"The Ubiquity has awesome traffic stats right in the app. ... Most people have zero idea about their utilization….but the Ubiquity gives you all that in amazing detail and history….that even rivals commercial gear without all kinds of expensive management software."
"I love that I can access home assistant (and anything inside my LAN) through a wireguard tunnel direcly on the router from my phone or laptop."
"The most advanced Cloud Gateways, like the UCG-Max and the UCG-Fiber, and the Dream Machines can also do what the Cloud Key does plus acting as a router."

"I had smooth experience with Asus AX56U, Asus TUF AX3000V2, Asus RT-AXE7800, all bought used. ... 6ghz is usable but has a lot of microstutters/lost frames for me while 5ghz runs perfect like a cable lately (knocks on wood)."

"Last year, I bought an ASUS AX3000 WiFi 6 Router, but I returned it. I used it for ~3 weeks, but it was super unreliable compared to my current Asus AC-1900. I never figured out why. I thought it would be an upgrade, but it seemed slower and had tons of connection issues."
"had it replaced for 3x already due to pairing issues."
"they would no longer hold a charge"

"No devices connect to any nodes, only the primary access point."
"the AX3000 is only 2x2 dual band and has no dedicated radio for meshing, so if you mesh wirelessly, you end up halving the 5GHz bandwidth."
"There does seem to be a client limit at about 75-80 wifi devices whiche forced me to move iot devices to a separate wifi network."

"the AX3000 is only 2x2 dual band and has no dedicated radio for meshing, so if you mesh wirelessly, you end up halving the 5GHz bandwidth."
"every client connected to the AX3000 will have at best half the bandwidth available, because of its data having to be repeated on the same 5GHz channel to the AX86U."

"Note that in the last year I had Q3, the 5GHz wifi ran much smoother than 6Ghz and I have tried different routers with no change. So I cannot recommend a Wifi 6E router for Q3. ... Its some software problem, the pcvr connection is often broken with updates (i have some quest for 3 years) after some of the updates the 6ghz suddenly ran smooth just to revert with the next one. But 99% of the last 14months 5ghz 160mhz DFS ran better(but not always perfect). 6Ghz is usable but has a lot of microstutters/lost frames for me while 5ghz runs perfect like a cable lately (knocks on wood). ... Like dont stretch your budget getting the 6E if youre tight on money, it might not by worth."
"On the contrary 6ghz usually runs little bit worse."
I have the ax3000 and it’s fine. The only thing I wish it had natively was port mirroring. I never use the mesh or security insights etc. I do like that you can set up a guest network with timed access for when we have friends over. Another device with custom firmware and a laptop dedicated to network monitoring helped solve other concerns
r/ASUS • Help choosing router ->I've had zero problems with M1 for many years. Only went down once, and that was for scheduled maintenance in the middle of the night. Also, it's not just your internet plan that could be the cause of any issues. If your router isn't good enough, or is in a terrible position, or is overheating, or the bomb shelter is between your laptop and the router, you are gonna have issues no matter what plan you have. I have a standard 1Gbps plan but an Asus gaming router with ethernet cables going to the 3 heaviest users in the home – PS5, living TV and bedroom TV. I also set up a second router using Asus AImesh to provide wifi signal to one of the further corners of the house.
r/askSingapore • Recommendation for home broadband ->Most important things for me where: 1. Wifi 6 router 2. Have it direct next to the place you play. I have the ASUS TUF Gaming AX3000 - Gaming extendable router - 4G / 5G Router - WiFi 6 It's really good and only costs about 100 euro. You can shave off 20 dollae for a cheaper one. But why? And if you wver upgrade to a quest 3 or a new generstion wireless pcvr then at least you dpnt have to buy a new router.
r/virtualreality • Getting a router for VR. How good should it be? ->FYI , all of our current routers and mesh product all have extensive on router functionality including Open, Wireguard and much more. As such you could pick BT6, 8, 10, 16 our any of the routers. Also all of the units have our Gaming QoS option for prioritizing game packets and or specific systems, if you want a more streamlined experience our gaming models ( ROG, ROG STRIX, TUF GAMING ) also have dedicated Gaming Ports which are pre configured should you connect your device to that port. You can also do this manually through our firmware/app. Also note unless you need the coverage specific to a kit ( which can be done via AiMesh ) on the router side you have the benefit of no backhual use maximizing throughput if you are within the coverage area of a router.
r/HomeNetworking • Thinking of getting the ASUS ZenWiFi BT8 router ->Why not ASUS TUF- AX3000 v2? Have One and i love it
r/HomeNetworking • Which router should I pick? Light gaming/remote work/4 people ->I've been using AiMesh since the beginning, and it was rocky at first, but now I'm currently quite happy with it. One solid main router and two APs outside. What unifi did you get to replace your setup and do you think it was worth the cost?
r/HomeNetworking • What is the Best WiFi Mesh System for Home? 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 ->Asus AiMesh - Yea TP-Link Deco - Yes TP-Link Easy Mesh - Not sure
r/HomeNetworking • Wifi mesh system ->AImesh can do the job, but it will do it much better with wired backhaul if you can, especially because the AX3000 is only 2x2 dual band and has no dedicated radio for meshing, so if you mesh wirelessly, you end up halving the 5GHz bandwidth.
r/HomeNetworking • Upgrade ASUS RT-AX3000, or purchase an additional ASUS router to utilize AiMesh? ->Both AX86U and AX3000 have 2 radios: a 2.4GHz one and a 5GHz one There can't be a dedicated channel for mesh becaue there is no extra radio for mesh communication. AX86U does 4X4 MIMO on 5GHz instead of 2x2, so its radio can beamform a 3dB stronger signal to the AX3000, which helps with the bandwidth, especially in case of otherwise weak connection between the 2 devices. Still, every 5GHz device in this case is broadcasting on the same channel, so every client connected to the AX3000 will have at best half the bandwidth available, because of its data having to be repeated on the same 5GHz channel to the AX86U.
r/HomeNetworking • Upgrade ASUS RT-AX3000, or purchase an additional ASUS router to utilize AiMesh? ->Gotta be the tried and true asus ax3000. I’ve had mine for 5ish years now and it’s a tank. I left Netgear due to puma chipset connection-drop issues. The next step imo is OPNSense on a mini pc. Edit: forgot to add - for modems, whatever you do, do NOT get a modem with a puma chipset. Research the firmware issue for more detail, but lots of packet loss and dropped connections baked into it.
r/HomeNetworking • "Best" consumer router under $200? ->Wi-Fi 6 I can personally vouch for the ASUS AX1800 or AX3000 routers. Avoid TP-Link and Huawei Wi-Fi '6' routers for VR gaming specifically, they're know to cause issues. Their Wi-Fi '6e' routers are fine though. In terms of connecting multiple headsets to the same router, do you mean you're playing native games downloaded on the Quests [no PC] and are just using the router to get internet to them? Or do you have multiple PCs setup and doing PC VR gaming?
