This previously popular Xiaomi WiFi 6 router is back on sale for those who missed out last time and if you have AliExpress Coins you can get an extra 2% off. With support for OpenWrt this is one of the cheapest AX3000 routers on the market.

Featuring all the essentials including both 2.4GHz (574Mbps) and 5GHz (2402Mbps) with a combined speed of up to 3000Mbps, 4 antennas and 4 Gigabit LAN/WAN ports. It supports Mesh functionality with other Xiaomi mesh compatible routers and NFC easy pairing for Android phones. More info on Xiaomi's website.

The cheapest variant on the listing is the one with the US plug, while AU plug variant uses a converter. I believe the power adapter is 12V/4A and uses a 4.0mm x 1.7mm DC barrel plug. Price in title is on the US plug variant.

Edit: You can try applying IFPFC4Z or IFP5MXK or IFPNX2H to get it for US$28.02 (~A$42.42). Otherwise:

Apply the coupon AUS030 at checkout

AU$ based on current Mastercard rate, GST inclusive and stacks with cashback.

How to get the AU$ price in the title with PayPal:

Setting overseas websites to AUD or letting PayPal do the currency conversion results in an inflated rate. To get the correct rate you need a card without international fees and do the following:

Set the website currency to USD

Checkout with PayPal

Select your card with no international fees

Click "See currency options"

Select USD to bill the card in USD instead of AUD

Proceed with checkout

Now you'll get the correct MasterCard or VISA exchange rate depending on the card.

        real world performance between wifi 7 and wifi 6 should be quite substantial due to the lack of 6ghz in wifi 6. nevertheless, $45 for wifii 6 router that is openwrt compatible, solid.

        @Clear: Your comprehension skills leave a lot to be desired. That’s not what I said, I said that it’s not a tactical torch based on the requirements for cadets, and that the torch that was advertised and posted is irrelevant to them because it doesn’t qualify as adequate and isn’t appropriate according to cadets schools for the students to be able to complete their exercises.
        
        You said you used do cadets, but never responded to my question asking when that was (which I have my suspicions that you’re old and it was a long time ago), and never answered my question about your qualifications, expertise and your knowledge regarding the standards for military gear used by the ADF, and have you ever sold and supplied cadets and members of the ADF with their gear. If you choose to ignore the question again, then that’s enough evidence to support what I already think about your you and your comments.

I’m not a boomer though, I’m a first year millennial born in 1981, however I’m inclined to believe that the member I’ve been disagreeing with Clear is a boomer, probably close to the same age as my father, and perhaps retired with nothing better to do who comes here to fill up his days. Although if Clear is my fathers age he mustn’t have a lot of money, because retired people with money don’t waste the time they have left regularly posting on sites like this and online in general, instead they’re far too busy enjoying themselves, like my father and his wife are at moment in their new caravan upgrade which cost them $160000, camping in rural Australia, or if that and travelling around Australia isn’t to your liking, travelling around other countries.

      There are certain features that it has that I’m wanting… My runner up is the the ROG Rapture GT-AX11000 Pro, and actually regret not buying the Australian model for $549 on Amazon.au about a month ago ($569 with a $20 voucher). Decent routers seem to be around the $400 mark and they’re missing some key features that I’m after that the GT-AX11000 Pro includes, I don’t see the sense in spending $400 if it doesn’t include everything I want. The GT-AX11000 pro is currently $750 so I feel if I’m going to pay that for it I may as well buy the BE-98 instead. The high cost of it doesn’t bother me, I’m in the market for a new one and I just want to buy a top of the range one and forget about it for about 10 years, just like the current router I own that I’m wanting to upgrade from. The suburb I live was one of the first to ever get NBN when it debuted and I have had fibre to premises from the very beginning.

        @airtime: Maybe so, each to their own, to be honest I actually quite like it, and performance is what matters to me the most being a man… Just the same as it does for home theatre and having big floor standing speakers, rear and side surround speakers, Dolby Atmos speakers in the ceiling or quality upfiring speakers, large subwoofers, plus a large A/V receiver and amplifiers, over tiny inferior baby toy soundbars. While some might think the Asus gaming routers are ugly due the upside down spider look, it’s those large 8 antennas that provides greater range and coverage in homes over almost any other router.

