my place have both routers, difference between speed for me is around 660mbps on my iPhone 11 Pro max on RT-AC86U, if I connect to AX88U on wifi6, then my speed on my iPhone 11 Pro max is around 800mbps. Around 140-200mbps difference, depends on whether your device can support. If you got extra cash or want future proof, go wifi6, if u just want smth good and fast, 86u no horse run really ...
actually i wanna get wifi6 router but then heard from frens say still havent really stable yet and not many devices support it.
i nearly change all my wifi cards on pc and thinkpads to ax200 lol
Thanks for the feedback.
Yes, I read up about it. The spec template for wifi6 standard is out but not officially launch. Vendors just making routers based on the spec sheet and further improve them later with firmware updates. Like the bro say unless u wanna future proof then go wifi6. So I guess the bottom line is, if ur current infrastructure of ac86u being the top dog is still insufficient, then a complete overhaul to ax would be the next step. For me I guess not yet as currently only 2 iPhones 1tv 1pc in the house. Will stick to the free netgear from vq for the moment.
thx all, will give it a try
just an update...managed to find the ip address which was somehow changed to 198.168.50.1 without me even knowing...even the dns was changed, was previously using google dns. wonder is my network hacked
used that to log in and changed it back to the default, updated to latest merlin fw
can consider quad9 as well..
but nothing beats setting up pi-hole.

dun use google dns liao. can try cloudflare wan 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1
it's the fastest and they dun really track what u visit like google
wa damn impressed with this clip-on $7 tiong-made cooler from taobao..
powered by only one fan with adjustable speed which is almost silent on full power. starting I hear the fan speed I thought sure gg waste money + there's a sponge filter inside to trap dust..
after 15mins I check the temp and it went down from 78°c to 60°.. and the location of my router is in sightly above room temp under the wall mounted tv in the living room.
