I have a v1.0 GC-Wifi7 card already so the qualcomm variant is guaranteed. What I'm considering is whether this is currently the best possible card I can have, or whether I could find a better one for my main PC and donate the one I already have to my mom's PC.
What would be the very best adapter I can get if cost is no issue and the only restriction being that it can't be using the intel be200 chipset given than my motherboard is AMD? I'm especially concerned with quality and stability. I don't want to deal with any kind of heating issues...
Latency is there with or without MLO for me. Separating each band into its own network seems to be better but it's still not wholly ideal. I also don't see any reason why things should not be better with smartconnect and/or MLO.
Edit: Other than that the drivers are just still kinda crap ofc
I'm seeing some issues related to wifi and I'm not sure what could be wrong. I'm currently on the latest stock firmware from Asus (3.0.0.6.102_37031) and basically things will look fine but latency will spike tremendously on wifi randomly and sometimes for more than just a second or two. I think...
Can someone remind me if I can save my settings on stock firmware on my GT-BE98 Pro flash merlin and then restore the settings? Or do I need to manually set everything back up after flashing merlin? Been literally like 5 years or something since I last freshly installed merlin
On the bright side, at least you know the hardware combo should work 😅
Probably obvious but I'm assuming you turned on mlo for your main network and are connecting to that right? All I did after initial setup was turn on MLO and let it "optimize" the network for MLO or whatever the wording...
Large file transfer did not reconnect to an extra band. I saw "Idle Power Down Restriction" was enabled in hardware settings for the adapter. But I can't tell if this should be enabled to turn off power saving... It's kinda weirdly named and there's no description. Does this mean that enabling...
I'm wondering if anyone has experienced this issue with MLO. Basically, here's my network details for my connection:
You can see that for some reason, I'm connected to only 1 band (the 5Ghz band no less...) despite being connected to an MLO network. I took this screenshot as I write this. Now...
Wait, no offense or anything but... how is this Asus' fault? It's not like we haven't known about these routers for months... and wifi 7 in general for like what 2 years now?
