    Should I upgrade from WiFi 6, to at least 6e, at this point?

    Hey all, been a while since I've posted a question here. I've been using an Asus RT-AX86U for the past few years. While there is nothing wrong with this router, and everything is working. For future compatibility, would it be ideal to upgrade from this WiFi 6 router to at least 6e? I did...

    Solved Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra Doesn't Detect 6Ghz Band on Wifi Router

    Hi all, Got my hands on the S24 Ultra and found out that it can't detect nor connect to the 6Ghz band on my Asus RT-BE96U. It can detect my 5Ghz and 2.4Ghz bands as Wifi 7-capable (They've both got the little Wifi 7 icon showing in Available Networks) but once I connect to either band, the...

    Are there any features to limit the choice of WiFi channels?

    I am facing the problem because my router is bought from the US and the Macbook Pro's WiFi country code is HK. And the WiFi 6E is not available in HK for full frequency band ranging from 5.925 GHz to 7.125 GHz. We are only available to use 5.925 – 6.425 GHz. Due to this reason, I have to...

    Looking for help finding a 2230 m.2 wifi module that support WIFI 6e that is actually usable. I was very hyped to jump into 6 GHz bands, got myself ASUS AXE16000 and was really bummed to realize that total of single device that I own can connect there reliably, which is my mobile phone. Long...

    Dumping my NetGear RBKE963 6E Mesh -- AP Alternatives with Wireless Backhaul?

    After struggling with connectivity issues requiring weekly reboots of my RBK963, I've given up. This 6/6E solution is hot garbage, and the only way I've been able to get any semblance of stability is to replace its routing/DNS/DHCP functionality with an OPNSense-based firewall and a Pihole and...

    Asus AxE 11000 router + Asus Ax11000 AI mesh issues

    The AXE model is attempting to use 6GH and 160Hz within 2.4/5GH however the Ax11000 doesn't have 6GH option. How do I configure the AXE to support the limitations of the older router? I could make the older router as the primary, and new router as AI mesh access point, however this will then...

    Recommendations to get a WiFi 6E chipset dev board

    Hi All, I'm looking to get a WiFi 6E chipset development board. I have an idea and would like to get a prototype up and running to see if it's technically feasible. Any ideas on how I can get my hands on a development board? The chipset manufacturer (Qualcomm, Intel, Broadcom, ...) doesn't...

    ASUS ET8 Roaming Assistant Disconnecting 2 nodes from each other (possible fix)

    This is a tip post as I was noticing my 2 ET8 AiMesh nodes would disconnect randomly from each other. Hope this helps others or comment if it did/you have any tips! I have a setup of 2 ET8 notes and I would notice occasionally I would have the non-router node upstairs disconnecting. In the...

    Wifi is weak and unreliable. Want to step up to WiFi 6e

    Hello all. Moved into a older house about a year ago. My ISP provided me with an Arris DG3450A gateway device and from there I have 3 pods (Plumes) that plug into wall outlets and that creates my mesh network. The signals are not stong and we struggle with wifi in most areas of the house...

    No high end Asus routers released in a year!?

    Why haven't Asus released any high end¹ routers since last autumn or so? The semiconductor problems? Are there any known upcoming devices? ¹ I'm referring to something that checks most of these boxes * WiFi 6e * 10 Gbps Ethernet * AX11000 * USB 3.2 (USB-C?) * 3x3 * WPA3 * Expensive :cool:

    For those of you wondering whether you need 6 GHz antennas

    I came across this blog post that should make you feel better. https://firasshaari.com/2021/03/17/dual-band-ant-performance-in-the-6ghz-band/ Bottom line is that found for the tested set of dual-band dipoles, performance was about the same as for 5 GHz up to 6.778 GHz (~ Wi-Fi 6E channel 165)...

    Alright guys. I got wifi 6E working right now. Fully stable and fast. I believe the progress could be a little bit tricky since I did not expect it to work like this lol. But it works and I have pictures below. My GT-AXE11000 came today, however, like the others, I could not connect to 6ghz band...
