First, there’s a new Cloud-based controller called FitXpress which can be accessed via both a web portal and as … Read more
In light of the current global price hikes for energy, you’re very much justified in worrying about how many Watts your PoE switch actually uses. And, unless you have solar panels to enable your ‘lavish’ lifestyle, you’re going to have a bad time running too many networking devices at the same time, especially if they’re … Read more
The TP-Link EAP610 is one of the most compact members of the WiFi 6 access points series that the manufacturer has made available as an alternative to the Ubiquiti UAPs. And, while not as well equipped as the EAP660 HD or the EAP670, the TP-Link EAP610 still has a similar set of features that should … Read more
The IGMP Proxying is a clever way of taking the strain out of a router when dealing with multiple devices that use multicast. And the way it reduces this strain is by intercepting the IGMP traffic from multiple users which either wish to join or leave the multicast group and then the proxy behaves as … Read more
The TP-Link EAP670 is kind of like the bigger brother of the EAP660 HD because it has a nearly identical case, and it doesn’t differ that much in terms of features either. Yes, I know there’s the whole AX3600 vs AX5400 class, so TP-Link beefed up the 5GHz radio band a little bit on the … Read more

Hardware-wise, the routers used to last for a very long time, close to a decade or … Read more
The Ubiquiti U6-Pro is part of the sixth generation of UniFi access points and that’s because it was released a bit later than the U6-LR and the U6-Lite, not that it may have a multi-Gigabit port or any other ‘exotic’ feature. It’s still the same gen as the U6-Enterprise which has a 2.5GbE port which … Read more
I do get the question of whether the WiFi 6 routers have better range from time to time and my answer is that some do have a better range than the WiFi 5 router, while some don’t. It’s only normal that an expensive new piece of technology will behave better than an old, battle-scarred router. … Read more
The EnGenius ECW336 is the first WiFi 6E developed by the manufacturer and it can also be considered the current flagship wireless access point considering that the engineers didn’t really hold back when they designed the device. In terms of hardware, there is now a 5GbE port as opposed to the 2.5GbE of the ECW230 … Read more
