Thanks, I was looking at the RT-AX86U as it looks to be better:-

RT-AX82U

Processor – 1.5 GHz tri-core processor
Memory – 256 MB Flash
512 MB RAM

Data Rates – 802.11a : 6,9,12,18,24,36,48,54 Mbps
802.11b : 1, 2, 5.5, 11 Mbps
802.11g : 6,9,12,18,24,36,48,54 Mbps
802.11n : up to 300 Mbps
802.11n (1024 QAM) : up to 500 Mbps
802.11ac (1024 QAM) : up to 4333 Mbps
802.11ax (2.4GHz) : up to 574 Mbps
802.11ax (5GHz) : up to 4804 Mbps

 

RT-AX86U

Processor – 1.8 GHz quad-core processor
Memory – 256 MB Flash
1GB RAM

Data Rates – 802.11a : 6,9,12,18,24,36,48,54 Mbps
802.11b : 1, 2, 5.5, 11 Mbps
802.11g : 6,9,12,18,24,36,48,54 Mbps
802.11n : up to 450 Mbps
802.11n (1024 QAM) : up to 750 Mbps
802.11ac (1024 QAM) : up to 4333 Mbps
802.11ax (2.4GHz) : up to 861 Mbps
802.11ax (5GHz) : up to 4804 Mbps

i.e better CPU, ram, wifi speed is faster and I presume the RT-AX86U is newer than the ART-X82U?

Will that be compatible on BT infinity in UK? I’m looking online but not seen any posts of people using it with draytek 130 so just want to be sure it will work so can add to my list of options.

Thanks
