![]() You have to be careful about looking at speed it generally is only used for downloads which unless you are torrent teen it is a small percentage of your overall use. ![]() That said I seriously doubt we will see gigabit wifi but maybe ?. If you are already getting 500mbps on your current system I would think the wifi6e will be better.assuming your end devices support wifi6e. ![]() I would not pay extra for a so called "mesh" router. I dislike mesh routers mostly because it is advertising hype that gets people to pay more for devices than they should. Multiple brick wall will absorb massive amounts of signals. Your house is the perfect example of a bad wifi house. In theory the signals should be absorbed more. What is still unknown is does the 6ghz greatly impact the performance over 5ghz. In general wifi6e should be a better performer because there is so much radio bandwidth that it reduces the competition between nieghbors, unlike wifi6 that there really is only 1 160mhz block to share and it can be disrupted by weather radar in some areas. You see the common fake/paid review sites and the end users bragging about their "number" size. There is not a lot of good information about wifi6e from real end users. It seems the main difference is one has a 2.5g port which will make no difference until you buy a plan faster then 1gbit from the ISP. If both are on the list then it is up to you I guess. The ISP is responsible for firmware updates and support of the modem even when you purchase it which is why they don't just allow any modem. Sometime they support some modems only is certain areas. On the cable modem the most important consideration is that it is on the list of modems the ISP supports for your house. Xfinity/comcast is our internet provider.ĭo you all have any recommendations? I was looking at the Motorola MB 8600 or MB 8611 for a cable modem, and a TP-Link AXE5400 router?ĭo you all have any recommendations? I would prefer to keep the purchase below $225ish. I am getting 480 Mbps from my cell (galaxy 21FE) and 560 Mbps on my laptop which are about 20 feet from the wireless router. There is 1 brick wall plus 2 walls for wireless signals to travel thru to the furthest bedroom. The original part of the home (the longer part of the "L") is made of brick - and get maybe 2.4Mbps at the furthest 2 Bedrooms away from the current location of our cable modem and wireless router. We live in an L shaped home where the cable access point is at the shorter part of the "L" where the living room, tv, 3 laptops, and stereo system is located. So we are now in the market for a new GB modem and WiFi 6e Wireless Router. Spouse just signed us up fo 1 GB service.
