Decided to get two linksys ea9300, half price, and two refurbed re7000--half price of retail on amazon prime day. Cost was a primary driver with seamless roaming via wired APs. Setup one ea9300 as primary, other ea9300 in bridge mode, re7000 setup as wired access points with 802.11r enabled...

Got two of these ea9300 and going to see how well they do seamless roaming. One primary and other access point.

Probably will just configure routers as APs. But key is what routerAPs will best compliment the main router? Same brand? Which models?

Thanks for the feedback. Want the APs to have at least three available gige ports for local devices. On the linksys 9300 the dual wan capability is part of a firmware upgrade coming. Right now looking at linksys 9300, asus gt-5300 or nighthawk x10 or a6 routers. I feel the asus and x10 is...

Anyone know when it will ship?

Also looking at using linksys 9300 or 8300 models. Maybe 9300 primary and 8300 as access points?

I have a verizon fios router wifi MI424WR-GEN3I and linksys router configured as access point Linksys AC1900 Dual-Band Smart Wi-Fi Router (EA6900). The wifi devices that move range from iphone 6 to 7, ipad pro 10.5, ipad mini gen 4, 3 year old windows 10 fuji laptop, mac pros 2015. Other wifi...

I am looking to get better throughput. Get about 30 to 40 Mbps up and down on wireless--and with 150 service just not using it. But want a set of router/access points that work with seamless roaming as I move around the house. I mostly use wireless in three key rooms and each would have a...

Anyone use the GT-AC5300 with the RP-AC68u configured as access points--RP-AC68u hardwired back to the GT-AC5300? Curious how well the seamless roaming works. https://www.asus.com/us/Networking/RP-AC68U/specifications/

I wrote to Asus and they recommend ROG Rapture GT-AC5300. https://www.asus.com/us/Networking/ROG-Rapture-GT-AC5300/ And for the access points: https://www.asus.com/us/Networking/RP-AC68U/specifications/ Anyone with experience with the combination? The 5300 seems a bit overkill for my needs.

Does not have dual WAN feature. Also, the concern is this unit wants to use a wireless back haul vs a wired back haul to the main router. There is a lot of walls and interference from where I want to put the access points to where the main router needs to sit and fear that this hub spoke...

Need Recommendation for primary router and two access points. Current routers are four years old so time to upgrade. I have a large home wired with gigabit network. About 50 devices network with about 25 of those on wireless. I have 150Mbps up and down internet, and backup internet from...
