Thank you very much, looking into both, leaning towards the 58u. Seems the 58u was discontinued :)

Thank you, I'll look into them.

Thanks. My daughter received a new Iphone at her moms, so not sure if that's wifi 7 or not, will confirm with her. I checked into the BE58 and found it at Amazon for $80. I was going to purchase it until I read the reviews. Seems the software is currently a bit buggy and if the router loses...

In my previous post, I was inquiring about using the older router as a repeater. Here, I'm looking for suggestions for whatever new hardware will work best with the new BE88U to extend the coverage fully in the 2nd floor. Since this is the BE forum, I'm hoping others have used some specific...

Hi, I upgraded our wi-fi recently and installed an RT-BE88U. Definitely happy with the new hardware, but I do have a dead spot in my daughter's room that I would like to get coverage to. Originally, I tried using the older N66U to extend, but the results were not great. The BE88U is in the...

Thanks for your time and help. We tested both the 2.4 and 5Ghz and the best we were able to achieve was a 22 down using the 66u when set as a repeater. We spent another hour adjusting the antennas on the 88U and we were able to get anywhere from a 100mb to 660mb down, depending on which...

She's going on 17 and I have full trust in her, so no issues with privacy and she prefers to be hanging out downstairs with me during the day. The only time this is an issue is when she's tired and heading to bed and may want to watch a video or listen to some music as she dozes off. And no...

HI, So what I did was log into the 66U and changed the 5GHz SSID to a unique name which is being broadcast and I see available on my devices. I'll use this SSID for testing connectivity via my daughter's laptop (she's not feeling well and resting, so don't want to bother her yet). But this...

The network map does show the N66U at 216, so you're correct. My daughter is using a 3ish year old MS Edge gaming laptop, not sure of the specs. The routers are probably no more than 40' apart, but several walls in-between them. The N66U is in my daughter's bedroom approximately 10' away from...

Thanks. I'll take a look into them. Was hoping the N66u would be enough to get her by on the weekends she's with me.

The N66U is in her bedroom, 10' from where she uses her laptop. That's what's confusing me... I powered the N66U off and she still had the same speeds, so I can't tell if she's connecting to the N66U or not. Tried disconnecting from the network, etc. The BE88U shows the N66U in the network map...

Hi, Hoping to get some advice on the proper way to extend the range on a wireless network using a BE88U and N66U. So I finally upgraded my very out of date network and using the BE88U, I get excellent coverage in our home, other than my daughter's bedroom. I added the N66U to the network in...
