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.

            @Clear: tbh, everyone's needs is different so i never get this argument. I could certainly use the increased bandwidth as I transfer lots of photos and media to/from my PC and DAS.

            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 haven’t commented about that at all. All I have said is that in recent years I have worked for a business that sold military surplus, and supplied many cadets as well as members of the ADF with gear, and still have strong connections to people in this business even though I no longer work for the company.

      @DrScavenger - I almost spent $1435 on an Australian model Asus ROG Rapture GT-BE98 Wi-Fi 7 router yesterday, the staff at the closest JW Computers store to me convinced me not to though. I’ll probably still end up buying it, because whatever new router I decide to purchase I want it to have great specs that will last me the next 7-10 years, and supposedly NBN speeds are going to increase during this time.

      • mathew42 on 19/08/2024 - 18:39

        Not worth spending that much unless you have very specific requirements.
        Buy last year's model every 3 years and it will be cheaper and possibly still covered by security updates.

        • Cevolution on 19/08/2024 - 18:50

          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.

    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.

    • bargaino on 19/08/2024 - 23:07

      I did that using USB tethering to an old 4G phone.
      The PC you connect it to can act as a router for the LAN if needed.
      I used a software router in a VM, but that was probably overkill.

    • lawyerz on 20/08/2024 - 00:38

      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.

      I do that when NBN goes down and I need a temporary fallback.

    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.

      • hopper on 19/08/2024 - 21:27

      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.

      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.

    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.

      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

    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
