This is unrelated, But is it worth running kali as a main OS on a old laptop I have laying around rather then running vm. My day to day work is done on my windows 10 desktop I am just trying to find a use for this laptop.
@@alphaturtle4839 Sure you could do that. The only reason to run as a VM is to make it easier to start and use Kali - it's not as disruptive if you only have a single computer.
Out of curiosity, in a real world work environment, would one run Kali on a dedicated computer or is there other benefits to running it a windows environment outside of ease of use?

Thanks David! This is unrelated to the actual content but you did an outstanding job productionwise, the quality is amazing! I guess the next step is to upgrade you home network to 10G now ;-)
I really appreciate that Anthony. Took me a long time to create this video, so glad it was noticed :) Yes....definitely going to have to upgrade the network. Hopefully I can get a vendor to sponsor me.
You can get a Mikrotik Switch with SFP+ connector for about 130 Euros. The only questions is : do you really need it at home ? Gigabit is more than enough for applications and streaming. Moving large files at home is rarely neccessary and urgent. The sata3 bandwith is only 6 Gbps, so you will need Nvme drives on both ends. Quality video as always, i bought David's ccent course on udemy last year, and now i got the whole 200-301 without any additional costs. Such a nice person.
@@basadake Firstly, thank you for the support! I appreciate it. I work with very large video files so 10 gig would be nice. Faster is always better - right? :)
one of the biggest advantage of wi-fi 6 handling multiple clients. Even is your client is not support wi-fi 6 in multiple clients connection senario experience wi-fi 6 differs a LOT
I've seen 760Mbps on my old 802.11 ac AP (Cisco 3802i). with 80Mhz channels. But nearing 900Mbps is clearly better. Now I run a Cisco 9120 AP on 9800 series WLC
@@davidbombal Yeah. I'm running a Cisco 9800CL virtual WLC now. I'm switching to a Cisco 9800L appliance soon, and will increase the routing capacity between the management vlan and the client vlan (where capwap traffic recides). Then I'll be able to see what speeds enterprise Cisco Wifi 6 can give me :) (This is the setup at my home, btw). Really nice video btw. Keep up the good work.
well done !! love when tech support says o yeah your connection is slower than advertised because of overhead:| you should expect 60 to 70% less than advertised speed. this guy maxes out each of his devices capacity
Did you set up DNS for the tests? Or is it automatically? Did you change the channel for WiFi? Not just that but also channel bandwidth? On what mode was the WiFi? Sorry but all these settings also factor into the speed test. I am getting 600 speed on a 1gig plan, on a Xfinity XB6 modem thru my iPhone. I am getting wired 700 speed on my Xbox and 950 speed on my Apple TV.
Nice,i have tested the 11ax IPQ6018 sample board.The throughput is about 1000Mbps.I think the results would be better if we could test it with less interference
Great job David! But with 1Gbps infrastructure you have you can get same results with decent WiFi 5 router. To really feel gain of your WiFi 6 client devices you have to go and use something above of 1Gbps router and your iMac LAN card should be capable too. The simple setup would be thunderbolt to 10Gbps adapter on your apple pc + WiFi 6 router with 10Gbps Lan matching speeds of your thunderbolt 10Gbps adapter. Max fire rate of WiFi 6 is around of 2400Mbps , practically you should expect real results in range of 1500Mbps + ... Great video thumbs up. Will be watching for further 10Gbps Lan upgrade and WiFi testing. 👍
Very good viewing, I would think a wifi6e router would improve these results, as these use the new 6GHz spectrum. You would also need compatible devices though.
Since you demonstrated the distance from the router made a difference for the speed (i.e. the iPhone 11 had a slower connection when closer to the router) shouldn't you be running your test on the other phones at the same exact location on the desktop to do your comparison? The other slower phones were closer to the router which you demonstrated with the iPhone 11 made the connection slower. Granted, the differences between the other phones and the iPhone 11 appear to be greater than changing the positions of the phones might make, but I think it might be interesting to see a follow-up with the phone in the same position on the desktop.
