How did you setup your WiFi?
The most important thing you can do is HARDWIRE CONNECTION TO CONSOLE FROM ROUTER. After that: get a dedicated router if possible, do not use the trash your cable company provides. QOS prioritizing. Make the Portal the highest priority and the PS5 directly below that. 5ghz if at all possible, dual b

Streaming U.S. content
Install the VPN directly on the router, most proper ones support that. I've got the Asus RT-AX88U, 6 years old and working like a charm. That way your phone and TV are on the same network for screen casting, but you can also just use apps directly on the TV or Apple TV, since everything connected to

Are Nanoleaf a bunch of cowboys?
I don't know what Nanoleaf is, but all my light sets have simply stopped connecting, I've tried deleting them entirely deleting the app and clearing all the data. Maybe it's my Asus RT-AX88U-Pro Wifi 6 router and the lights are simply incompatible with modern WiFi standards I don't know, but... I've

I’ve had it…
I had similar issues and ive always been an ASUS router guy dating back since Wireless G. Ive always found that the stock firmware is ok depending on the hardware. With that said i ended up migrating to Merlin and that worked out for me a for a long time before i entered the Unifi brand. My older RT

Best home wifi router?
Hey! With a $500 budget, you’ve got some awesome choices. For solid coverage (up to or beyond 5000 sq ft) and gigabit speeds, I’d go with a TP-Link Deco XE75 Pro mesh system Wi-Fi 6E, super reliable, and great range even into the garage.. If you prefer a single powerful router, the ASUS RT-AX88U or

How do I know when to replace my router?
I picked up a Asus RT-AX88U Pro from Amazon Renewed for $55 which I thought was a great deal by, and it's been rock solid stable since day 1. Most refurb routers are returned because folks have an issue configuring it . I have it meshed with 2 Asus Blue Cave routers and it switches over to the stron

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
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

Help choosing a router for upgraded internet
Couple of Asus router recommendations. There's the GT-AX6000 or RT-AX88U Pro, two different wifi 6 routers that have virtually the same electronics inside. If you want to stick your toe in the water with wifi 7, there's the RT-BE96U,, which has been on sale a lot. Both of these routers have given me
