This is an easy way to effectivly add wifi capabilities to devices that are Ethernet only, like a CCTV NVR for example.

Optus and Aussie both use IPoE so you should be good to just plug and play

It's definitely worth getting the switch for the garage to make use of your Ethernet data points, every device using Ethernet gets a more…

If you're in a busy household with a fast internet connection it may well be worth it, otherwise probably not.

If you're not having issues with the Google mesh it's really not worth upgrading. I believe Google home automations are cloud based so you…

I guess for high traffic networks, some might consider it worth it to pay double for 50% more streams, especially if you have a fast…

X60 can handle 6 simultaneous streams while x50 can only handle 4, that's the number of devices it can route data to at any given moment,…

XE75 is WiFi 6E, if you can utilize it, the difference is not marginal, it's massive. 6E includes a new, 6Ghz frequency band that is much…

In many cases it's no better, if you live alone or with maybe 1 or 2 other people, you likely won't notice the difference, also if you have…

I'd say Nest will be much better than these but are they price comparable? Personally I'd go with a better Deco mesh system that's in the…

While this is true, no doubt, if you're using your Quest near the primary router you can lock it to that AP and remove any chance of adding…

I have a Ubiquiti network in my own home but I always recommend Deco to other people unless they have a specific need for higher end…

Yes, Express is a router with wifi 6 AP and controller all in one. You could then manage your router and APs from the same interface.
22/01/2024 - 21:02
Those are 2 technologies that [can] work together, they're different and not directly comparable.
05/01/2024 - 07:26
Wifi signal is different to internet speed and you need to determine which is the one you need to improve. Go to speed test dot net and run…

Haven't met anyone willing to pay the $3k for the Deco WiFi 7 3pk yet but I'll sure be jealous when I do.

5 port gigabit switch is 25 odd bucks, still cheap together.
22/10/2023 - 18:08
Yes, click the + in the top right of the app and then Add Deco Unit and you'll see a massive list of all the compatible Deco mesh units.
22/10/2023 - 18:06
These are for worksites, they can be set up without regard for where mains power is, if there's any at all.
14/10/2023 - 15:10
Never used them but if they fail its no big deal unless you can't afford to lose old footage.
07/09/2023 - 21:37
I wouldn't ever consider using the cables again unless they were in a place I could easily rip out and replace. They haven't failed yet but…

Don't want to rain on any parades but don't expect too much from Reolink ethernet cables, unlike their cameras they're very poor quality, I…

You're right that you shouldn't need to but since you do, you can use an email alias like SimpleLogin, all correspondence gets forwarded to…

Although I have no experience with Tenda, that's so bad it sounds like something is faulty. I've never had a performance drop like that…

If your connection is FTTN and you're using your ISP modem/router to connect your home phone then you can also just turn off the ISPs…
05/08/2023 - 04:25
The only point I'd add is that as there's various data points already installed, these will work better if they're connected via ethernet…

You can buy Ubiquiti gear if you want higher end equipment but this TP Link is not trash, if something else was the issue then higher end…

You really need to pinpoint where your bottleneck is, do you know that the WiFi is the issue and not your incoming connection?
