I didn't even know there was a difference. Due to this video I have seen we use WiFi 6 as 2.4 is currently set as frequency

Your wifi router link doesn't work but great video! Your other videos are great too. Subbing!

Nice, wish I could see this in iOS without going to settings

Yeah, it's really nice how samsung phones show the little 6 on the wifi icon if you're connected to a wifi 6 router.

Just got a Linksys AX1500 WIFI 6 router for $39 a few days before this video was released. I kinda trust Linksys more than TP-Link and like the setting menu better. I could be completely wrong to believe that and not an expert, so trust the expert.

Wow that’s a great deal! Yes the user interface is much easier to navigate on Linksys routers I find

@@techindex1 If I may suggest, make a video on WIFI 7 routers with comparison with 6 and 5. They are still new and expensive, meaning much higher payout from affiliate sales for you. And it's a new thing, so more people will search about them. Also touch on the mesh network topic, as I'm sure even less people know much about it. You're videos are very well put together and informative, but make sure they also sell you affiliate products. Feel free to delete this comment after reading, as this kind of advice is not for everyone to see.

Linksys used to be great, but these days they're garbage. I've heard ASUS routers are the way to go these days if you're looking for an off the shelf all-in-one. My own personal preference is to build my own router using pf/opnSense and dedicated WAP(s). Much more flexible and reliable. Gives you the option to upgrade each individual component of the system independently rather than throwing the whole thing in the garbage and replacing it any time you want to upgrade any part of it. It's pretty much just as easy as setting up an off the shelf solution, and ends up being cheaper and easier in the long run to keep it up to date. You'll never again need to configure a whole new device just to upgrade your Wifi or link speeds or add new features. Trust me, it's the right way to go.

@@Zaphod0414 Asus are probably the third most popular brand on Amazon, which backs up your theory. But they are the most-expensive of the first 3 too. I guess for a reason. And since Linksys are currently the cheapest, that backs up your second theory that they are subpar. Building one myself is way above my head. I never came across tutorials for how to do it. Didn't even know that's possible. It's only easy for you because you know this stuff and have the time. But I personally wouldn't spend a week trying to figure it out and troubleshoot it, instead of buying one for $50.

We just got 100mbps fiber optic because we don’t need fast internet. We first agreed to lease ziply’s router with wifi6 but we have a linksys EA7450 lying around that we own. Does it really matter at this low of speed if we can get same internet speed in our townhouse? I’m thinking I just return the Ziply equipment. Thoughts?

@techindex1 6 ай бұрын

At this kind of speed you're less likely to notice a difference in speed but you may notice the increased range if its a larger house. If you can I'd test out both before sending one back

Have you tested it. I do have the same scenario as like @jeff_yeom. Thanks in advance.
