Today, the networking vendor unveils the all-new Omada AX1800 Wi-Fi 6 Desktop GPON Access Point, or EAP610GP-Desktop for short. If you’re a fan of TP-Link’s Omada access point and just don’t want to have to drill holes into a wall to mount the hardware, this new AP will be right …
The EBA63 is not a huge deal in terms of Wi-Fi. In fact, it’s rather dated in specs, supporting the mid-tier AX3000 Wi-Fi 6. However, it’s the first standalone access point of ASUS’s new ExpertWiFi family and features Power over Ethernet (PoE), something previous hardware of the same specs, such …
The EnGenius EWS850-FIT (once EWS850AP) is a standalone outdoor Wireless Wi-Fi 6 access point (WAP) and differs significantly from the previous cloud-based ECW230. And that’s a good thing. EnGenius announced the EWS850AP in early 2020 and started shipping in February 2021. In early November 2022, the company launched a new …
At the current street price of $150, the EnGenius EWS377-FIT is an excellent alternative to the ECW230 released two years ago. Not only is it significantly more affordable, but it’s also more flexible. The new access point can work as a standalone broadcaster for any existing network, or you can …
Some two years after the release of the RP-AX56U range extender, ASUS finally made available the better version, the RT-AX58U. This brief take will compare the two and help you decide which to get. But if you are in a hurry, the RP-AX58U is an easy pick, considering it comes …
This Omada EAP670 vs. EAP610 matchup represents the top and bottom tiers of TP-Link’s Wi-Fi 6 business access points (APs). They replace the EAP245 and other Wi-Fi Wi-Fi 5 variants. The EAP670 is a top-tier broadcaster, and the EAP610 is entry-level. Other than the differences in hardware specs and physical …
Zyxel NWA220AX-6E is one of a kind, not necessarily in a good way. On the one hand, it’s an affordable well-performing PoE access point that can work as a standalone unit or part of Zyxel’s cloud-based Nebula mesh system—you’d need to register an account and log in with the vendor. …
Generally, I’m not a fan of Wi-Fi extenders, and, on the one hand, the TP-Link RE715X AX3000 Mesh WiFi 6 Extender embodies everything I don’t like about this type of “quick fix” Wi-Fi broadcaster. On the other, it has a couple of things going for itself, namely the support for …
The TRENDnet TEW-921DAP AX1800 dual-band Wi-Fi 6 PoE+ access point is an expensive version of the entry-level NETGEAR WAX214. It has more to offer and costs almost double at around $150. Neither will give you much to brag about in performance; both are modest hardware. As wireless access points, they …
At the current price of around $380 a pop, the Zyxel WAX630S wireless access point (WAP), available for purchase today, is not cheap. But it still costs significantly less than EnGenius ECW230 while delivering a similar experience. Truth be told, just like the EnGenius counterpart, the WAX630S represents a section …
