Slightly better than AX10

Not the lowest price, let me know of your opinion. Since the RBK50, I have router overload, don't understand why there is so many different ones

    I bought one of these from amazon earlier this year to use as part of my mesh network ( it supports easymesh). If like mine its the eu version it wont like bands my mesh network use over 100 for 5g causing chaos!! After weeks of debuging i worked this out forced the 5g to the lower bands ( which are also much more power in australia so better range) and everythings good. Also note cpu in thus is much slower than the similar specced ax10.

    • Yeah, EU transmit limits are a pretty anaemic 25mW for the higher 5ghz channels.

      The lack of easily selectable country in many stock firmwares (from many vendors) is pretty annoying as well. Even auto-detecting from other access points (Some/many access points advertise their country code. Intel does this on their client cards to detect country, among other things.) would work out better in this circumstance.

  • So what’s the point of Wi-Fi 6 at only 1500 when you can get Wi-Fi 5 at 5400? It’s not range because Wi-Fi 6 doesn’t improve that so is it purely a better connection for multiple devices? If so you’d need a heck of a lot of devices to take advantage of that and at that point you would probably want more than a 1500 connection anyways… or have I missed something?

    • i bought it just for my multiple iot devices

      • You may not get the uplift that you were expecting, given that this is still a 2x2 11n radio on 2.4ghz. Likely very similar to your current router in specification. Unless you want to plug this puppy in on another channel as a dedicated IoT access point while keeping your current wifi router as well, which could work.

        That and the vast majority of IoT haven't moved to 11ax capable chipsets yet either, sadly.

    • like a netgear mesh network would be overkill for my small apartment

  • Interestingly the AX12 isn't on the TP link NBN compatible list

      That list is most likely manually updated.

      Given that this is a wireless router without VDSL modem (ie. No FTTN/B compatibility), it's pretty hard to screw compatibility with the remaining technologies.

      I haven't seen a vendor really screw up DHCP or PPPoE to the point that it wouldn't connect properly in recent times. (Ignoring that half of them have broken IPv6 implementations still)

  • Do these routers have an option of installing custom firmware, much like how Asus has Merlin?
