    Why is Total Simultaneous Throughput not tested anymore?

    It was dropped in Revision 10. Why? It is important for symmetrical 1000mbps users. @thiggins

    TCP throughput vs Http score

    What use case does each of them represent? For example, downloading large file(5GB) using http, bittorrent, Netflix.

    How to plot wifi performance between routers and APs?

    Same can be said for every routers too. If they all have same range and performance and designs and features then we don't need reviews. There are reasons why reviews AND charting tools exist.

    How to plot wifi performance between routers and APs?

    Is it possible to plot wifi performance between routers like AC86U and APs like UBNT AC Pro? From my understanding, their wifi are tested by same method. But I can't make them appear in the same graph. One is "testmethod=37" and the other is "testmethod=35". Because sometimes we want to use a...

    How does tx power affect wifi speed?

    Thanks! It is mentioned in one sentence in only revision 8. That's why I missed it.

    How does tx power affect wifi speed?

    Yes I think I have read more than a few dozens reviews fully by now, together with the various versions of testing methodology that most people might not bother reading. I enjoy reading the reviews. They are of excellent quality. But, I still miss how "Range" calculation is done. And I raised...

    How does tx power affect wifi speed?

    I am fully aware of the characteristics of the 2 bands. My question is how the "Range" calculation is done. Thanks.

    How does tx power affect wifi speed?

    Thanks for your reply. I have an unrelated question. What do 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz Range mean in Ranker? I can't find how it is computed in testing methodology.

    How does tx power affect wifi speed?

    AFAIK, attenuation is independent of tx power. But will changing tx power affect the Throughput vs Atten graphs? If yes, is there any article that studies the effects? If not, how does tx power change affect the speed, if the speed is dictated by the fixed attenuation between the router and my...

    RT-AC86U hit the FCC

    Luckily in China it's only 163 USD. Will buy after smallnetbuilder's review.

    Data discrepancy for retest of ASUS RT-AC68U

    https://www.smallnetbuilder.com/wireless/wireless-reviews/32325-ac1900-router-wireless-retest On the first page, retest of AC68U is on par with R7000 and EA6900 in terms of 2.4GHz uplink and downlink throughput vs atten, peaked at 120Mbps. (First image(Right) for downlink) On the second page...
