    Asus vs Unifi vs ?

    A bit of misunderstanding here. I really need and like the 2 x 5GHz bands with single SSID, the devices can freely choose the lower or higher channels. The problem is that on latest firmware Asus does not allow anymore to use a joint SSID for both 5GHz bands. But allows a single SSID in triband...

    New WIFI sytem for 240 m2 house

    Excellent point about the very different WiFi regulations in the US and EU. Most youtube reviews don't specify which country they are in, so the outcome of a purchase based on a US review may be very different in the EU than expected.

    Release ASUS ZenWiFi XT8 Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388_24753 (2025/08/04)

    The reset is also generating an .crt file which doesn't work on Mac Safari. XT9 experience.

    Asus vs Unifi vs ?

    "I don't know why you have 2x 5GHz radios enabled when the units are wired." Simple, some devices connect to lower 5GHz channels, some to higher (above 100) channels. The devices are free to chose which band will connect as joint SSID is used, and it is working fine. As Asus removed this...

    Release ASUS ZenWiFi BQ16 Firmware version 3.0.0.6.102_36998

    Tired of you. If you would start with a question and not with a statement even 'Not quite sure…' would be nice.

    Release ASUS ZenWiFi BQ16 Firmware version 3.0.0.6.102_36998

    Sim I wonder how many people here must have an opinion actually don't knowing the facts. Not possible to upload a setting file, when a single SSID was configured for both 5 or both 6 GHZ bands as the new firmware not allowing single SSID only when used in triband (with 2.4 band)

    Release ASUS ZenWiFi BQ16 Firmware version 3.0.0.6.102_36998

    I spent 4+ hours to revert the firmware to previous version and the decision was immediate - selling the Asus kit!

    Asus vs Unifi vs ?

    Sorry for stepping in, can I ask a question about the UDR7 please? How relevant for performance is the difference of 4 MU-MIMO streams? XT9 (2x2 + 4x4) and UDR 7 (2x2) in 5GHz band. I am considering the combination UDR7 + 2 x Express 7 (Cat5E wired), because Asus messed up the latest firmware...

    Release ASUS ZenWiFi BQ16 Firmware version 3.0.0.6.102_36998

    The "features" are the same. Reported also from other router model users.

    Release ASUS ZenWiFi BQ16 Firmware version 3.0.0.6.102_36998

    I have already mentioned this elsewhere, the new firmware has several new "features". For example, it does not allow two streams in the same band to have the same SSID, and it has added login exclusive via HTTPS, but the strange certificate they push does not work, at least on Mac. I spent 4...

    Solved BE98 pro and weird issue with WiFi settings (FW 102.5)

    The team at Asus have done an incredible job! Seems that many other models are also affected. After updating the XT9 mesh to the latest firmware (3.0.0.4.388_24753) version, it is no longer possible to set a single SSID for the 5-1 and 5-2 bands. ASUS allows you to set a shared SSID only for the...
