UniFi Express 7
I had an Asus setup with a GT-BE98 WiFi 7 router and 2 RT-AX88U as mesh nodes. Compared to this my UDR7 and Express 7 are pants in terms of WiFi coverage but are more stable as the Asus would often bomb out for no reason. I did buy another Express 7 to use as a mesh with the other and that has helpe

UX7 Poor Range
I recently moved to the Unifi stuff having had an Asus GT-BE98 WiFi 7 and 2 Asus RT-AX88U as mesh nodes. I've got the UDR7 and 2 UX7's. The range on the UX7's are rubbish compared to the Asus gear, I've had to put my UX7 at the top of the stairs and then run a cable through the loft to a switch in o

UniFi Express 7
That was me too, I'd sold my Asus GT-BE98 to fund the UDR7 and Express 7 and then the WiFi coverage was rubbish so I was like 'what have I done' Having got a 2nd Express 7 and plenty of tweaking things seem to be good now and much more stable than the Asus. I do need to get an outdoor one but the eq

Recommend a router for a CF ISP & switching in contract questions
My only recommendation would be to use a provider which has their own router. I made the mistake of seeing an offer for using your own router, went out the way to buy an ASUS RT-AX88U pro as the reviews said perfect for multigig. Then proceeded to hear that it was likely ‘my hardwares fault’ or ‘set

FIOS problems with non-Verizon routers? ASUS specifically?
2 and a half years after your comment and it’s still happening. They haven’t released a firmware to fix this. At least not for the RT-AX88U Pro. Even with all the complaints people have made to ASUS about this over the years. I did the Dual WAN method a couple days ago and the speed tests started sh

Struggling with VLANs on a TL-SG108E Switch
OK to answer my own problem ;-) I did find this about the Asus router now, so it seems the TP-Link setup is 100% correct above. From https://www.snbforums.com/threads/rt-ax88u-pro-tl-sg108e-managed-switch-and-vlan.86379 IF you have configured some (not all) ports on your switch to be a VLAN, then yo
