4:25, that's megabytes bro. Make it clear cause some folks are confused about bits and bytes. Nice vid

[lancerose]

Great video - picked this one up yesterday. Seems to function nicely. Two questions. 1) This is close to 1 year old, do you still recommend or do you like another router better? 2) Concerning the the AX3000, what wifi extender do you recommend? Thanks so much in advance. Lance

[philippezevenberg]

can you connect a wifi 6 router to a wifi 5 router with a cable?

[SethGamingLegion]

Awesome video, you made my buying choice so easy, and got it 2 days ago :-) what software app did you use on your phone to test the wifi signal strength?

[CooderBrown]

Hi, do you know if this router can be used as a node on my mesh network?

[joeglennaz]

Great video but you definitely need a microphone. Lapel mic would be great. They’re very cheap. You can get a wired one for about $15 on Amazon.

Thanks for the tips 💯 happy holidays 🎄

[huey]

Thank you for the review! Do you think there is any difference between the various brands that make wifi6 routers???

[saeedhossain]

I'm running the ac1900, it had overheating issues, took the plastic off and it's much more stable

[pumpskinfolk]

4:37 be careful bruh, i heard Wu-Tang Lan ain't nothing to F with 😁

Does this router have the ability to create a single SSID (both 2.4 & 5 combined)? Looking to upgrade from my Google OnHub Router which is starting to become obsolete. That's what I like about that router. Thanks in advance!

I bought a wifi 6E card and a wifi 5 card that came with the proprietary vertical mount for with wifi m.2 slot on my Asus board. When swapping cards the shoddy soldering on the antenna mounts of the shoddy Amazon 6E card broke off. Wifi 5 it is then.

Hey, regarding 1gb speeds yes, it can get quite close on Wi-Fi 500-800+mb which varies based in time of day and ISP traffic levels. On Ethernet is can get 950+ again depending on the ISP traffic levels.

[jaycantrell]

I may have missed it or misunderstood, but did you test a Wifi 5 device connected to a WiFi 6 router vs a WiFi 5 router? Does it improve connection range or anything speed wise?

[robertfarrer]

I just got one question, WHAT DOES “ LIMITED CONNECTION”???

[nicholasgrieco]

i dont know if its my computer or if im deaf from all of the concerts ive been to but its hard to hear you

[flowriderroz]

what if your phone doesn't support wifi 6? do speeds still go up?

[alancapati]

Very nice review. is it normal that my wifi 5 device still gets the same speed results when i used a wifi 6 router? I bought a tp link ax23 router thinking my wifi will add a small amount of speed even though i have a wifi 5 device. My isp speed is 50mbps. When i checked the wifi signal strength for 5g. It is the same 433mbps using a wifi 5 router and a wifi 6 router

[JamesAutoDude]

Seems like speeds are close to the same but the distance is different

[incubus_the_man]

You should upgrade your CAT 5 Ethernet cable to CAT 6 if you haven't already.
