The Linksys MR7350 Max-Stream Mesh Wi-Fi 6 Router is the budget version of the MR9600. Other than the lesser hardware specs and, therefore, the much lower cost, it’s the same as its big cousin. What’s most significant, it makes official the fact that all new and likely future Linksys routers …
Of all Wi-Fi 6 routers from Netgear I’ve tested, the Nighthawk AX6 6-Stream AX5400 Wi-Fi 6 Router (model RAX50) is the easiest recommendation. It has the right balance of performance, features, and cost. This eye candy Wi-Fi machine doesn’t include everything you can collectively find in a high-end router. That’s …
The ZenWiFi AX Mini (model XD4) is ASUS’s third purpose-built AiMesh Wi-Fi system, after the XT8 and CT8, and it turned out to be the most complete one in my testing. So, the third time seems to be the charm, and that’s the good news. The bad is this mesh …
I can’t figure out what the D-Link intends to achieve with the DIR-X1560 EXO AX1500 Wi-Fi 6 router. At around $100, this entry-level router sure is not the most affordable among its Wi-Fi 6 peers. Yet, it’s not the most valuable due to a spartan set of features. The biggest …
The TP-Link Archer AX11000 MU-MIMO Tri-Band Gaming Router looks like a duck. It tries super-hard to walk like a duck. But it can’t swim, nor does it quack. So chances are it probably still is a chicken. OK, it’s neither, but the point is this new high-end Wi-Fi 6 router …
It’d make sense if you think you can just cut the Archer AX50‘s performance in half to figure out the Archer AX10. But you’d be so wrong. Indeed. The AX10, an AX1500 router, proved to be a strong performer in my testing, rivaling the AX50 and other AX3000 routers to …
The ASUS RT-AX3000 (as well as its RT-AX58U variant) is among the most affordable Wi-Fi 6 routers in the market, and that’s the least interesting thing about it. This little Wi-Fi machine delivers a lot more than its compact design suggests. It has a ton of useful features and support …
The Archer AX50 is the international and better variant of the slightly stripped-down Archer AX3000 TP-Link made exclusively for Walmart in the U.S late last year. Since the two are so similar, I had a pleasant surprise finding out how better the AX50 is via testing. It’s not only faster …
The Deco X60 AX3000 Mesh System, TP-Link’s latest Wi-Fi 6 mesh system, is a great deal or a disappointing choice, depending on how you plan to use it. On the one hand, the new system is super easy to use and has a hardware design that allows you to place it anywhere. On the …
It’s a bit of an irony to call the TP-Link Archer AX6000 well-rounded, but that’s true. The router has a lot to offer. With eight Gigabit LAN ports and a sub-$300 price tag, the Archer AX6000 intends to compete against the ASUS RT-AX88U. And in my testing, it proved to …
