    (AI)Mesh vs Access Point

    No doubt you can do that with an AP. But it does not have roaming control with you have an overlapping WiFi coverage of your Primary AP and your secondary AP. In my experience the client will stay with the primary AP even if it’s signal is a lot weaker even when it is near the secondary AP. This...

    AIMESH FIRMWARE UPDATES - MY PROBLEMS

    Can your ring cams use POE? It might be a better option to run them wired with a POE switch. RT-AC5300 does have intermittent WiFi issues every so often you need to Reboot the router becoz the WiFi stops working probably. It may be a memory leak issue on the WiFi code on the router as this...

    5Ghz vs 2.4Ghz

    This is where it is best to manually select the signal channels if the airspace is too crowded. If your neighbors’ WiFi signals are set on auto (most likely it is) you would be better if you scan to see which channels they are on and pick another unused channel.

    5Ghz vs 2.4Ghz

    In a perfect world that would exists. This is the reason why we are in this forum to achieve this seamless roaming without dropping connections when we move from one point to another. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    AiMesh - which second router? vs Competition?

    I am making an educated guess based on: 1) all the Aimesh capable routers advertisements and webpage makes no mention of Lyra or even list in the supported devices list Lyra. 2) Lyra has its own microsite that focus on various Lyra models. Lyra Trio, Lyra Mini and Lyra itself. 3) it does...

    AiMesh - which second router? vs Competition?

    Yes. But if it is just acting as a node. A lower model would also do. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    AiMesh - which second router? vs Competition?

    Let me be crystal clear. If you have already an AC5300 in use buying another AC5300 will work just fine. The Lyra is meant for people who are not bothered about having the best performance as the hardware specifications is lower than an AC5300; at present Lyra is meant to be deployed as a...

    AiMesh - which second router? vs Competition?

    Thank you for your clarifications. I have always wondered what is the key difference between repeater and an AP. Looks like if you intend to plug in a wired backhaul then use AP mode. (Next question is from the main router Ethernet cable where do you plug the cable into on the AP? Is it the WAN...

    AiMesh - which second router? vs Competition?

    WLAN is the correct term referring to wireless LAN. WAN = wide area network, that requires a modem to the ISP fiber network or cable. WLAN speeds gets lower as you go further away from the AP. N has a lower throughput but wider distance. AC has a higher throughput speed but typically half the...

    You do realize we are talking about wireless lan speed. N vs AC vs Gigabit Lan. Your clients on WiFi can’t get as fast a connection as fast as your wired connection. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    AiMesh - which second router? vs Competition?

    You don’t get it. I said DHCP is not supposed to function when you are in repeater mode but when you plug in a wired backhaul into the repeater there is a dhcp conflict my ac5300 ip sometimes gets taken over (192.168.1.1) and the modem goes offline. Look at the image again. There is no other...
