Im from tmnet stock dlink 850l to ax56u.
Got feel a big leap.

your explanation is as good as teda.
but experience wise when buying new router, get the most featured you can buy now if you gonna upgrade.
by the way what is your current issue with your router

that shitty black cylinder kenot pakai one..haha

ax56u (or tplink ax20) really good starter to feel what real wifi router feels like.

Like pikachu said if can go ax3000 or else 56u.
Cause my house only few ppl use then i take 56u for reason. You can try tp link cheaper option but almost same.

Totally agree on this.
Felt like much more stable compare the black cylinder.
Speed test black cylinder go so many jitter on speed.
Can see updown updown on test.
22ms tested on off peaktime

Asus straight line no fucked.
3ms tested after update firmware

Both to same tmnut server

Ts if you want top up rm200 get the better 1.

It is old and aging

Im still using rt-n12d from 6-7 years ago
I dont have 5hz or what also lol

Ax3000 paired with wifi 6 pcie adapter really good result for my Time 500mbps subscription. Getting around 500-580mbps when doing fast.com speedtest

If you're living in a condo unit <1.2k sq ft, the AX56U will be fine.

If 2 storey house, AX3000 will be the minimum you will need for decent internet connection. To get good connection, +1 mesh node will required.

if you can affort the ax3000 then buy it, else the ax56u
both are way better than what you currently have.
most router you buy will be better than the n12d

I living in semi d. 56u also can cover till my toilet. So not bad. Hahahaha.

rt-ax56u: 2.4Ghz 2x2:2 5Ghz 2x2:2 @80Mhz, no 160Mhz support
rt-ax58u: 2.4Ghz 2x2:2 5Ghz 2x4 @80Mhz and @160Mhz
rt-ax3000 is another name of rt-ax58u
rt-ax88u: 2.5Ghz 4x4:4 5Ghz 4x4:4 @160Mhz

Agreed..ax3000 as main & ac86u as aimesh

I have ASUS AX11000 as main router and AX56U as mesh node. Gooding.
Then again, I have A LOT of devices that connects to them..

7 xiaomi cctvs, 10 smart plugs, 6 smart light bulbs, 4 Google Nests, 2 Smart IRs, 2 Smart TVs, 2 PCs, 2 Laptops, 1 android box, several Hps...

So... ask yourself... what is your need?

if only for gaming and a few other devices... just get the Asus RT-AX55 AX1800 if you prefer Asus brand... otherwise TP-Link got AX1500 at around RM250+/-...

I'm in a semi-d (3 storey), main router AX86U + AX3000 and AX55 acting as mesh nodes, 1 router per floor, weakest 5 GHz signal will be around -60 db

Chances are you may be a getting only a weak signal in the toilet with 1 x 56U even on 2.4 GHz

Adding 1 cheap router as mesh node will make a big difference

ax3000

anyway im using AX82U

Tumpah question. How to know my router running 5 or 2.4

What is wifi 6 pcie adapter?

Ya i jest checked at all IT
Ax3000 is rm756 wow so exp
But haiz wish can get it cheaper
I think maybe end year sale???

Wow din know router is a serious business ya

Im double storey
Even using the old n12d also seems ok

Hahaha
Thats why thinking if 56u suffice

Auto switch with SmartConnect but you have to tweak the signal/bandwith value for nice failover.

Latest stock firmware is having random reboot issue now. Merlin works fine.