I have a iPhone 11PRO Max and a Essential phone The Essential phone tests 40% faster then th iPhone 11PRO Max with Wi-Fi 6. Yes I have an ASUS RT-AX58U wifi 6 router. Are there any wifi 6 icons to let you know your on wifi 6 like Samsung phones? The Essential is not Wi-Fi 6 compatible but blows the 11PRO Max right out of the water. Thank you Ron G
FYI, the reason why the iPhone 11 was "only" getting around 700 mbps whereas the PC was getting the full 930 mbps (limit of gigabit ethernet) is because the iPhone 11 can only use an 80 MHz channel whereas the router and the Wi-Fi 6 card used in the PC can use a 160 MHz channel. And in the final test the iPhone 11 was only getting 350-400 mbps because it was a wireless-to-wireless connection, which halves the bandwidth available as Wi-Fi is half duplex.
Thank you David. Been thinking about this as I am about to start upgrading my home computers. Most will be wired but for the laptops when I am not at the desk would like nice speeds. Been looking at the Netgear Orbi RBK852 (or the 853)
Hi Dave, I have additional question after watching your most recent video on MAC address adjustments. Connecting iPhone to USB port and using it as Ethernet on Windows PC - doesn’t allow changes to that NIC MAC regardless of what Mac you use in registry network address entry??? From the previous post: Some devices reconnect to iPhone hotspot automatically and others need to be reconnected manually requiring password reentry every time. The very same devices doing just fine connecting to stationary AP/router. What’s at the culprit of the above? 1. Hotspot changing BSSID MAC address every time? 2. Client Device / NIC storing BSSID (only) & password combination of the saved networks vs BSSID +/or BSSID MAC address & password combination? Also, would it be possible to setup router’s WDS in either Bridge or Repeater mode connecting to iPhone’s hotspot? THANK YOU FOR YOUR KNOWLEDGE.
right, the wired connection also need to improve, 1Gbe is not enough, the NAS also going to 2.5Gbe, still the Switch with 10Gbe is much costly ~~ Wifi 6 will be nice with the broadband near 1G
I m still using the ASUS AC68U which has been around for several years.....will buying the latest AC or AX Router give better transmission (AC & N signal) range due to better technology/processing chip? My main router is at the Living room... by the time the signal reaches my gaming /work room the speed drops to around 50-60Mbps
Thank You David for this interesting video. The performance of the new standard is quite amazing. I am very interested to see the results with the 5gig setup. Everyone who think about bying a router from Netgear: think about it twice. They have often security issues and need weeks or months to fix them. I do not want to suggest you other vendors, but Netgear is not the best choice I think.
Thank you. Difficult with home routers as most have poor security. Which vendor would you suggest? I am fortunate in that I use multiple routers / firewalls for my home network from different vendors, but that is not what most people would do.
@@davidbombal I agree with You, its not easy. The only vendor I can suggest for home use is AVM in Germany en.avm.de/products/ They are famous for their good and long term software support. You can buy their Fritzbox in many but countries, but not in all. Actually they have no router with 802.11ax support, but I think it will only last some some moths until they lauch a new product supporting this standard.
Hi David, regarding the test you use iphone11 to the wireless connected PC 10.0.0.4, the throughput result gets halved (400Mb/s), is it because they are 2 wifi6 clients in the network and wireless network is kind of half duplex.
In theory WiFi 6 supports multiple devices sending at the same time (MU-MIMO, OFDMA and other clever tricks). WiFi 6 is supposed to be for high density installations. But, it could be the reason. What they say in theory and what actually happens is often not the same thing.
