Running these analyses costs money. Buy through my links to help keep lights on! I may get a small commission.
First off, what's the speed your paying for? and Second, yes Wifi 7 is currently the best but you can get similar performance on Wifi 6E, Third you should not rely on Wifi for streaming, It's possible but there's alot of variables that can change how good your connection is, along with every device you want to use will have to support Wifi 7 and MLO which even today not alot of devices support currently. This is a matter of good latency not raw speed. Find any router with good QoS or AQM and Use an Ethernet connection if possible. Which will basically tune your network so your roommate can stream and you can download games at the same time with like 5-8ms of latency. I personally use a GT-AX11000 Pro which is an Wifi 6 Asus router that you can buy now for around $220 USD. I pay for 2000 mbps service and can get around 750 mbps over Wifi. And if you need more range just buy another aimesh compatible router and mesh them together, and bam. Of course this could be done by using other manufactures but this is the only system I've used for years and it's been performing great.
Asus GT AX11000 Pro with a few nodes on 1gb. I average 850+ wireless and 920 for wired.
Compatibility is not a factor as WiFI 7 clients will be interoperable. The main benefit, but which would take the product to a much higher price point, is the inclusion of a 6GHz band. With this noted, he is getting a considerable spec upgrade with a model like the AX11000 Pro as it has dual 5GHz band and 10G support u/Eat\_pepsi The AX11000 Pro is a big upgrade from what you already had You get an improved TX/RX config You get triband which is more favorable for mesh especially if you get another triband node as you will maintain two bands, including a 5GHz band Also one of the few unit offering improved 5GHz spectrum support - The GT-AX11000 Pro has been upgraded to support an expanded UNII 4 spectrum featuring a high-powered 160MHz channel on the 5GHz band. This increases the backhaul capacity of the mesh and improves signal efficiency for roaming and coverage. 10G LAN/WAN support and support for more advanced VLAN management Superior integrated cooling design for the high-performance quad-core SoC chipset You will still maintain the support for AiMesh and also can use the image setting function to bring over your settings and setup to the new uni,t assuming you create a backup More advanced options in the WRT firmware and ap,p especially if you care about gaming The overall throughput and performance for both models ( non mesh ) is already multigig but on avg he AX11000 Pro will be a few hundred Mbps faster on AVG. Hope this helps. Thanks for your support and consideration of ASUS.
I agree. I have a gt-ax-11000 pro. The parental controls are so much better than what I had with Linksys. I wish I would have switched 5 years earlier.
Outside of my very first Linksys from 25 years ago, my ASUS gt-ax11000 has been a breath of fresh air after a long line of disappointing Linksys follow up devices.
which model? I have a similar one. gt-ax11000pro
Rt ax11000pro here they are good and easy to work with for a consumer if you are a real nerd you will want ubiquity and the rest I prefer to game than play with settings.
