I purchased the R8000 Nighthawk wayyy back in September 2016... and it's been running great since then. We have our living room smart TV on it, two smartphones, our home security control panel, and our thermostat on wifi. I positioned the Nighthawk carefully on a wood two-drawer filing case, and it provided excellent coverage for our smallish requirements. No buffering at all when using the Internet on our TV in the adjoining living room; no issues at all for almost six years, now (June 2022). When I bought it, others were asking if it was about to take off -- were those antennas propellers? Yes, it doesn't seem to matter how those things are pointed, so I keep all six pointed up. Great video -- looking at it two years hence.

I went with the Netgear Orbi AC3000 this year as with COVID and working from home all the time, I wanted to ensure a robust connection. It works amazingly. I have the one router and one satellite and it covers my 3 floor house (~2000 sq ft) without issue. Amazing how many devices we have once you add in the IoT items. I believe we are around 30 or so, from phones and tablets, laptops and iMacs, PS5, Xbox, TVs, thermostat, cameras, etc. And I’m always happy to see a fellow Toronto person have such a good channel.

I would like to point out that video games do not worry much about download or upload speed much more about ping. If you notice ping goes from 4 ms to 1ms then to 24ms so for gamers the booster would be the best for them. Speed speed speed is all people want to sell because it is easy to show big numbers and the leave out ping which is how quickly the devices can send packets to each other. So the mesh is 24 times slower sending info back and forth. Really when it boils down to it the non boosted 10 down is 6 times faster communication than the mesh so it would be better than the mesh for gaming. It is true if you are doing massive uploads or downloads speed is best but not for gaming or anything that requires quick packet transactions. This has some good info but just not what I would consider to be the most accurate info. If you made it this far through my rambling thanks for reading.

[@AliAhmad-gr6hk]

What do you recommend. I agree with you. I was using a net gear nighthawk router modem combo and I had 500mbs internet. My wife was always around 60-90mps and if wired my PS will get around 250 and 5ghz will give me around 300. Then I used a modem with mesh system and I see huggggge numbers close to 500 but the quality of connection I’m not impressed by it. Makes me think my old method was better despite the low speed. I’m a gamer too and I need 3000 sq feet coverage.

[@jdubad2a]

@@AliAhmad-gr6hk what is your ping or latency usually measured in ms or millisecond? I'm not sure what the PlayStation caps download or if it does. I'm not sure what mesh network you went with but it is definitely somewhere you do not want to be cheap. Running a cable through the attic or crawl space will always be the best to direct plug. But with good latency your lower speeds should be fine as far as gaming but in this instance it sounds like you have interference somewhere in-between your router and device. Sometimes simply moving the devices can help. An example of this would be hvac vents in the wall between the devices so moving one of them or both a couple foot could drastically help. Also making sure that the channel that your router is on could help by making sure there aren't other devices on the same channel. Network optimization can be easy if you hook up and everything is perfect but when you have to troubleshoot it gets rough. I usually tell people think like you have a string from device a to device b you can't avoid walls but look at other things that could be blocking your signal. I hope this helps.

Fun Fact:Every one in this video has slow WiFi

[@GayleGrantDocGrant]

This is about extending WiFi coverage, not getting more speed. You will only get what you purchase from the ISP!!

[@cr03bar]

Exactly.

[@stubones]

It's simple. If you aren't good good signal in a certain location you won't get the speed "you purchased from your ISP". If you boost the signal to that area you get faster internet. Don't try to be clever, it's not working.

[@stubones]

@@cr03bar No, not "exactly" you moron. Weak signal = slower speeds. Strong signal = faster speeds closer to what you are paying for. Duh.

[@onehourmusicbc]

True statements about the netgear. After purchasing the netgear to expand my router signal my big box retailer recommended additional devices because the signal periodically dropped in the far corners of the house. I wish the big box retailer had explained this to my wife and I last fall. Good work Deal Guy!

[@maximpotekhin766]

The main culprit in slow connection situation is simply the CPU in the router being overloaded due to too many WiFi clients connecting in the house, since there is encryption/decryption going at all times. If you manage to connect some data-hungry devices via a wired connection, this could be a huge help. There are often monitoring options in the router menu, so one needs to check the CPU usage to make sure it's suspect.

[@UnitedHomeExperts]

Would you ever connect one of these mesh networks after a router or does that defeat the purpose?

