    Oooft… power usage must be through the roof then!

      Yes. If the roof is operated by power.

      I had to look up what the actual AI capabilities are. It's basically enhanced QOS-like features that are automated. Selecting WiFi channels with less congestion, prioritising traffic based on patterns (i.e. gaming) and parental controls.

          @Make it so if that's all it takes to make something "AI enabled", then I'm going to say this about 50% of my work-related spreadsheets.

            @thisisscotts: Definitely. A.I. is just the same stuff with increased complexity. Some is genuinely advanced, but much of it is just basic conditional logic that was achievable 30 years ago.

      So the lousy firmware can be classified as AI hallucinations. Can use OpenWRT though (no AI, but allow proper human control and more advanced features).

    Check the comments on previous posts. These are only good if you're planning to flash them to OpenWRT.

  • Namidairo on 25/11/2024 - 14:18

    Good price for two 4-stream radios.

    Although the 2.4ghz one is 802.11n only, not 11ax.

    I'll note that you'll probably end up trading a little bit of speed on 2.4ghz for stability if you flash OpenWrt, given that they don't support QAM256 on 11n. (Which is more of a vendor quirk than anything)

    CPU performance is decent, it's not mindblowing but it's still a step above the MT7621. Gigabit SQM won't be possible.

    Yeah, I made the mistake of ordering the 4 pack. They are absolutely terrible. Flashed 2 to OpenWrt but struggling to put them in mesh setup. If I somehow manage to, I’ll flash the remaining 2.

    Also, hard to flash them back to stock either. Stuck on how to compile the binary.

    • repeat on 26/11/2024 - 10:04

      I ordered the 3 pack, put openwrt on the lot and have found they behave better for me as 2 rather than 3 - (I think routing loops or some such brings it to a halt more often when there are more nodes).

      Originally I had one as the main router running Adguard but memory seemed too marginal, and it would often restart itself, so I got a better main router.

      Now using a nanopi r4s as the main router running Adguard, then one of the M32 as an AP and mesh gateway using batman and 802.11s, the other M32 as a mesh client using same.

      I almost purchased a few Mercusys MR90X and was going to see if I could run the pair of them as an AP mesh using easymesh, but it appears easymesh can only work if you use one of them as the main router, so I decided against it.

      Nanopi and 2x M32 still not the best though, but seems significantly more reliable with 2 instead of 3 nodes.

      • puffinfresh on 26/11/2024 - 11:54

        Yeah, I had much better network stability after removing my 3rd node.

    I was on the verge of buying these some months ago at a similar price and then I started reading the reviews.

    You should read the reviews.

  • tottenman on 25/11/2024 - 14:46

    Any recommendations for good version of these ?

    • sriver on 28/11/2024 - 13:39

      TP link deco x20 ax1800, which is the newer version of the old deco M5. Have used the M5 three pack for a long time and it’s easy to work with.
      Suggested the newer one to a friend and they were happy with ease of setup.

      I’d have thought D link would be a good brand but reading these comments means more reading is required

      I should have never upgraded from my MW3. I didn't need the extra capacity, and it just introduced issues. The stock firmware was not reliable at all, requiring frequent power cycles (even the built in reboot schedule wasn't reliable).

      • vince088 on 25/11/2024 - 17:41

        Thanks for info

  • UrbanLegend on 25/11/2024 - 15:49

    With Openwrt, can one specify which parent node a child node connects to? Also, is it possible to lock a device to a specific node and wifi frequency? Thank you.

    • Namidairo on 25/11/2024 - 16:21

      can one specify which parent node a child node connects to

      You could configure it for WDS Access Point/Client if you wished, although one might want to see if an 11s mesh would perform better, especially if you had clients on some of the edge nodes that you'd rather talk to each other in a more direct manner rather than going through the one setup as AP.

      Also, is it possible to lock a device to a specific node and wifi frequency?

      Basically you want band-steering? I believe you should look into DAWN or usteer to achieve that.

      I'll note that most of the stuff I've mentioned above will most likely require an OpenWrt image with more than the usual wpad-basic package. Either install it after with opkg (although the router would require connection to the internet + DNS + gateway settings), or get the firmware selector to spit out an image with the packages you require.

      • UrbanLegend on 26/11/2024 - 09:38

        Thanks for the detailed info. Looks like I'll have to do some research if I go along this route. But I like tinkering with stuff so this might actually be interesting and fun.

      I wouldn't think so. Mercusys is a TP-Link brand with no relation to D-Link.

    do these have Ethernet backhaul?

    i.e. can they boost wifi to areas where you have Ethernet cabling?

  • TSH on 28/11/2024 - 11:07

    Can i plug these into a opnsense minipc and not use the routing services?

    • netsurfer on 28/11/2024 - 22:39
      +1

      Put OpenWRT on these, then it opens up features like proper VLAN support. These can work as access points so OPNSense device is still the main router and these just do the WiFi. I haven't got around to try VLANs on OPNSense + VLANs on OpenWRT combo. I am hoping to get multiple WiFi setup (for 2 VLANs) and still have VLANs which are LAN only. Though, my preference is to use them as access points (so Ethernet backhaul) and as such, I am hoping I can get one port setup as VLAN trunk port (haven't touched OpenWRT for years, but it does look like it has a lot of good features now).

  • smiles on 29/11/2024 - 16:50

    Would the mesh work seamlessly if I flash OpenWRT? I was previously told openWRT + mesh won't go well..

    • puffinfresh on 29/11/2024 - 17:23

      I have it running, but only with 2 nodes. It wasn't reliable with 3; maybe my apartment is too small.

      One connects to my FTTC NBN NCD, the other connects wirelessly to that one. Same SSID with seamless switching. The second one also runs a guest SSID vlan. I recall it being difficult to have the guest network broadcast on both nodes, but didn't bother going down that path because I only needed it on the second node.

    I have this 3-pack mesh. Don't buy it,t guys; it's a crap mesh router, always stuck and requires a restart every 4 hours and connecting everything; I kept it at a proper distance it works adequately, but my tp-link deco e4 3 pack where thousand times better.

    Have tried to install open wrt and dd-wrt, as it would disable the mesh-ness of it
