IDK if you saw my posts comparing the 6000 to the 16000. Very interesting results. Still unsure why the 6000 was better. So easy to see the differences with the graphs.
Edit: Oh and I forgot I tested with a USB 2.5Gig thing on my PC. Then I bought a 5Gig PCIe card for that PC.
At one point, I...
PC has a 5G port.
Edit. I don't That AXE16000 anymore. I have a GT-AX6000. This always had better nternet speeds than the 16000.
I went back and forth a quite few times. 6000 was always clearly better.
I didn't know that test was there :D
Never used the ROG until I got a GT-6000 and a AXE 16K. Not interested in some marketing bs like game acceleration. Never clicked that tab.
It does speed tests automatically? I see results in my history from Feb 28 and March 5 on this 16K. I never tested...
I find fast.com works better for me if set like this with 30 connections and duration of 50 seconds.
The first two test in the Networx graph are fast.com. During that second test, it said my upload was 270Mbps. It was 370.
The last test is speed test.net. I wish speed test would allow more...
Decided to get the AXE16000 another shot with the new 5Gb lan card an the NEW 3006 firmware 👏
I gave a day to settle in before any testing. Much better now. Still a C hair slower than the GT6000. That is a non issue now. At least there are no sub 1Gps speeds at all like I was get with the...
Thanks. I know I can change the WAN port on the 16000 to either 10G ports or the 2.5G.
If I use a 10G port as WAN, can I connect a PC to the 2.5 port? I am pretty sure I can.
Big internet outage today. Using my Pixel phone to USB tether to the 6000. Works great!
Can I use this on the AXE16000 for testing speeds?
Like set WAN the USB and test with 10G port out. Or the 2.5G port out?
Not sure if you can set that USB device as a LAN output port.
This is just for fun. I plan on using the GT6000 for a while. I can't do this for a day or two.
This is it...
Did a couple of unscientific speed test again between the 16000 and 6000 with the newly installed 5Gb network card. Previous tests were with a 2.5Gb USB device.
A couple of notable points. The 16000 did not get sub 1Gbs like in the other test with the USB. The the 5 download speeds from...
I actually did buy a 10 Gb network for 39 from Amazon.

I even tried to install it. But oops that won't fit in an X1 slot . So the cheapest X1 10 Gb was $90 I passed on that.
I have a 2.5Gb switch connected to the AX6000. My PC connect is connected to that switch. This 2.5Gb switch connects to a 1Gb switch with 5 devices connected. I luv wired connections.
That USB 2.5G device performed really well. There is no perceptible difference with the nic.
I only got the...