[@richardgodshaw]

@@UnitedHomeExperts that's exactly what I did oh, I have a router that receives the internet in the house and then I set up from the router the mesh Network. Today my house technically has three networks, the router Network, a guest Network that is done through the mesh Network and then the mesh Network where I have full access for myself. I have found it worked incredibly well and I have no dead spots in my home. From most of my research, they all perform pretty similar and I bought a different router Network for my parents, that was cheaper than the Google Wi-Fi that I bought and they love it.

As a network professional, have to question your speed test results unless you were on complete separate ISPs.

[@mhzprayer]

This is what I thought too...all your "boost" can do is remove any external delays that you have introduced by moving too far from the main router. Also remember devices (laptops, routers, cables, etc) have specs/limits so ensure you have the necessary hardware all along the chain to achieve the speed you're trying for. Boost is not gonna give you any better than being in the same room with the main router, unless you end up switching to hard-wired and then comparing numbers against wifi.

You can't get any faster than your ISP is providing you with what you are paying for. If you are paying for 123 mbps up and down you will get that. Boosting the signal will not increase that. I believe it is smoke and mirrors. If it sounds too good to be true it probably is.

The WiFi at home brought in each home a staggering fog of EMF from all the neighbors Which is bad for health. Every individual with basic knowledge knows that living cells are polarized and should know that in every cell, the shape and function of amino acids are driven electrically. Furthermore, the command for proteins to reveal the genes within the ADN to the copying machine (mARN) - to create millions of cells daily is driven electrically (not chemically). Therefore, any EMF around affects these fine processes and then people are innocently wondering "Where did I get this cancer from?". Because the proteins that cover the cancerous genes - present in each and every DNA structure of each and every individual - are driven to expose the cancerous genes, which are then read by the mARN reader, which finally builds oncogenic cells. So Homo Sapiens, for the commodity to not pull an Ethernet cable at home, have built a toxic EMF medium in which his health is daily endangered. but because the effects are seen later, in years, nobody gives a buck on this issue. This is not a conspiracy theory, it is simple bio-logics. More and more powerful Wi-Fi modems are sold, to cover more and more areas, and people pay attention only to the speed (bandwidth in fact). I worked in a radio station filled with radio equipment and what was written there in the Security procedures was thrilling, despite the fact they were less accurate and complete - because of the telecommunication industry interests. Use an Ethernet cable, and a switch for more computers. It is faster, reliable, and most importantly, does not damage health.

[@portman8909]

It's really up to the ISP how much bandwidth you get. Since I had issues my bandwidth got throttled and I lost 8 mbps. I had to wait 4 months to get it all back...

[@rickm3693]

I currently have 124 devices connected in my home. I have a 1Gb (up and down) fiber to the home connection with a static IP address. I use a number of various Ubiquiti mesh devices throughout the property. I use a router (Nighthawk R9000) connected directly to the ONT so that I can easily assign specific port addresses to each individual connected item. That stops any possible port conflicts which tend to happen if you allow the router to assign port numbers rather than having them static with so many devices. I plan to eventually go to a Ubiquiti Dream Machine rather than use a standard router. Just haven't gotten around to it yet.

Great video! Thank you so much for sharing your views.

Let's say I would like to create 2 different channels, 1 for Gaming and 1 for all other devices, and then on the Gaming channel, I would dedicate let's say 60% of my bandwidth. The "Other Devices" channel would be dedicated the remaining 40%. In that way, the "Other Devices" consume their own bandwidth and do not interfere with my "Gaming Channel". Is there any router or any setup that can do this? If yes, then what router would you mostly recommend please? Thanks in advance for your much appreciated response!

In the US, spectrum routers come standard with a two channel setup. We keep a his & here setup as there are limits to the number of things we each do at one time and slow speeds are never the fault of the other person. When we have guests, I load them to my channel as my husband uses his for work.

Quite a good showcase of modern WiFi tech and an incentivization to upgrade one's wireless network at home. A couple of sidenotes of my own: for apartment dwellers it might be a good move to upgrade for a WiFi 6 capable home router/mesh system because of the new measures in the protocol to combat frequency congestion from other access points (i.e. wifi from neighbours scrambles your wifi as well as the other way around). Also, the rule "wire up everything that can and should be wired up" (i.e. limit wifi to handhelds/devices without an Ethernet port, and hook up stationary devices through Ethernet - either through cabling or PLC/mesh access points; USB-Ethernet dongles also might be useful, for example - for Nintendo Switch's dock station) still does apply, and in the case of mesh systems hooking up "satelite stations" to the "router station" will boost their performance even further.