Finally a guy with a brain doing tests... sick of all these idiots doing useless internet speed tests when they don't have gigabit fibre ... thanks mate
I live in New Zealand and have a fibre connection 1000 Mbp/s down / 500 Mbp/s up and get over 800Mbp/s down on my Wi-Fi 5 connection using a 4 year old Macbook Pro using a Fritzbox 7590 (direct line of site to the router) if other end of the house it's more around 150Mbp/s down and 100 up
Very nice test, professional. in real life people/consumers will not see a noticeable difference. most people having home connections don't even surpass the 100mbps, not to mention internet providers, at least in Europe. Apple released ax in just iPhone 11 and that's only a year old and very expense. it is fair to say that it's safe to wait for 2-3 years (early adoption) before ax potential is better exploited. And if my router failed today I would still get an AC as long as my internet connection does not pass the 100mbps threshold.
Fantastic video, I have a very fast internet connection here in Denmark where I live, I can only get over wifi on my iphone XS something around 400mbps, I did not know that the Iphone XS was not capable to reach near gigabit speed, now I know why :) ......btw I have 1gb connection in my flat and when I connect my Macbook (wire) I can easily reach 990 mbps which is awesome! Thanks!
No, obviously wait for the next generation which can actually get Wi-Fi 6e. It's all about 8x8 antenna and true tri-band Wi-Fi 6 with access to the 6 GHz band. Regular wifi 6 is already antiquated technology in a router.
Why isn't doing a speed test a good test? Most of what I do is downloading from the internet, i.e, streaming of data, gaming etc. For this it's the download speed of your internet connection that matters isn't it?
HELP PLEASE. why my iphone 11 can't detect wifi 5 GHz while my other iphone 11 pro and iphone X can. I already reset my network setting still can't. Anyone help me
There are two that I like: apps.apple.com/us/app/iperf-3-wifi-speed-test/id1462260546 (free) and this one but it is paid: apps.apple.com/us/app/iperf-speed-test-tool/id951598770
Good video, despite being two years old. I've got the exact same router and wasn't sure I was actually getting AX speeds so duplicated your tests. Testing an iPhone 13 Pro on a 5ghz wireless to an M1 MacBook Pro on ethernet yielded average up speeds of 504 Mbits/sec (peak 705) and 434 Mbit/sec (peak 478) downloads. I guess that validates WiFi 6 is running. Thanks for this demo.
Agreed that it is still early days - not that many WiFi 6 clients on the market yet. You really have to have 802.11ax clients to justify the cost of the upgrade and you will want a decent Internet speed. If you were going to buy a new router today however, would you buy a Wifi 6 or an older standard?
@@davidbombal I think I'd go with AC router, Wifi 6/AX is expensive, from what I can see new Wifi 6 devices don't have chips with finished draft yet, not everything could be added with firmware/software so next router would be needed again. Same with internet speed, my internet is LTE rocking up to 50-60 mbs, fiber maybe will come during this year, maybe not but then again, if I'm next to router cable could be used anyway, speed is decreasing with range. I think Cisco and Aruba came out also with Wifi 6 access point well before those home brands like Netgear and Tplink, even their devices doesn't all seem to be according to finished standard draft.
@@wiziek Good points. I have a Cisco WiFi 6 AP which Cisco gave me last year, but if I remember right, Netgear and others beat Cisco. Cisco only released their APs in April 2019 - when I visited Cisco last year, they demonstrated some of their prerelease stuff to me - I made a quick video about it here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-e6fqQQA2Hu4.html - I did the opposite of you and got the WiFi 6 router partly because I wanted to test it, but also to have the feature for new devices (but, my current APs are really old anyway, so I have another good excuse to upgrade).
As an Ekahau Certified WiFi Engineer you will never ever get these transfer rates on a high density wireless network that costs thousands and thousands pounds to design and build, AX is not worth the investment, what someone should be looking for is consistent repeatable results, can roam through a network. The video uploaded is not a correct reflection of AX, this is fine in a home network,
WiFi 6 i have 2.4 Gbps and 4.8 Gbps on my computer to the router .BUT My iphone 12 refuse to connect to my wifi 6.. but if i make a guest net with AX 160mhz it does connect to the router but only getting 866.7 mbps wich is the wifi 5 AC speed i have on my iphone 7 ,, but reporting AX connected !!! .. Router Asus AX92U , using the free "WinFi" a monitoring program by Helge..a great program that can see 160mhz as well.. getting 2,4 Gbps steady with my PC connected to the AX92U with a TP link TX3000 wifi 6 card
@David Bombal. Being new to all this, if you get 63Mb/sec in from the service provider how is it that the router puts out 918Mb/sec. 🤔 hmm. Need some help please.
