Close to ATL for this router
Probably the cheapest Wifi 7 router with 6GHz MLO support, goes up to 750mbps Wireguard speed on mine. CPU is Qualcomm IPQ9574 Quad Core @ 2.2GHz w/ 1GB RAM
CamelCamelCamel.
Tplink/mercurysys are pretty established by this point.
And thats a fairly beefy cpu and ram for a typical home user.
Antenna gain is pretty decent… Full 2.5GbE Ethernet…
And should have good odds of openwrt support in the future.
What specifically don't you like?
Can anyone give feedback on range?
2.4GHz / 5GHz are good but 6GHz falls off very quickly if you're any further than the next room or two over
I have one downstairs in a two-storey home and I get 920mbps when in the same room or next room, directly above upstairs and falls off to 550mbps moving further away
6 Ghz is perfect for apartment buildings where 2.4/5Ghz frequencies are crowded.
How does this compare to GL.iNet Flint 2 (GL-MT6000) deal here https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/914979?
that doesn't support WiFi 7 at all
You really have to have a need for WiFi 7. Do you have a lot of Wifi 7 devices to take advantage of it. As has been said 6Ghz has its limitations as cannot travel that far.
I have two of them from ATL deal running in mesh, no issues at all. I have 1Gbps NBN and it is rock solid.
can you get 1gb from the mesh node?
Once I did Iperf3 between two nodes in two routers, one was 2.5GbE (mesh node connected) and the other one was 1 GbE, I maxed it out with multiple connections. Given that, internet speeds vary, which could be due to time and Vocus. This is what I got from the mesh node now: https://www.speedtest.net/result/17959498132.png
Note Amazon won't ship this to regional postcodes, it'll fallback to the $209 third-party sellers (still shipped by Amazon)
