New Around Here
Hi, first of all, thanks for letting me join here. Boy I am so glad I found this group. For the past week I have been researching to upgrade my home network and of course sifting through all the marketing and youtubing stuff is time consuming. Was I happy to read Tim's and L&LDs articles based on some facts - I like facts, although I am obviously no computer scientist, nor electrical engineer.... so far to my intro.
Firstly, waying the pros and cons I came pretty much to the conclusion that the AX88U is not a bad deal for my ca. 250qm area to cover. I generally like proven technology and even considered going with AC instead of AX, but the difference is only about 60bucks between the AC88 and the AX. So I thought, why not chance it with the AX. Please let me know if I am wrong here.
Secondly, I would love to make better use of the Link Aggregation 802.ad (I believe) of my 918+ NAS (Yes I know it is is not 2 GBits) and the AX88 (and the AC88) are advertised to support this. Can anyone share their experience, if this is indeed the case? Alternatively I considered getting one of those smart switches eg. Zyxel GS1900-8, but I rather have less equipment to take care off.
If I missed an article, which I should have read, I apologize, please then kindly point me in the right direction.
Thx a lot.
