There seems to be a Triband version of BQ16 (called BT10) instead of quadband.

It should presumably be cheaper. No news on price yet, might be worth losing one 5Ghz band if the price is right.

I tested the BQ16, I manage to get over 2Gbps on the 10G LAN port at the mesh node via wireless backhaul MLO. Crazy stuff.

Don't think that's possible with tri-band.

THe most IMPORTANT ROUTER spec IS NOT WIFI BANDWIDTH in Modern home setup


Said many times.

1. Signal Strenght
2. Concurrency Handling
3. Beamforming
4. Anti Inteference (in crowded wifi area)

Where is the setting to enable MLO? "Smart Connect"?

I bought a pair too. Using 6Hz backhaul because I hate the idea of the router randomly assigning bands to my non-BE devices (which was all of them). And I am just getting OK 6GHz backhaul signal strength. With my 1GBps internet bandwidth, I am getting around 8xxMbps. Which isn't bad.

My issue is, heat seems to degrade the performance. And BQ16 runs hot if you place it in a room without running ceiling fan/aircond.
