You need to look up what tri band actually means - it doesn't mean that it works with 'tri-band devices', nor does it mean it's the 'best of the best'. It means the Mesh network has a dedicated back channel, which is a big advantage over dual band Mesh kits that eat into your usable bandwidth.

[@chrisf5475]

Yep haha… think I’ll stop at this point and go and find a review by somebody who knows what they are talking about 🤦‍♂️

[@ianburton9223]

Just what I was looking for. This answers all my questions - now I'm ready to buy the MW12.

[@MrTrickydisco]

Isn't it megabits /second (Mbps) rather than Megabytes / second ? (MBps)

It's possible to connect all with Ethernet?

How do I change the security settings on this to WPA2?

[@ikaloab6953]

I need from 6 to 9 of them for a big house. Do you know if I'll be able connect all of them?... and still get good results?

[@TechforTechs]

most i have used is 6, and not had any issues with them

[@Valnjes]

@@TechforTechs So i can buy two sets of MW12 (3 pack) and use them in one mesh?

[@TechforTechs]

@@Valnjes yes we use a total of 8 on out work system

[@Valnjes]

@@TechforTechs And only 1 Node is connected with WAN to the Router, and it works fine? From the manual, the MW12 should work with up to 12 Nodes! Thank you!

[@ikaloab6953]

@@Valnjes If you connect more than 1 cable to your switch/router/modem then you´ll have 2 separate networks (yeah that bad… other brands keep you the same network and just make your network more stable). I couldn´t tell if they´ll work fine (3+). I´m currently using only 3 of them (3+ wks) 10m apparat from each other (per tech. service advice), no doors, no interference and it´s driving me nuts. Certainly won´t buy more of them. Random disconnects for a few seconds, not big deal since it´s twice a day (this won´t happen if you´re connected to the main node). After 2wks of calls with “tech.” service and 7 factory resets (to all 3 nodes) I´ve decided to give up and get an Ethernet cable to my room (PS5, work laptop). I´d say it´s a cheap solution for a normal user (TVs, cellphones) and will still fail (E.G. my brother wasn´t aware of this issues, everything was good for him until got COVID-19 and it´s now all day in his room). Turn off the function to switch quickly between nodes that will save you a lot of headaches. A sad thing is that you need to select at least 1 day for "maintenance restart/setup" (no way to turn it off…) the first time for me it crashed... luckly I set it to saturday 3am so even when Alexa remainders, IP cameras, ring door and smart switches failed (30+ devices) it wasn´t critical for me (sunday)… wouldn´t try to schedule it during the week. Now… when it works… it´s beautiful :)… just wish it was stable.

I need it for a garage 20m at the other end of the garden. Thanks to your video, I'm getting the MW12 (currently £189 on Amazon) instead of MW6 (£99).

[@dancazacu5096]

Hold on, I thought tri-band refers to the fact that two bands are used for clients - one 2.4 ghz, one 5ghz, and the remaining band was used for wifi over-haul so that the speed does not gets cut in half for each next node.

[@tasmedic]

Right on! However, I think I was taught that the third channel is "backhaul", but I could be wrong.

[@dancazacu5096]

@@tasmedic you're right! I was using the wrong term, thanks for clearing that up!

[@BeateSchwarck]

How would we be able to setup the WIFI Channel? We have 2 sets but the 6 have different WIFI Channels

[@nazrulhadi6467]

Can I mix MW12 with MW6?

[@AravindBalaji98]

What is the maximum speed it supports in Mbps ?

[@shakrabani1098]

Can you connect different nova type nodes?

[@javitromp]

hi thanks for your video. I am trying to connect all the cubes via cable to the router via RJ45. (I have the house wired) but it does not work. it's possible? or does it only work connecting 1 of them by cable and the rest by wifi?

[@kevoneone]

Can you hardwire them all together

[@paulkeitch401]

Do you need to put the router into modem mode or leave it as it is, I have a Virgin HUB 3.

[@TechforTechs]

most people leave it as it it, that way if the nova system goes down you can easily connect to the router

[@happykid04]

The biggest problem on this device is that, you cannot change the security settings from WPA to WPA2.

[@brianholden3344]

I was looking for a review of the MW12, fantastic review thanks for uploading :) Just need to buy this set now!

[@karmascotland8]

Very nice and thorough review/setup! Many thanks! :-)

[@gfrancaguimaraes]

Hey!!! Can I create a mesh system with Ac23 ou Ac11?

[@erdi4534]

Which WiFi Channels does that WiFi Mesh system use in both frequencies?

[@danielmiller7245]

compatible broadband speed seems low, 500mbs on the MW12, where current FTTP is 900. dopes that mean it will not be capable of internet D/L over 500?

[@krsd44]

Hi - thanks for the look around of the product. In the future can you include an overview of the admin menus and a like for like comparison between competitor models in the same product category (asus/linksys etc) rather than BT hubs... Otherwise it becomes 26 mins of marketing guff.

[@sardomnumspa]

GREAT job man! Thanks!

[@psarasma]

Hi. If i connect all of the AP direct to router, will the roaming function work? Thanks

[@TechforTechs]

This is not something we have done but I cannot see why it would not work. best contacting them to make sure

[@brianwu4197]

my phone keeps on connecting to 2.4g after moving to the other mesh wifi and i need to reconnect my wifi so that i could stay on 5g wifi. So how can i solve this problem

[@tropicaltanklover2160]

Purchase another brand of mesh system that is what I had to do.

[@aleques]

It advertises IPv6 support, but with mw6 I had to put it in bridge mode and lose most of the cool stuff. Can anyone confirm this works with IPv6 e.g. in pppoe mode?

[@tasmedic]

18.07. Hang on, isn't a ping of zero better than a ping of 18? So, isn't the BT hub the better connection?

[@paolocoletti3424]

No because the BT Hub LAN was too far away ie: the cable couldn't reach 12m so rather than ZERO it should really be N/A for ping. A ping of ZERO is theoretically impossible also as there is no such thing as 'instantaneous' connection to ones service providers hub.

[@GolosinoAdventure]

Thanks you very much! Easy to instal and great device

[@Rich-zn6et]

Very helpful

[@mateuszmarczak3152]

From my point of view list of available settings is a joke. No DMZ, No DHCP server settings at all, view of connected devices is so poor (not even IP address of the device doesn't show at general view).

[@krsd44]

I was looking for more information on the admin side as well.

[@yongbu8092]

Great

[@ANtrah]

NO VLAN

[@toffee1889]

Piece of junk , don't buy. Keeps booting devices off.
