I am seeing many deals for routers and mesh systems lately, I have mentioned this in a few comments and posted links. Since I have been using this I have no need for any mesh, it covers the entire house . Even if you feel like grabbing two and using it as mesh the firmware makes it easy to do so. Buy 2 get 20% off.
CamelCamelCamel.
if only it had 9 antennas
so it's got 8 because it's 8 stream? couldn't they have made it 9-stream or 10-stream? or even 12 stream? like a V12…
Less than $20 per antenna is pretty good though!
Looks good they also have a reasonably priced Wifi 7 model that has multigigabit ports if you want to future proof.
Link please
Do not buy the wifi range is no where near as good as the AX6000 model I have listed I know because I tested both and returned the wifi 7 router
Another option for wifi 7
AU$225.21 | Xiaomi Mi Router BE7000 Tri-Band WiFi Repeater VPN 1GB Mesh USB 3.0 IPTV 4 x 2.5G Ethernet Ports Modem Signal Amplifier PPPoE
yeah I don't trust Chinese companies, especially with networking of any kind.
I have this Xiaomi BE7000 Router. Rock solid perfomance. I love it. Just be aware that it does not support the 6 Ghz channel spectrum, so not a proper WiFi 7 router.
if only this was wifi 7
This was around $145 a few days ago. Then with buy two mercury products and extra %20 of brang it to $125 with extra USB wifi stick
Yeah that is how much I paid for mine .
Decent price for the specs.
I think Mercusys is basically the No Frills version of TP Link. Can anyone comment on the quality of the firmware and uptime of their hardware?
Correct, Mercusys is owned by TP-Link, so think of it like Coles and Woolies home brand products.
I would pay the few extra $$$ and rather deal with amzon then mydeal but hey thanks for the neg!.
dont take it personal
Nice. Over 9% cheaper through mydeal which is a significant price difference. Ended up buying from them. Cheers for the headsup
Can you wall mount this? Tried looking through the user manual but no luck.
It'll be a great deal if this router version is supported by OpenWRT.
Can anyone confirm OpenWRT works on this version?
firmware is fine as is!.
Does current stock firmware support Wireguard or OpenVPN? Adblock custom lists?
I think once you use OpenWRT, it's hard to regress…unless you're using OPNSense/PFSense
From what I can find online, it appears EU version 1 is supported by OpenWRT.
Someone will still complain that there's not enough antennas…
