I was thinking similarly. The cpu spikes make router run hot. Every time Ive touched R3 its felt very warm not like any other router ive had. Kinda like the arris modem I had to put a fan next to to cool it
Yes it did increase speedtest from 200-300 to 300 to 400. The only thing is that i was using channel 161 on 5 ghz on xr1000 it is less congested in my area but its not on R3. I made a previous post. Im sure that channel will help with wifi stability once available
Yes SMA Male to RP-SMA Female. Approximately 5 to 10 feet. Increased transmit link speed on pixel 8 pro in bedroom furthest from router from 200 mbps to 600 mbps.
Im in Los Angeles and im missing channels 149, 153, 157, and 161 on 5ghz. Some more wifi options would be nice beamforming, OFDMA, MIMO, transmit power selector, wpa3/wpa2 simultaneously. Also a page for firewall options.
