can share the model?

I notice for the apartment i stay now. actually with one wireless router is enough to cover the whole unit.

i actually may just need one very powerful wireless router to cover the entire house for wireless connection. Looking for any wifi 6/7 that is at affordable price with very good signal and speed for this purpose.

more than sufficient, can be overkilled already.

I am on 600Mbps also 2 persons using it now. Switching to 200Mbps in Dec 2025 after contract ends.

Asus Zenwifi XT8, bro. It performs so good that I cannot find strong justification to upgrade to wifi 7 mesh yet.

TIME screw up disable my bridge mode wtf... now have to call again ask them to enable again.

wah....

thanks a lot bro. will check it out. but price wise is quite premium...

so wonder if there is other similar performance wifi router but lower price.

ya now they have on back lol

Blacktubi got give explanation why the price is expensive now.

They secretly convert to v2 then increase the price.

ic... really expensive for a wifi 6 mesh..

I bought the xt8 v1 pair for rm1550 last time.

AI answer.

The XT8 has a hardware upgrade to V2 in 2023, with a new Broadcom 1.7GHz Quad-Core CPU. The older V1 version had a 1.5GHz Quad-Core CPU. However, the amount of RAM remains the same at 512MB DDR3 memory.

Cause it can deliver 800Mbps on the mesh node on wireless backhaul reliably

Yeah, I get the full 600mbps on my secondary node despite it being almost 10m away behind a wall from my primary node.

Both nodes are connected to each other on their dedicated 3rd band at > 2Gbps.



You get what you pay for with the higher end router models, I guess.

That’s impressive.

What about latency? Becos the greatest problem for wireless backhaul is that the latency can be bad sometimes when connected to the mesh child nodes even speedtest may appear strong.

How to test this?

anyone is time having problem with facebook as it load slow cannot load the page at all.

Is there any simple phone app that can check router throughput?

Downloaded one many years ago and it's no longer available at the app strore and I even forgot the app name lol.

Use speedtest or fast app to test.

You mentioned that Speedtest was not a good test for latency. So, try fast.com?
