TP-Link has announced that it has developed its first Omada WiFi 7 access points which will make use of some of the newest technologies that were introduced with the new WiFi standard. These include the far wider 320MHz channel bandwidth which can only be used (properly) with the 6GHz radio band. And this is another … Read more
In light of the current global price hikes for energy, you’re very much justified in worrying about how many Watts your PoE switch actually uses. And, unless you have solar panels to enable your ‘lavish’ lifestyle, you’re going to have a bad time running too many networking devices at the same time, especially if they’re … Read more
The TP-Link EAP610 is one of the most compact members of the WiFi 6 access points series that the manufacturer has made available as an alternative to the Ubiquiti UAPs.

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.
