BH3333333I cannot get my Deco Xe200 to connect to the network despite many hours on the phone with customer support. My OLD SLOW google wifi is rock solid. With the new push from congress on May 15, I'm done fooling with it and sticking with what works.
Any_Process_3713Get a tri band mesh router set. Like deco wifi 6e or 7. I had 6e were decent and then got a pair of d link be9300's used for $200.
linearnerdUnpopular opinion: I did the ubqiuiti rabbit hole and it’s not worth it. They don’t update their hardware fast enough. When things failed it was a pain in the ass to get back up. I’d have to reboot the whole system more. I put in a deco system at my sisters and was amazed how much faster it was than my network. I ripped out every one of the ubiquiti boxes, put in 2.5 gig managed switches, got deco 6e, pfsense router and have far less issues and money & time spent. Running them as just ap’s is great and I only need two now versus 3 ap’s with ubquity. I was able to upgrade my internet past the 1 gig to 3 gig plan now that I could actually hit those speeds. I have close to 70 devices on the network between iot, hosts and a nas. I can easily get over a gig on my phone now to the net and transfer files internally far faster. Save your money and time. Don’t go ubuiqiti. 20 year network admin here.
Randyd718I have the Wi-Fi 6E deco with the dedicated wireless backhaul and it's been bulletproof.
zaedauxThey are incredible and simple. I’ve had a setup with the WiFi 6e ones, and now have one with WiFi 7 ones. Literally stellar performance. Do you have first hand experience?
AppeltaartlekkerI have a tp-link wifi 6e router. Was 100 euro. 2400.mbps connection.
CaptainChunck93Just get a wifi 6 E router to replace the main router if it isnt already a wifi 6e not sure a dedicated VR router is necessary at all seem to be snake oil sales to me if I'm honest iv got 2.5gig fiber Internet in the UK and I have 1 TP link wifi 6e router that supply's my whole house with no issues I get 1200gig both ways via WiFi on most devices and the full 2.5gig on my desktops that's on ethernet and internal connections for example i use Sunshine & Moonlight to game stream to my living room TV or my bedroom projector and I get the full 2.5gig speed test to my desktop from the tv, projector and my phone that are on wifi Iv uses TP link for years there a good brand I also worked in IT & Telecommunications in the military for 7 years so iv got a good grasp on networking
KowalskiTheGreatThat's like the best possible router for quest3, I've had mine for a good few months and it's been flawless both with quest3 and galaxy XR. 6ghz band absolutely shits on my previous 700$ ROG AXE11000 despite being like half the price
This specific tp-link absolutely fucks for 6ghz VR streaming, prismXR is also good but only does 5ghz unless they recently released a new one. I have both, as well as a ROG AXE11000 and the tp-link is the winner