  - Agret on 20/08/2024 - 10:10
    
    You are far better off spending that money on a mesh system than a single expensive router. You won't see much of a speed improvement unless you are in the same room as your router and you have 1gbps NBN.
    
    As far as future proofing goes the wifi7 standard still isn't finalized and we haven't got the full frequency licensed here so if you buy today I would probably recommend Wi-Fi 6e over the Wifi7 premium pricing.

  They can put WiFi 7 but with essentially the same performance to the WiFi 6… It's just a standard. Fast route/AP will cost money and today even a good performance WiFi 6E will cost 500 or more.

      What he is saying is that you can install a different operating system on the router which is called "openwrt"
      The process of installing the operating system is called "flashing"
      
      Since you didn't understand what he meant, this wouldn't be something you want to attempt doing, but perhaps if you have a geeky friend who could do it for you.

Could somebody point me in the direction of a router that I can use with a sim card for a few months until my lease expires.

All I've found is a 5g one that is around the 200 dollar mark. 5g reception at this place is questionable at best, so a 4g model will suffice.

  if you have a spare old phone, you can stick a sim card in there, enable tethering, and either hotspot it or spend $30 on these travel routers: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/search/node/mango%20gl that'll work too.

just ordered TP link AX1500 that has wifi6 for $69 from TGGC. not sure if this is better ?
- Clear on 19/08/2024 - 21:16
  
  In terms of WiFi speed this is 2.4GHz (574Mbps) and 5GHz (2402Mbps), while the TP-Link is 2.4GHz (300Mbps) and 5GHz (1201Mbps). So faster theoretical speeds, however the TP-Link has the advantage of English firmware out of the box and local warranty. While with the Xiaomi the native firmware is Chinese and you'd need to muck around with flashing OpenWrt if you wanted something more open and flexible.

    private companies cease to be independent once they gain enough influence to be geopolitically significant
    
    this is extreme in places like china but not entirely foreign here in the west
    
    hell we even had decryption laws passed in this country

I was just about to grab a BE7000 as they are down to $180 but saw this deal.
Would this be just as quick for home use with a few your pretty standard WiFi devices? Also wanting to have strong signal.

  Just be aware that the BE7000 and all Xiaomi WiFi 6E/7 routers lack the 6GHz band due to it not being approved for use in China. You're still going to get fast speeds with 2.4GHz/5GHz but won't be tri-band.
  - lankfert on 19/08/2024 - 22:31
    
    OK thanks. I remember reading the 6GHz thing above. What about the BE7000 vs AX3000T though? There's a fair price difference and if the AX3000T will perform much the same, i guess i'll grab that instead.

      Overall it's a better router. More antennas, 2.5G LAN/WAN ports, dual WAN, 4x4 MU-MIMO, WiFi 7's 5GHz MLO, NFC pairing, USB 3.0 port, faster CPU among others.

I've heard that the Chinese version has a better range, compared to other versions.

  The hardware is functionally identical to my knowledge, but in terms of software the Chinese version is easier to overwrite with OpenWrt for now, as vulnerabilities were easier to locate on those as the firmware image is public.
  
  Any range difference between the two would come down to regulatory domain controls.
  
  Which also ends up moot when you flash OpenWrt and just use the AU country code for regdom anyway.

  You might be thinking of the Xiaomi AX3000 router which is a different model to the AX3000T. I recall the difference was that the Chinese firmware allowed for different channel width's on 5GHz, i.e. 40MHz (12 channels) & 80MHz (6 channels), while the Global firmware only allowed 80MHz (6 channels). I could be wrong.
- Sage222 on 21/08/2024 - 11:23
  
  you are correct. chinese law allows for higher power transmission that australia.

Dumb question as I previously bought the ISP provided modem router like 10 years ago. If I buy this router, do I still need a modem. I have FTTN at my home.
- lawyerz on 20/08/2024 - 00:34
  
  yes you do. Your modem will be relegated to being just a modem and then this device can take over to be your router and access point (wifi) functions
  - pinkybrain on 20/08/2024 - 08:20
    
    how would you integrate this device if you got the black arris modem and telstra smart modem/router?

      You have a few options in that case.
      
