When you use Ethernet connect to mesh node, you are not affect by the 50% Wi-Fi capacity issue.

In layman terms

If your phone connect to mesh node wirelessly, 50% airtime used for your phone, another 50% airtime used for the mesh node to connect to upstream main node. Hence, resulted in the half capacity issue on dual band mesh WiFi.

But a lot people got it wrong, it's not halving the Internet speed. It's halving the capacity. Hence if you have a AX6000 dual-band mesh, you can still get 500Mbps on the mesh node over Wi-Fi easily.

Oh ya, all TP-Link mesh uses multi-band backhaul. They no longer use dedicated backhaul. Got pros and cons for this.

then tri-band save the troubles to identify the right model of dual-band mesh to buy to get the max speed.

Just buy the highest AX or BE number you can afford.

An AX6000 dual band mesh will outperform an AX3600 tri-band mesh if both of them are of decent quality.

ic. but price wise AX6000 will be much much more ex rite? if the max speed is about the same that can be achieve by both, of course one can consider go for the lower capacity tri-band mesh as well.

Dual-Band AX6000 will achieve much higher speed than Tri-Band AX3600.

what about interferrence? since there are two 5GHz radio way on tri-band for signals to pass to and fro.

Thanks for the simple and clear explanation, adds value to self knowledge and helps if in the future getting upgrade for hardwares . Rather than self centered ego boosting one line replies, still a relief to see someone still around who is willing to share.

By the way, in another words ,as the bandwidth speed from ISP goes higher , the current ax1800 will also struggle to dish out close to subscribe speed right , even through ethernet connected to a wireless node?

I won't dare say this is truly a TP-Link device, but at least I do know it has WiFi6 tech running in it.

by that , is safe to assume that a thrash dual-band mesh with ax rating 1800 can outperform ac rated tri band?

Finally downgraded from 800Mbps to 30Mbps.

Reason: Not fully utilizing 800Mbps for parents house & using Unifi Air 5G for myself.

Most triband system will use two different 5GHz band for each radio

36-48 low band UNII-1
149-165 high band UNII-3

Hence, co channel interference or adjacent channel interference is not even possible.

Yes as eventually you’ll be limited to the capacity of AX1800.

The theoretical capacity is 1775Mbps, after signal drop and other overhead, you’ll be looking at around 266Mbps max speed over WiFi (15%) and around 532Mbps if desktop connected via wired to mesh node (30%). Main node and mesh node is on wireless backhaul.

That’s why higher specs mesh system exist. It’s mainly to address the performance when using wireless backhaul and WiFi devices connected to mesh node.

As for your last question, it’ll still depends on capacity. I believe tri band AC systems are at least AC2200 and they have a bigger capacity hence it’ll outperform AX1800.

Would like to ask anyone having connection issues. Google websites are severely slow and other websites seems to be the same. Changed dns and restarted router modem.

Currently encountered in Kota Kinabalu.

Damn unifi acting up again... internet has been up down up down whole day...

Those days at 100Mbps is way better than 300Mbps now... cant wait to terminate in April.

I'm having the same concern. The bill keep reflecting wrong amount. Although there's a waiver I'm still worrieed.

This one is even more confusing...

Please help me explain this mess. I switched to SWU 3.0 RM119 @ 500 Mbps in October.

Are we having the same billing breakdown for the 2nd month? Meow package cums with 600 minutes local calls quota...

I think we are in the same thing. Mine has 600 mins of free calls too. The billing still haunts me tho.

Has anyone here "upgraded" their UnifiTV Ultimate (Legacy) pack to something cheaper like Ruby Plus? Thereby saving RM30/mth and get TVBAnywhere.
