A single unit is not enough if your neighbors are using Mesh wifi. My next door neighbor's wifi is swarming all over my house and i had to relocate the router and change channels

I'm using rt-ac67u twin pack, in a full wireless setup, on a 5000 sqft bungalow house with unifi 500mbps. I want to upgrade to a new router and keep these 2 units as nodes, still in a wireless setup.I placed router on ground floor, connected to TV box via Ethernet. On same floor, I have the node in a bedroom 10m away, it is connect to the box via Ethernet as well.
Intending to keep one ac67u as node on second floor, I don't know which WiFi 6 model to choose? Is AX56U, AX92U , AX3000 or AX82U a better choice? Especially, considering the compatibility issue of Wi-Fi 6 router pairing with WiFi 5 node. Can someone help explain the pro and con of these 4 models as the router? |

Not sure about combability since I don't have AC67U. But it should work fine on AiMesh (if firmware is okay). Get 3x3 router for best performance as AC67U is 3x3. So AX92U and AX82U will give you better AiMesh performance through wireless connection. dustyoasis liked this post

Thank you for point out the 3*3 transmisson feature. Does AX82U has better range than AX92U?

The other one is the ONU modem. The one you want to change is the wireless router. Yes, just setup and key in username and password will do. Do select unifi as ISP.and all Asus models should support UNIFI? I am abit confused as well because my UNIFI has two devices, i think it is called fibre. Yes, all Asus routers support unifi. |

Does it help with the range of the router?Yes, all Asus routers support unifi. :thumbsup: Currently I am using the Huawei one that UNIFI provides... the 2.4 ghz is so slow dont know why.... and the range of 5ghz cuts alot... I stay in a condo around 1k sq ft.... not sure if the range is limited or because the doors are a factor as well... my speed is only 50 mbps I have watched both of your video for ax55 and ax56u... A bit technical for me... Based on my condo unit and speed package. Would you recommend me ax55 instead? This post has been edited by BacktoBasics: Oct 5 2021, 12:09 PM |

Both of them are great for starters. |

Does anyone here know how to get the root access into this router?
I can only get the user permission when doing SSH like below: maxibi@home:/tmp/etc# sudo su -sh: sudo: not found |
Change to: | 0.0165sec
0.32
