Network Noob Overhauls Home Wi-Fi!

Our current home Wi-Fi solution is... weak to say the least! Signal degradation through walls is quite high, affecting upload and download speeds at various corners of the house. The Reyee RG-E6, however, appears to be an affordable solution! Let's check it out!

Really enjoy that Greg is just a normal guy with normal problems and is willing to take the risks and share the rewards with us.

That wi-fi speed is something I need in my kitchen to watch youtube while I am eating breakfast.

That thing looks like a power rangers enemy

Glad to hear I'm not the only one that can be clueless about networking. I know enough to set it up and get it working but adding extenders and trying to optimize them can be a challenge and I get terrified I'll end up with no Wi- FI which has happened.

I totally know what you are going through. I am month 10 into renovating our current house. As I type this, a new garage door system is being installed. Just focus on the feeling you'll have when you're all settled in, and it's done.

I haven’t used a conventional router in many many years. Only use orbi mesh Wi-Fi systems since 2016 and will probably never go back. They work so incredibly well and I never not have Wi-Fi at max speeds that I pay for on my property.

Congratulations on your new home Greg! Thank you for the content you've shared to us, they come helpful more than I've thought I've needed!

Upload of 12mbps is good if your like me and live and rural area where no cable or DSL net. I went with Tmobile and I get 250mbps down and 5mbps up at $50m where a PTP ISP was only giving me 10mbps for like $110 month.

Wow, how timely this video is as I'm also doing research on overhauling my wifi network!

[jamespressey]

10 Billion? so there is a number. You would sell out. 🤣. Great Video. Love the content.

I have a TP-Link AX6000 and it works well but my main reason for getting it was 8 ethernet ports.
I have now added the XE75 Pro mesh system and it absolutely demolishes the router.
I only have a typical 3 bed rental in the UK but I have full signal and speed (gigabit fibre) around the house and even down the road. I also live in a fairly built-up street with a lot of houses around.
Mesh is the way to go if you need Wi-Fi everywhere easily.

That is a good deal. I spent $500 on my NETGEAR Nighthawk RAXE500. I needed something for long-range to run my security cameras and was using an older Asus router that would barely reach outside. Now it works great and reaches farther than I need. Amazing how much difference they can make. Also helped when streaming inside the house too. My old router would cause buffer issues when streaming and now it rarely ever has a issue. Another Awesome video!!

Here in South Africa we also battle with internet, if you aint on fibre. Nice video.

It's a weird coincidence that you should mention integrity. My wife and I have been discussing such to day given the prevalence of scammers and liars out there today. I was just thinking as I clicked on the notification for the video how your refreshing honesty has meant I've stuck with you and enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work 👍

[MrBeanercop]

Been looking into a new router with range and great gaming reviews. No hesitation on pulling the trigger on this. Thanks for the code as well :)

[GoldnMonty]

Your notch just went up in my book my guy with that TRX in the driveway.

[lucianocasillas]

get out of my head!!! I'm in the process of making changes our home's WiFi network. This is one I hadn't come across yet. I will do more research. Thanks again for the breakdown.

I used a Synology NAS and setup LAN Aggregation to try to maximize throughput, but recently they updated the OS on the NAS to support SMB 3 Multichannel which basically does the same thing with no special setup required. Really nice to see that the router supports and promotes it right on the unit, it's a good sign that they're power-user friendly.

[DragonEye]

That TRX in the driveway is such a massive win! Lol definitely a little jealous
