For any kid who loves the Minions, these would be a workable router hidden in plain sight within their room, assuming they have a dedicated Ethernet port to jack them into. Some modern homes are offering Ethernet lines as part of their package to get around walls weakening WiFi, and some techie homeowners might put in lines themselves or request it during construction.

@paradoxmo 21 день назад

Most new homes are wired for Ethernet in some way. Basically where they used to wire phones, they wire RJ45 jacks anyway, since they are compatible with RJ11. What you do with them in the comms closet is up to you and your ISP, some could be networked and some could be normal phone service or VoIP out of your VoIP supporting router.

The pickup pattern being vertical makes a lot of sense for a Korean manufacturer. A majority of their demographic would live in apartment buildings and the users wouldn't want a lot of interference / signal aimed from their neighbours.

@devnol 21 день назад

very interesting observation!

@agarceran 21 день назад

It is precisely worse with an appartment building, because you are bothering more people in a vertical setting and more so if you consider the total number of potential walls vs floors. An appartment can have more than one wall from the center to the neightbours but will only ever be one floor away from the appartment on top or bottom. Granted, corean appartments might be an only room (japanese type?) of appartment but for example, my flat is only one wall on one side from the center of the appartment but 3 walls from the one on the other side! In fact I have more wifi strenght from the neightbours below and upwards than from the ones in the same floor in my case.

@m4ki9h76 21 день назад

Don't test a wireless access point over the internet. Just run iperf3 or similar on one of your local servers and don't have the potential bottleneck. It'd take someone like Jake 15 minutes to set up, tops. After being instructed once, anyone can use it.

@RaxXxvell 21 день назад

To be fair. Not many routers manage bands well at all. Had to deactivate 2.4 on many already. Heck i even had to manually adjust channels because all routers would flock on one channel with 160 to get the max theoretical bandwith just to be ridiculously unstable. Had to manually sit at the left end of the spectrum with 20 mhz width . Lower theoretical limit, but very stable and i actually reached the limit. Algorithms there seem to be really dumb.

@zaydabbas1609 19 дней назад

The antenna gain on the box is labeled to be 5-6dbi, this indicates some pretty strong directionality was to be expected (0dbi is ideally isotropic or perfectly spherical).

@bluegizmo1983 20 дней назад

7:54 THAT!! That right there is exactly why I NEVER allow my routers and access points to use the same SSID for all wifi bands! I always set separate SSID's for 2.4ghz, 5ghz and 6ghz. It's EXTREMELY common for devices to get stuck on 2.4ghz when all bands are on the same SSID, no matter what devices you're using.

@Pyroteq 19 дней назад

The SSID really doesn't make a difference though... Unless you are constantly picking and choosing between different networks manually every time you walk into a different room your device will hold onto a shitty signal regardless - in which case usually just disconnecting then reconnecting will connect at a better speed or to a different AP that has the best signal. I also wouldn't expect a device to switch networks in the middle of a speed test either. I have 5 different APs from different manufacturers all running the same SSID and my phone handles roaming around the house just fine.

I don't think it's an issue with pickup pattern. You've built a freaking Faraday cage around the router with all that metal, electrical gear and wiring and there's much less interference above. No average consumer will have that much interference. You know about interference cause you thought you door was the issue but not the set? Come on Linus

Q: What are the materials of that office you went into? Is it UV protected paned glass? Was there foil-lining or anything with the insulation in the wall?

@Martinspire 21 день назад

So what if you turned it 90 degrees so it lays on the ground. If its really antennas it might be the problem there. Also I doubt it was really a signal-free environment. If it cannot find a channel that works, it might be delaying the speed a lot until it finds one that does (but with LTT there might not be a free one really)

Tinfoil hat time: I think that mainstream home router manufacturers make their software and support as bad as they can while having a mostly functional product to get you as frustrated as possible when you try to reconfigure or troubleshoot something that buying a whole new router suddenly seems like not such a bad idea... Recently had to troubleshoot a node going down momentarily and frequently and the manufacturer of my mesh kit wasn't able to do ANYTHING beyond telling me to unplug things and reset them and then decided to tell me that the issue of their router turning itself off for a split second was the fault of my ISP...

@Razor2048 21 день назад

Odds are likely that they use a few poorly tuned PIFA antenna inside of the WiFi router, and also a low transmit power. One thing the higher end WiFi routers have in common is how they go about improving throughput across a larger coverage ratio, is to focus on a more sensitive RF front end, and a higher transmit power. This because most client devices (many laptops and smartphones that focus on form over function, tend to end up with negative gain antennas, and since power consumption is a huge issue with mobile devices, they often also use a lower transmit power to extend battery life. This is why you will see many quality APs using a full watt transmit power where allowed, and decent antenna gain (often in the 3-5 dBi range), and rely on a good receiver sensitivity and a quality LNA to extend the overall effective range.
