The EnGenius ECW536 is one of the first WiFi 7 access point to enter the market and it’s also one the few to offer some of the most expected features of the new standard out of the box. I am talking about MLO (multi-link operation), a feature which Ubiquiti promises to add at a later … Read more
EnGenius Technologies has recently announced that it will launch their first Cloud WiFi 7 access point series (IEEE 802.11be) with a special focus towards enterprise use. And the first AP from this new series will be the EnGenius ECW536 which is powered by the Qualcomm Networking Pro Series. This platform has been launched a year … Read more
There is an obvious push towards the adoption of the newer WiFi standards, quite often too premature, so it was very curious to see that the EnGenius ECW130, a device recently made available to the general public was actually a WiFi 5 access point.

Although from different generations of UniFi WiFi 6 access points, the Ubiquiti U6-Pro and the U6-LR are regarded as being very similar by the general public. I have tested both access points and, in some instances, the wireless performance is similar on the 5GHz, but they’re still overall different, especially when the client devices are … Read more
I noticed that a lot more people are complaining about slow WiFi now than a few years ago and I guess it’s a bit more difficult to have a stable, well-performing WiFi connection when everyone is broadcasting the wireless router’s signal without doing any site survey. And this phenomenon is the worst in densely populated … Read more
I know that the first thing that everyone’s thinking is to use a WiFi extender to extend the WiFi (I mean, it’s in the name), but this is actually the worst way to do it and it should only be used as the last resort. That is unless you don’t mind less than half the … Read more
The Meraki Go GR12 marks the manufacturer’s entrance into the WiFi 6 access points market and, while a bit later than the other players, just like Ubiquiti, it didn’t really care that much about competition and took its time to offer a potentially better product.

The idea that all access points in your home or office should be on the same channel comes from WDS systems used for bridging multiple APs or for repeating the signal to boost the WiFi farther from the router or main AP. And it’s a bit of an old approach to fixing a problem which … Read more
It really depends on how far you want to extend the WiFi range outside your home. If it’s a few feet into your small backyard, simply changing the position of the router or adding a cheap extender next to the wall should do the trick. But, if you want to cover a far larger area, … Read more
The TP-Link EAP610 and the EAP615-Wall were launched about the same time and, while they’re both AX1800-class wireless access points, they try to achieve slightly different goals. Up to a certain point because the focus still remains on providing a strong and stable throughput over a large area. Even so, while the EAP610 is your … Read more
