    AX86U Pro errors started recently

    The current rating only needs to be greater than the router's need. The equipment will only draw as much current as is required. That "3 amps" is the maximum the supply is rated to deliver, but it is not used unless the attached hardware requires it.

    2026 Merlin Router Recommendation

    Yep. My "race for speed" is confined to Formula 1 racing. On my LAN range is harder to achieve than speed (house is 124 years old and has thick walls). I rarely use as much as 100 Mbps.

    Best range?

    But circuit technology continues to improve, so the signal the antennas receive might be better decoded by newer designs.

    Best range?

    Unknown. Do lead salts also block RF, or just metallic lead? Partial answer here.

    Best range?

    In recent a recent technical publication the AX86U Pro was been touted as having the best range of all routers tested by that company. The non-pro AX86 was given a similar honor before the Pro version was offered. In a 123-year-old house with thick walls this is important to me. Has anyone...
