When coverage and reliability is your primary concern, you are looking at fit access point and controller solution. And Ubiquity by far, being one of the few supplier offer user friendly solution at the most reasonable cost and no licensing fee for basic operation. Other comparable are H3C (Split fr

Please help me pick a router - big budget
You say you have a BIG Budget, how big? Nothing is future-proof. How big is your house? How large is your yard and do you want good Wifi out there. Where if your Router located.

I need a new router
TLDR: I'd suggest the RT-BE82U for dual-band WiFi 7 (2.4ghz/5ghz) as it has 2.5gb WAN/LAN ports. I'd suggest the TUF-BE9400 for tri-band WiFi 7 (also has 2.5gb WAN/LAN ports) and also has 6ghz band if that is important. Details: Good options listed above (ASUS BE3600 or TP-Link BE6500) but I don't l

Wifi 7 Routers - reviewed & compared
I’ve been down that same rabbit hole, and honestly, WiFi 7 right now is a mix of overhyped marketing and half-baked firmware. I tested the TP-Link BE800 and the Asus RT-BE96U side by side for a few weeks, and they both had insane raw speed but random disconnects that made me want to pull my hair out
