    Enabling link aggregation with Ubiquiti Edgeswitch

    I have an XT9 acting as my mesh router with two XT6 nodes hardwired. It all feeds through a Ubiquiti Edgeswitch lite 24 port switch. I'm trying to enable link aggregation with my XT9 and its not working. On the switch interface I just click the two ports, click aggregate and confirm a LAG. It...

    Mikrotik HAP AC2 + AP or Asus ZenWiFi XT8

    I've had a Mikrotik HAP AC2 doing routing and wireless access for a while. The poor wifi range led me to look for a mesh solution and I ended up with a pair of Asus ZenWiFi XT8s. While installing them, I found that even without any nodes I was getting much better wifi performance from the Asus...

    WiFi 6 was not worth it for me ~ Journey of WiFi 6 AiMesh back to WiFi 5 UniFi ~

    Who is this for? I've written this to share my personal experience to those who believe WiFi 6 is the best one can get right now. Yet, your experience is not quite as impressive as you expected. Perhaps, debating WiFi 5 vs. WiFi 6 because of different reviews. This is one technophilic person's...

    What router/mesh for a big house in 2020

    Hello people, I recently got an Asus RT-AC88U on sale. The problem, however, is it's unstable. The stock firmware was unstable, leading that the wireless connection would just disconnect for no reason at all. I live in a big house, however, It's a bit old(but renovated). I game quite a lot...

    router for home network update

    It is finally time to updgrade my old Draytek 2130 wired router. It served admirably for nearly 10 years, and can maintain 700Mbit hardware NAT throughput to WAN on my 1Gb Comcast internet, but it is showing it's age with slow VPN encryption and old VPN security standards. And I guess my new...

    Hello, I live in a 3-story 3,000 sq ft house. I’ve been using Netgear R7000 (freshTomato firmware) located more or less centrally.

    Accessing multiple VLANS through a router

    Hi all, fairly new to networking, at least at the routing level. My network is actually in a theater, but still pretty small: three switches, two at FOH and one in the orchestra pit. There are two VLANs that I currently need frequent access to, VLANs 20 and 30, and I thought if I trunked those...

    I was looking for new border gateway equipment to handle an ISP change that could handle 1 Gb service and picked up the Ubiquiti Networks EdgeMAX EdgeRouter 4 last week from B&H for 200 with free next day shipping. UBNT was out of stock and Amazon sellers were price gouging. I also picked up...

    AP/Router for my standalone router in a small house?

    Quick personal history: I've been burned too many times with wireless products where wireless inexplicably stops working. Between that and being a bit old school, I have a lot of my devices wired with ethernet. Once we started owning smart phones, I broke down and bought a Netgear WNDR3700 for...
