What is the half-life of a $450 router?Upgrading for us is a bit of a hobby, not necessarily making big leaps.
Our latest upgrade was made due to our security cameras in the backyard, they were getting weak signals. So, I did some research and found our ASUS routers were capable of providing a mesh network.
So, configured our media bridge as a mesh node. Of course, now we need a new media bridge. We went with an ASUS AX router to fill this role with plans to upgrade our main router to AX as well.
Just got an ASUS AX11000 which we haven’t got up and running just yet.
All that said, it does appear making the leap to AX is a good upgrade to make. I believe you’ll see improvements as you get new devices capable of supporting AX.
