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
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
Yes, the type of WiFi adapter does matter, especially for gaming, but you don’t necessarily need to go for the most expensive option. Certainly, nothing beats an Ethernet connection, yet, but a good wireless router paired with a compatible WiFi client device can achieve a stable performance as long as you limit the amount of … Read more
The TP-Link EAP610-Outdoor was developed to showcase the advantages of the WiFi 6 features in an outdoor setting and, while it may seem as a replacement to the CPE series (WiFi 5), I am more inclined to believe that it’s part of a potentially new series with a different goal in mind. TP-Link EAP610-Outdoor Amazon.com … Read more
When having trouble getting a good performance from your wireless router or access point, the first settings that people usually change is the WiFi channel. And it makes sense considering that it may be just a bit ‘too crowded’, so change the number, save and the WiFi speed should come back to life, right? It … Read more
If we were to follow the values on the router boxes, the most suitable channel width for 5GHz would be 160MHz, with every other setting pushed to the maximum (including the transmit power). And, while I won’t deny that it’s entirely possible to see a better throughput this way, these overhyped features and inflated numbers … Read more
The FS S3150-8T2FP has a lot in common with the FS S3410-10TF-P, which was the junior member of the L2+ fully managed Pro series and, besides the robust software features (plus the similarity with Cisco equipment), it was also able to handle quite a few PoE+ devices. FS S3150-8T2FP FS.COM Check Product The FS S3150-8T2FP … Read more
The correct answer to whether you should change the WiFi AP transmit power depends on the network density and the amount of interference. If you’re in the middle of nowhere, you could have some fun pushing everything to the maximum, but in a crowded area, which includes all cities, you’re going to have a bad … Read more
In most cases, the length of the Ethernet cable will have no effect on the speed (bandwidth and throughput) and I say that because there are very rare cases when people use Ethernet cables longer than 300 feet. And yes, an Ethernet cable that’s longer than that will start experiencing an increased latency, although almost … Read more
