    Advice on new router choice to replace Asus set up...

    I don't have any ethernet cables for the APs, Aimesh is via wireless backhaul currently.. Rented house, even decorating is a lengthy process to get accepted let alone running cables about the place lol

    Advice on new router choice to replace Asus set up...

    I'm not bothered by pretty, it's the other half moaning the GT is big and ugly, to the point it's been shoved into a cupboard lol I'm not fussed about Google privacy either, I don't do anything online I need to hide, phones track us every thought we have anyway, I'm sure now I've typed Google...

    FS: Asus GT-AX11000 & XT8 Nodes UK

    UK customers only. My Asus GT-AX11000 router, and 2 black XT8 routers I ran as Aimesh nodes, all still in factory warranty period. Don't have the boxes though, life's too short to keep packaging! Lol. Will post via courier well packaged up. £400

    Advice on new router choice to replace Asus set up...

    What would you do? Stick with Asus set up, go Synology or Google wifi pro? Being in the UK we can only get Virgin 1Gb/100mb connection anyway and it's unlikely to change in the next 5 years at least...

    Diagnosing slow internet speed issues..

    It's all devices wired or wireless, and everything works just has a big delay in responding. I don't have any devices with ethernet, laptop would need a usb3 to ethernet adaptor... Currently the router handles DNS, my ISP supplied but also using 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 I'm gonna try using the...
