      FYI cheaper elsewhere = neg

  • Would any one recommend the Wi-Fi 7 Router
    Thanks

  • Literally losing my mind at my wifi ipcameras with static IP always losing connection. Hoping this wifi7 will help, logically it won't.

    If anyone can recommend a good mesh system that can handle IP cameras for a nvr it would be amazing.

    • I use Asus mesh, set up static ip for everything and never loses nodes. Super stable and fast enough

      • Thanks mate can you share which one you have.

        Also I'm not losing notes it's more so the IP cameras seem to drop out with my nvr.
        Logging in through their respective apps works. 3.g tapo

        • If the app works then they are still connected, so may not be a network issue?
          I use two old RT-AX56U in wifi mesh (so connected together via wifi not cable). It's the best set of routers I've had. Penetration is great, speed across two walls is still >250Mbs
          Anything that is more speed sensitive I connect with cable (desktop -> nas)

      No, it wouldn't because the cameras would need to be WiFi 7 Compatible, which is unlikely. Not too many devices are WiFi 7 compatible yet.

      Most likely WiFi Signal issue. So make sure you have good strong WiFi outside. I had the same issue with my WiFi Doorbell. I had 1 AP for the entire house, Doorbell was dropping out. I moved it and put another AP in, 0 issues after that.

      • Yes you are correct.
        I had a tenda mesh system before and the Wi-Fi signal was solid, however the camera's kept dropping out continuously.

        So I got rid of it and I am just using one modem router now. So the cameras drop out less but they are still dropping out.

        so can anyone recommend a MESH System that I can use with Wi-Fi IP cameras.

        • Pretty much any mesh will do, but it's more probably about placement and the number of nodes (which will depend on the size of the home and location of the cameras).

          A better solution could be putting a dedicated Outdoor AP.

          • @geekcohen: Had 6 nodes 🙃

            • @Lingnoi: Okay, great. But was the outside WiFi coverage still good and strong?

              • @geekcohen: The Wi-Fi coverage was amazing.
                But somewhere between the camera the secondary/ first node and the primary node where the nvr was connected by ethernet; something was happening with the stability of the connection/signal. And I only say this as the nvr stated that the connection had been lost from that specific IP address.
                Work mentioning that the IP cameras that were connected to the primary node didn't have any connection issues.

                • @Lingnoi: Okay, interesting.

                  This is why I dislike WiFi Cameras and mesh solutions. I would suggest looking at getting some Wired APs put in for better performance and reliability.

                  • @geekcohen: Yeah I wired 8 myself but then I upgraded to a 16 channel nvr and got lazy.

                    • -2

                      @Lingnoi: and look what laziness got you….. unreliable security cameras.

                    • @Lingnoi: One more thought: I needed to pin some nodes to specific mesh nodes because during handover they may lose signal.
                      Have you pinned as well as static ip?

      The number 1 cause of dropped IoT devices I see (and I handle a lot of the bastards….) is their inability to channel hop reliably, and also the inability to recognise AX vs AC protocols; luckily we don't need either of those features (yet they're used by default)

      Don't try and mesh until you've exhausted all other reliable tweaks; you're just asking for issues if there's any existing wifi congestion in the area.

      The first 4 things to check would be:

      1. Make sure your 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz are broadcasting as two separate signals; we don't want accidental 'handovers' (You want to be on 2.4Ghz for cameras).

      2. Set your 2.4Ghz mode to 'N Only' - It's old enough that it's supported by everything, and forces M.I.M.O. to be enabled.

      3. Use WiFi Analyzer on your phone, and make sure you're on the least busy of channels 1, 6, or 11. You can use others, but ANY overlap means your wireless devices have to share the airspace and wait to send their packets. So just because channel 2 is "empty", it overlaps 1 and 3 so in use, it's not empty. WiFi Analyzer makes it very visual, find the channel with the least semi-circles cutting into it.

      4. Forcibly narrow your channel width to 20Mhz explicitly. Your signal will overlap less other channels, and you'll notably increase your range; and Wireless N @20Mhz allows 72.2 Mbps per client, which will be easily enough for your cameras.

      My professional advice;
      Even if you have gigabit internet or something 'modern and fast' a notably slower wifi connection, with zero congestion, short preamble, and no need to re-negotiate speed, will feel instantaneous - Humans notice latency, not peak transfer speed. Also IoT devices are dumb and we need to hold their hands :p

    I got two Xiaomi BE5000 routers from Aliexpress for less than $50 each after cashback and shopping credit and they work well.

    • How did they go - I've got Redmi Ax6000 running in mesh and they are bullet proof. The ui being in Chinese is not an issue with Google translate doing an awesome job. I've been looking at 2 x BE6500 to replace but will wait and see how these go with the speed bumps on nbn (for me 100->500mbps)

      • Set it up yesterday. It was a bit more challenging than it needed to be because of Chinese interface and the app wouldn't let me add the routers due to the region being different. Don't know exactly what I did differently, but I did manage to add them to the app later on.
        Other than the above hiccup, it's working well.

        • I never used the app only the Web to setup. I think the region needs to be China now but I didn't have that restriction on the AX6000

  • can you please share the link of that router ?? because I can't see any $50 range BE5000 routers ???
