  Why something like this instead of a 3-way mesh router (like Eero)?

    I want a 10G port for my NAS.

    Eero is also on sale: https://www.amazon.com.au/eero-Ethernet-Coverage-Connect-str…

      Why do you need 10Gbit WiFi for a NAS?

      A 10G switch (2x SFP+) is like $80 on AliExpress, is $900 really worth it to save plugging in a cord the one time you need to move large amounts of data?

      Also, Xiaomi has an alternative for ~$350

    Easier to set up. Has RGB which equals more speed. 8 antennas mean 8 times less latency. It’s also been proven that spider shaped routers mean better penetration through walls including brick and steel.

  I assumed the crossover between those who will spend $1k on a router and who will use a consumer grade router is quite small but maybe I'm wrong.

  Holy Jesus, $1k for a router?! You could get a sparkie in for a few hours to run cat 7 cable across a few rooms plus a 2.5GbE switch for that.

    Agreed. A total rip off for the vast majority.

    PlaunsJanus on 26/08/2024 - 21:06

    Yeah but VR without wires is why I need a good wireless connection.
    Same reason I need a wired connection.
    I have both and I didn't spend $1000

    That's actually an good point re hardwiring the house.
    No way vast majority of users would notice the apparent benefits of this router compared to something a fraction of the price.
    Why do you need 10G WAN? You're not a commercial data centre

  "I have a quad-band gaming router, do you?"

  "I sleep in a big bed with $900."
