I am using a RT-AX56U. I have turned off WiFi6 for the 2.4 ghz band and kept it on for the 5 Ghz band. I do not have any problems with the SB Radio from my wifi network. (However, I do get interference from a neighbor likely using Wi-Fi 6 which affects 2 of my 3 SB Radios.) You can try the new router to see if it works sufficiently. If you have a coverage problem, you can get the second router for the mesh network. I was going to go with a mesh network to replace my two access points, but I found the AX-56U had sufficient coverage and I did not need the mesh network. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ P Nelson's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=58158 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112167 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
