If neither "tactical" or "military grade mesh protected" refers to robustness, what exactly am I looking for if I want a cable that is close to BNC HD-SDI cable in strength, and can be "pulled" or moved around without damaging it?

Which specs am I looking at exactly? The cable on my buying list doesn't mention much. Can you explain this? The transceivers I am looking at doesn't mention that it can be tuned. Could you elaborate? The cable I linked to mentions both "tactical" and "military grade mesh protected". Does...

The website just says "Length: up to 10km". The next strongest transceiver says "up to 300m". So I'm guessing that I have picked the right reciever for the job which is more than 300m and less than 10km. Is see nanometers on the transceiver specs which is 1310nm. You mentioned that nanometers...

You can be too hot on a short run which is something you need to check unlike copper. Single mode can do 100 miles. So in the case above, the transceiver is rated for 10 kilometres, does that mean that it will be too hot on the cable length I need which is 1500 meters? Are those the two...

If I want to create a 10 GbE connection between two workstations that are 1500 meter apart, would this work? Or am I missing parts? 2 x 10GbE network cards 2 x SFP+ Transceivers 1 x 1500 meter of tactical single mode fiber optic cable reel Price without fiber cable 200 USD.

Have just checked and both Multi-User Mimo and IGMP Snooping is disabled.

MU-MIMO Default settings. I believe it is enabled in Merlin firmware RT-AC5300_380.65_2, but I will check later today and test it on / off. IGMP Snooping Default settings. Let me check later today. Channels and bandwidth are set to auto. It picks 80 MHz by default in the area that we tested...

I have now done some testing with 24 Samsung Galaxy S7 (802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, dual-band) devices. All devices were spread in a range between 8 - 14 meters from the router. 12 were connected 5 GHz radio #1. 12 were connected 5 GHz radio #2. WiFi Explorer reported up to 79 % utilization on 5 GHz...

keep adding clients until things start going south... There is no monitoring software that can help analyze channel utilization? And no readings in the router itself? just find another clean channel and add a new AP... Can you recommend an AP for live video streaming?

Thanks everyone. sfx2000 and drabisan, you both mention airtime / channel utilization. How do I best monitor airtime utilization on the RT-AC5300 while adding Android devices one at a time? Let's say that I hit a limit at 12 clients (as suggested by drabisan's findings), would adding four or...

They are Samsung Galaxy S7, so yes, they should support ac: Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, dual-band, Wi-Fi Direct, hotspot

I am working on a project where 10-50 Android smartphones are going to connect to a ASUS RT-AC5300 and live stream video from a server also connected to the router. The bitrate per phone is 6 Mbps. 50 x 6 Mbps = 300 Mbps The room is 150 m2 - full line of sight Is there a tool that can help us...

Thanks a lot. So WWAN is the technical name of what I'm seeking? None of the more popular routers from the mainstream brands have this feature? Draytek and Craddlepoint are not really sold here in Denmark.

Does any of the greatest routers support USB-modem sharing? Which would you recommend?

Anyone knows if it possible to make these routers share my 3G USB-modem connection over WIFI? If not with stock firmware, then with 3rd-party firmware?