This router has 2 gig ports that can work in aggregate to increase speed to the wired network. However, this is a challenge people will face with WiFi 6 - they will need to ensure that the physical network can handle the traffic from wireless devices. Another Netgear router for example has a 5 Gig port for physical connections. My home network is too slow, so I would need to upgrade from 1 Gig to 10 Gig to really support WiFi 6. My Internet speed is also way too low. Hopefully at some point I could get fiber to home. At work you would need to make sure the core networks are built to handle many devices in the coming years that can support this kinds of speeds. Will be interesting in the next few years :)
I got better speeds , and better battery life , I was scrolling TikTok for 2 hours and used 4 % of my iPhone battery while on wifi 5 same time same setting light and sound used 15 % . Wifi 6 is far superior and better .
im trying to broadcast iphone pubg mobile from obs without capture card. trying out NDI capture, elgato screen link and after turning on these things both wifi tuner on the phone and modem is getting hot. When im moving my ping in game is getting higher. Realized these shitty softwares are using VBR bitrate and if you want to test it correctly you need to move fast and get that bitrate high to see if your wifi speed is enough for this. i putted a fan on my modems heatsink (dissassambled it) and ping went down to 80-100. so these things are thorttling and only option is disassembling and active cooling. Bought a 5ghz modem and connected from it and its going to obs with gigabit ethernet its better now.
Still not worth it. If you currently stream you video or get your InstaTiwtFace fast as you can see it then going faster won't help you. OFDMA and BSS coloring (both not implemented yet) are what will really make it shine and that will mainly be in High Density environments. So don't by Wifi 6 thinking you are going to see a big change. That being said, If your router bites the dust then by all means replace it with a Wifi 6 router.
@@davidbombal I've an 802.11ac router and debating the move to a new 802.11ax but since I've no devices currently on WiFi 6 can hold off for a bit. Just more applicable to the general public vs Network study fucused.
Orley Doss Agreed. Probably worth waiting until WiFi 6 devices become more common. I'm trying something new - hopefully be able to reach a larger audience 😀

can i pliz mention your channel in my youtube video ..the title will be like.... one of the best hacking channel to watch.. pliz Edit : By the way you r awesome..👊👊
I would rather upgrade network to 10g sfp+ rather than ethernet. Or at very least get a 3 € gigabit NIC to double network speed of most demanding devices. At expense of cheap cables and cheap, ports on a switch and motherboard, double power consumption.
You say "I would rather upgrade network to 10g sfp+ rather than ethernet." - is that not Ethernet? Did you mean WiFi? I used a WiFi adapter in a PC to test the speeds. But, I prefer cabled connections for my PCs, but Macbooks and others don't have wired connections anymore :( End up with lots of USB to Ethernet adapters.
There's no point buying Wi-Fi 6 devices, because alot of people are still using older devices. Less demand, I don't need to buy those routers for the house. It's pointless.
waste of time if u are stuck on a POTS turned DSL line thats miles from the exchange and no fibre nearby (av 2Mb/s speeds for me)... but interesting anyway, thanks
@@davidbombal rural northern ireland, ill be switching to a 4g router soon as its now getting competitive and a v realistic option against a cabled connection, esp when u have speeds that slow
@@progtom7585 Good point. It's definitely getting more reasonable to use 4G here in England as well. Hopefully we'll both get 5G in the next decade or so :)
Quality vid but not a real use case scenario of WiFi, the real benefit of WiFi 6 is multiple clients and all the benefits in that regard, single device speed test only relying on client mimo use. I’m sure someone as well versed as yourself in networking knows the true specifications of the standard and their Benefits, clickbaity videos like these are misleading ,Similar to only quoting power of cars does not describe the actual car.
