Reply To: ASUS ZenWiFi AX Whole Home Tri-Band Mesh WiFi 6 System Not sure if this is the right place to ask…. I am thinking of upgrading my Google Mesh wifi to the above. Has anyone used this and does it…

@dodgydrains given that the 160MHz is overkill for my 80/20 fttc line, I’ve never had the need to benchmark or bench test it so to speak.

But I have noticed a quirk with regards to it’s behaviour on my setup,

On 5GHz-2, 20/40/80/160 enabled & channel set to auto, (always defaulted to 100) & bandwidth always 80MHz)

But setting a manual channel of  120 & then 100 it did sustain a 160 bandwidth, admittedly I didn’t give the manual selection of channel 100 any time to fully bed in & maybe roll back to 80MHz, but having settled on channel 124, it’s been solid on the 160 bandwidth under it’s own steam, (goes without saying ymmv)

A quirk with respect to Asus, or local environmental conditions here, that’s 1 finding I could never nail down 1 way or the other.

Edit: 4 got 2 mention, always had ethernet connection from node & now running a pair of XT9’s instead of xt8’s