      Replace the Telstra Smart Modem with it and have this handle the DHCP/IPoE (or god forbid, PPPoE) session
      
      Attach it to the Telstra Smart Modem and have it run as another access point
      
      As a repeater somewhere else in your home
      
      Curl up into a ball and cry
      
      Any of these options should work.
  - Tomaus62 on 21/08/2024 - 22:44
    
    Hmm thanks… I bought it, will give it a go to integrate my old my republic WiFi modem router. Not sure how yet. I don’t have the black box, I simply connected my myrepublic WiFi modem router to the wall port, I think it’s the RJ11 port.

it's not the easy to openwrt I tried pretty hard, I tried the easy method of using a bootloader change but still it's hard

Will this be an upgrade if I have Nighthawk R8000? It is an old router with wifi 5 tri band but has good features and great wifi signal strength.
I have a NAS system that I use to store files mainly for Plex and backups. Will wifi 6 make a huge difference with transfer speed?
I can probably sell it on marketplace for $50 easily and buy this.
bailbondsh on 20/08/2024 - 09:34

So I have an NBN box. And possibly a dodgy modem. Can this replace a modem? Or does it need to have an ethernet cable going into it which it doesn't have?

  Sounds like fiber to the premise? Then yes, a router like this will suffice as the ‘nbn box’ is actually the modem.
  The router will likely come with an ethernet cable that you connect to the box.
  - bailbondsh on 20/08/2024 - 12:42
    
    Thanks RP. It comes with a silly adapter, often those things hardly plug in. Might have to buy a better quality one. Also do you know if these deals last long? I still need to work out if my current Dodo modem is the problem/Dodo itself (which is hard to work out, through their trial and error process, as I've tried multiple things with them, and they are unlikely going to flat-out say "It's us". Someone recommended that I try using the ethernet connection, but how would that work out if it's a problem with the WIFI etc….
    - Save 50 Cent on 20/08/2024 - 15:32
      
      I am not sure what adapter you are talking about? Can you link an image of a similar one?
      You need to let us know what type of nbn connection you have.. look up your address on nbn website (or telstra as if you are going to order nbn) and it will tell you ‘you are connected on FTTP, FTTN or HFC etc’
      Let me know which one it is and I will be able to give you a better advice.

        @Save 50 Cent: This modem comes with a US plug, so i need an adapter, the chinese ones in the past that i've used are very flimsy. I'm FTTP. Cheers

        @bailbondsh: Oh so a power adapter. Shouldn’t make a difference. The modem is either getting power or isn’t.
        
        With FTTP, it is very unlikely there is a problem with the nbn side of it. It is either the dodo modem, or the dodo themselves.
        I would change provider anyway to a better one since it is super easy to do. All it takes is signing up online with another provider or calling them. You should be able to find better ones that charge similar to dodo pricing.
        
        I would also disregard dodo’s shitty modem and get yourself a reliable router. I think this would be good enough but I have not tried it myself.

        Some days the internet drops out a fair bit and then some weeks it won't drop out.

        @bailbondsh: Nah.. very unlikely to be a laptop issue.
        
        Launtel have 7 day free trial. Sign up and have it on another uni d port (So you will have two working services). Test Launtel and see if you are still having issues. And go from there.
        If it works better (very likely), then cancel dodo and sign up with a good provider with reasonable pricing. There are plenty of them.

        @bailbondsh: On the nbn box, you have 4 ports names UNI-D 1 to 4. You can have up to 4 services simultaneously one on each port.
        Check which one you are connected to now, and then you can ask the other providers to either connect you on a vacant port (if you want to keep the current service), or the same port you are currently on (which means you are porting out your service).
        Happy to help if you have any more questions.

OpenWRT is amazing. It works with plugins, once you install the QOS one it’s set and forget automatic and nothing ever starves or games never lose ping no matter what’s going on. I also recommend installing upnp despite it no longer recommended due to risks.

Blown away.
- Oofy Doofy on 20/08/2024 - 15:57
  
  Why would you use QoS when you could install SQM, and then set up Adaptive SQM? Then set up Dangerous Configuration. Then set up a cron job to re-establish a connection to your modem if there's ever a random disconnection.
  
  And then and then and then… the options are near endless. UPNP is another one to set up. Usage monitors, detailed graphing… I could go on for hours, but you get the idea.
