal from a9, thus fail to extend 5ghz network. But b618 no problem.

is there any model of Linksys router works well with unifi and has native support to unifi? meaning it has the option to key in the unifi username password to create teh pppoe connection for WAN?

These are the wireless settings for 5Ghz, it should be fine I think.

But still not getting even 400 🤔

Any other settings I should check?

Haha, yeah, it's oversimplified I guess, and things not that clear, like there's a toggle that'll automatically choose 2.4 or 5ghz so you only have 1 SSID, but if that's turned on, your advance settings are even less. Turn that off and you can do as shown in the photo. What they did not tell you is, if you keep the same SSID, the router will still put you on the highest band automatically.
Haha, I did ask, but I smartass, now not so smart    hahahaha.
Yeah, but it's turned off and so the Linksys one even off still causes problems?



This is the latest setting, you can't specifically select 40 or 80Mhz, but I guess the router will automatically choose the highest that your device accepts?



So right now I'm using 5Ghz band at 80Mhz, still only getting measly <200mbps. I wonder if my router is broken? lol



And the only reason why I got it cause I saw this review, so looks like something wrong with my unit?

The really odd thing is, my upload is the same as this photo which is at 100mbps, only my download is crap 

1 SSID, 2.4Ghz Channel Auto and yes, Cat6 wire.

Though I've checked on all the devices that run the speedtest, it was connected to the 5Ghz channel (The router firmware still have analysis to see which channel got activity and how fast. Haha)

And yes, I am considering restoring the router to factory default and connect to it without any firmware update to see if it's a firmware update causing the issue or not.

Any idea why Unifi routers seeped so much battery power?
I had ADSL at my home and the battery drain is very minimal compared to Unifi battery drain at my relative place. Distance to router is about same for both.
However I did tried having a router turned into and Extender for that Unifi router, and connect to the Extender instead with the extenders beacon interval interval retarded around 800ms. seems to help a bit.
is beacon interval the big factor affecting battery drain on mobile devices to routers? For my own Adsl and that extender, i use very large beacon interval around 800-1000.

Hi, I've been using Huawei WS880 but it finally burnt during the recent storms. As I'm on YEP I asked for TM to renew contract and give me new router (DIR-842), which is working but coverage like not enough in the corners of the house (1600 sqft terrace, fully renovated to the back, 2 and a half storeys with the router in the middle of the house just next to airwell).

Do I need mesh wifi (which I think is for much bigger houses)? If I prefer single router to cover all, what's my options (budget <1k if possible). What resources can I use to check wifi coverage/strength of router?

Thanks, I haven't done Mikrotik before, and am not afraid of configuration or command line, but nowadays so busy I just want something which works without much setup.
Thanks, I already read that while googling. Ended up purchasing 4 Deco M9 Plus units this morning (3+1 is cheaper than 2+2), 2 for my house and 2 for my parents house who have been having router-related issues as well.

Hey guys! I'm planning to install unifi 100mbps fiber broadband in my new double storey house. My networking knowledge is very limited and have been racking my brain on whether I should get 2 access points on both ground and first floor, or simply use TP-Link Archer C2300 as recommended.


Based on my neighbour's sharing, the unifi pole is at the back and the cable was pulled from the back to the front over the roof (yellow line). His modem (blue) is then stationed in the living room.

If I were to use C2300 and maximize the wifi coverage to first floor, is it suffice to place it in living room or better on the wall at the stairway (green)?

I hope the question is not too dumb and hopefully fellow sifu can shed some light 

Just got a wild idea. How about if I use a WiFi antenna cable extension and mount the antennas at different places. Will that extend my network coverage? Thanks.
