I had a Ruckus R700 for my home and it was nice. I ended up selling it and trying this (because I want to learn new products). It’s okay. I ended up deploying this when I worked at a local YMCA since they had no budget. I put 4 of these in one building and it was ah-mazing with zero problems. They had so many users connected and they worked decent. I recently purchased a R510 for my home to replace the Zyxel WAC6503D-S. I think I’ll stick with the R510 for a while. Works great!
“Device location – Uranus” HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA
I’m a child sometimes.
Who the hell would do this its all about the Dial Up guys am i right?
I don’t think this will make much difference, my internet is only 5Mbs down, AKA 500KBs.
@LinusTechTips Unifi vs Xclaim?? What do you think?
wow did you just assume wanda’s gender
Hey Linus, are you still using this AP? If so, has the FW been updated to better support management?
So does this AP provide better wifi connection? Better range? Both? Or does it just support more concurrent devices?
Linus…. you can have the same SSID and the same password to create a seamless transition between AP’s.
Great video, but I am sorely disappointed that Wanda never got to make an appearance.
What would you recommend as a router that leads to this access point?
A questionnaire type setup is quite a good idea for wifi for the less knowledgeable consumer that has never been done… maybe even have a router that can automatically try a few settings between a test dongle, or something, that can actually find the right settings with one button click, since figuring out how to get consumers to actually change their own settings is a challenge, some don’t even know what an address bar is. Though I hope that problem will solve itself in about ~40 years, but that is hopeful thinking, as some people are just plain too lazy to learn.
One year.
Does this case support 4k?
Linus 1 6 and 11 is the american standard for wireless channels, 1 5 9 and 13 is the european. They have approximately the same effect, and most home users will not see a benefit from using the american standards. They may actually see performance improvement from the european standard, depending on the amount of wifi signals(the more signals there are, the better the european standard is). I say this because i’ve never had less than 5 visible networks in my house
Just ordered this AP, should arrive tomorrow, lets see if it does a better job then my current consumer router + repeater.. Cause I’m not happy with that at all considering speed and stability :/
+LinusTechTips This or Google OnHub
@linusTechTips how this AP get compared to an Unifi ap ac?.. is it better? and how better?
i am a noob with wifi :/ i live in michigan with 200 kbps down and up. (ikr amazing) what should i get to improve this situation? please reply
So it’s time for a show that talks to consumers (Home) users alternatives for Internet Access that isn’t buying dual DSL accounts from AT&T or subjecting yourself to the huge performance range of Comcast Cable service. Oh, and what about Fixed Point Wireless and Satellite Service with DirecTV/AT&T (was Hughes) or Dish?
+LinusTechTips What router would to recomend to install with these access points for a user that requires static ip’s and port forwarding as well as several wired devices?
what are the main hardware differences between enterprise routers and top of the range routers eg dlink 890L?
Serious question, how does it compare with a UniFi AP? That’s what I use at the moment.
how does this compare to the APPLE AP?
God damnit wanda
What’s your obsession with Wanda? Does your wife know about Wanda?
Can someone confirm for me once and for all, I’ve been looking here there and everywhere and people always say multiple things about Wireless Access Points. Is it possible for me to set up an access point in another room in my house, which has NO wired connection whatsoever to my Router, and have it connect to my PC via ethernet cord? If so, which Access Points are good and affordable to look at? (Somewhere between £20-40, if this isn’t the case, don’t mention powerline adapters, doesn’t work with my router setup unfortunately!)
I wish those were sold worldwide…
but no roaming. . . my house is too big for only one of these and manually changing connections is bs