The best router I’ve ever used is the “Netgear Nighthawk R8000” I had Spectrum 400 mbps package. Using a Arris Surfboard 6183 with the Nighthawk and with a few changes in the settings of the arris sb6183 my WiFi speed average speed is 620 mbps - 680 mbps. I have a big house and the signal is 5 bars no matter where I’m at. I loose signal outside my house when I get around 200 yards away. No signal boosters or repeaters. If your needing a router than get the Nighthawk R8000! I have 2 lap tops, 3 xboxes, 3 cell phones, 2 iPads connected and I’ve ran speed test while all of those devices were connected just to see how much it would slow down the WiFi speed and it never dropped below 600 mbps.

I have a 3,200 sq ft single-story house. I am using an ASUS AX6000 MESH router. I have 18 devices connected to the network. My download speed is 865 Mbps and my upload speed is 948 Mbps. I am running a 1 Gbps fiber connection to the house.

Hello Matt !! Team Bagnasco here ♥ What is the difference between (1) a mesh and (2) a good Linksys Router with two (solid/good) "extensions" (access points? Thank you! Andre

[@douglassalley9117]

I liked the difference with the booster! I live in a single wide mobile home. That seemed like a good choice for me. I only have 4 or 5 items that stays on all the time, until my grandchildren come over, then usage will double or more. I went to Hulu. + live TV +disney for $50.00 less then direct TV. Wear would you plug a booster in at? The same outlet my modem/rounter is plugged in or in different outlet in the same room? My grandson set me up two weeks ago and ever thing is good. Twice I had a msg come on the screen saying, "my internet was too slow". I just turned it off and waited a few minutes and it was OK.

[@peggywells8581]

In future videos, could you wrap up with a review of what you covered. By the time you got to the end, I knew I needed something you mentioned earlier on, but I couldnt recall exactly what it was.

[@04DynaGlyde]

Matt, Please revisit this in 2023! I have probably 10+ devices within a give or take 7000 sqft area. This includes the yard for wifi cameras. There are extenders, repeaters, bridges, usb antennas, and mesh wifi systems. This is all so confusing. The main issue is that my outdoor cameras are buffering and not getting enough speed also my Amazon Recast TV and Fire Cube are having wifi issues. I tried the TP link deco p9 mesh system. Come to find out the only one working out if the 3. Was the one plugged into my routers ethernet port. The thing I read about mesh is that when plugged into a wall outlet. The other mesh towers that are plugged in have to be on the same breaker for the mesh wifi to work. Meaning electrical wiring in your wall to main breaker panel. Also, with an extender for it to work best, the device needs to be plugged into the routers ethernet port using a long cable for the device needing better wifi signal. Please help me fix my outdoor cameras and Amazon Recast TV and Fire Cube issues without breaking the banks.

Great Video! I like how you presented it. Only one comment, Your IP address & ISP in the first and second "speedtest" is the same, but the third 900+ is different IP & ISP. And you didn't mention the bandwidth you are getting from each ISPs (Bell Canada & Rogers) Thank you for the video, it is informative.

[@ShirlBussman]

You caught an oops ! 🤣

[@williamgilmore4554]

I need a simple recommendation for increasing my speed like you demonstrated at the beginning of this video.

[@deasttn]

Reset your equipment and install newest firmware

[@jaluepo]

My internet speed has not improved after watching this video.

[@christinalee7985]

Thank you so much Matt. Our Netgear nitehawk just shutdown a few days ago, we are in a very old two story home with attic finished and many devices and I never knew about the mesh system. thank you so much. We have prolly well over 30 devices. Thanks again.

[@jag2944]

Thanks. I’ll look into that mesh system. 👍🏽

[@lawrencekdog6243]

Great video but unless i missed it, you left out some information, such as, what is the internet speed coming into your home, is it at 90, or 300? And also, why were you only getting 15-16 at your device, is your router extremely far from your pc? is your router not capable of giving the internet speed that your ISP is providing? How did using a booster up your speed so dramatically unless the speed was always there in the first place. Pretty sure that since I pay for exactly 40 mbps, that I am not going to get more form the ISP simply because I install a booster or a mesh network. If I am wrong someone please explain--and thanks.

