My present system -
Asus 86u with both 2.4 and 5g being used.
I have an opportunity to get the Asus Wifi 6e AXE11000 heavily discounted.
The catch is that I cannot replace the 86u but can connect the AXE11000 wirelessly.
Though I may not get the 6e advantage now (devices don't do 6e), I was curious if the following would have any advantage
over what the status quo is -
86u -----5g ax------>AXE11000 =====Ethernet cat7 to at least 2-3 devices (two 2.5g port and one 1gig port).
I know that years ago this type of arrangement worked well at the beginning of draft N for moving large files or streaming. The second router did the heavy lifting.
Any thoughts or experience in this type of set up?
Thanks in advance.
