    What is the cost of 1gb plans in your country

    Here on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, I have C-Spire 1Gb up/down fiber for US dollars 60 per month for the first 12 months, then $85 per month thereafter. Just curious, but who is your provider in Saudi Arabia?

    ZenWiFi AX (XT8) LAN ports disconnection

    Yes, you can swap your nodes without any issues other than changing the name of the node (if you named them - some don't). Once their positions are swapped, the "new" node should automatically recognize the ethernet backhaul and prioritize accordingly.

    Issues with RT-AX92U running 388.2_2_0-gnuton1

    Yeah, I had upgraded to 388.2 as well, and same thing. Lots of crashes, nodes losing backhaul link and flashing blue, etc, etc... Reverted back to 386.7 and back to normal (well, MY normal - high memory and cpu utilization due to too many devices, and devices being dropped to free up...

    Just curious - which router are you using in your network?

    ZEN Wi-Fi XT8 Mesh is overwhelmed...Looking for advice

    😆! This reminds me of the fun I used to have creating broadcast shutdown alerts when emergency work was needed on the network. Fortunately, my State Department customers had a good sense of humor and would actually look forward to what would be in the next alert message! I'm actually looking...

    Ok bud, I'll quit bothering you 😁. I think I have enough info to go forward with. Once again, many thanks. I'll let you know how this turns out.

    ZEN Wi-Fi XT8 Mesh is overwhelmed...Looking for advice

    Thanks Tech9. Both posts with good info. I'll look into the units and their reviews. So no reservations about an all in one device? Thanks again! Almost forgot - any trade-offs by using the free software controller? Seems there would be, but this is a bit new to me.

    ZEN Wi-Fi XT8 Mesh is overwhelmed...Looking for advice

    Yep, I found that out about Cisco earlier this morning while perusing their product line. I'm definitely interested in what TP-Link / Omada has to offer. I seem to recall that they offer some routers with the SDN controller built in. Is there a downside to that, or is it better to buy both...

    Ok, thanks. I guess I didn't dig deep enough into them to discover that unfortunate fact. I'll check out the TP-Link stuff and other Cisco small business solutions.