[@e.workman4051]

Congrats on the 700k subs man!!! Love your content

[@jeffsepp1]

Do you use both a booster and mesh? The video got a little confusing there. Cheers from Mount Albert, ON

[@a47mlb]

Matt, what booster did you turn on at first??

[@keithhimstedt6870]

I was thinking the same thing. Was watching and he said he would get into the booster but went into MESH and never came back to the booster. I already have ORBI but not getting that kind of jump from it. Was hoping a booster really exists.

[@paulmontemayor5802]

Wow wish I saw this when you originally put it out. I have 98 devices in my house and growing. I guess I need to upgrade to a mesh network

[@gl8282]

Such an energetic presentation. I am looking at 30+ connections.

[@davidwilliams4484]

Very interesting and informative. Since you are in broadcasting of sorts, you need better modulation or your volume. Your volume goes from a good level, to hard to hear.

[@johnwolf1475]

so you get internal speed increase and choked at the modem going through the wall? you can only go as fast as the weakest link no?

[@strongisland7015]

You get a wireless signal “boost”. The TP extender extends your weak wireless signal so you get the better speeds that you pay for. Buy a good mesh system or a good wireless router and you won’t need to “boost” or extend your WiFi signals. You’ll be just fine.

[@eurielruiz2480]

My friend thanks for your wonderful advice I have a question about 360° video security camera for a car ?

[@onlyme6479]

Don't matter what you have you only get what you pay for if you pay for 100 Mbps that's what you get. You will not get 850 Mbps period

[@ottoteck]

Thank you. I will check out your .com . Im not very tech but Im not uneducated so I learned from you. Thanks.

[@karolynmorales3795]

Thank you so much for this video I needed this but a question does it matter what type of plan you have for your WiFi through the provider?

[@eb6195]

ditto, yes

[@strongisland7015]

Find out what you’re paying for through your ISP. If you’re paying for 100mbps down and 25mbps upload, and your wireless router is only giving you 20mbps down you might need a better a router or you can try to buy the extender to better the signal to get the better speeds.

[@lettienugent]

Hi Matt, Two things. 1. FYI: In this video, the audio goes from supper quiet, to very loud and back again, several times. I had to keep readjusting the volune either because it seemed like you were shouting, or because it soundling like you were whispering. 2. I have something called a JetPack by Verizon. It fits in my pocket, and gives me internet almost anywhere I go. Negatives: On any day, at any time, the signal strength changes, and I find myself relocating the device from one room to another trying to find a place where it will give me at least 3 bars. Would the gadgets you presented in this video, help me with the JetPack? Or should I go to standard internet service?

[@JJFlores197]

Your Verizon Jetpack connects to cell phone towers. None of this will really help you since the main problem appears to be the connection between the hotspot and the cell tower. I would personally look into getting a standard internet service if possible. That should be more stable than using mobile internet.

[@lettienugent]

@@JJFlores197 Thank you

[@102179mark]

I've got 72 devices connected at any given moment.

[@102179mark]

@Mannie Illescas not sure what you mean by that.

[@machellemcneill5743]

This is a very informative video. What are the options for people who use a hotspot for their Wi-Fi service?

[@rose8662]

This was so excellent. Thanks so much! Recently discovered your channel and subscribed right away! 💖

[@TheLifetraveler1]

Another way to maintain internet speed! I have an older router in the closet. When I have guests and family here, I connect that older, slower router (with a different wifi name) to one of the ports on my high speed router. Therefore, I end up with two networks. The one I use which is faster, so I get most of the speed and bandwidth juice. My guests still get reasonable speed (for their needs), but a slower amount of bandwidth juice. When they leave, I disconnect the older router. That way I go back to just one network. The other advantage of this is, that since the slower router has its own password, your house guest NEVER have the password to the router you use normally. I'm not saying you should do this. But if you are real friendly with a neighbor, who is having a hard time financially, this would be a way to share your internet, without them having your main password. I wouldn't do that, my neighbor all have wifi, but there a lot people who are a lot more kind hearted than me. The risk to that, is you don't know what websites your neighbor is visiting, which could pull malware and infections, into your main system. Why? Because the guest router, is tied to your main router. Anything being consumed on the guest router, is passing through your main one.
