Starhub UltraSpeed 3Gbps/5Gbps/10Gbps plans

Suggestion is to use a different VLAN and different subnet to have isolation. Your router can route between the subnets, so no need to switch back and forth?

thanks. not sure. havent tried this before. will have to see how to configure asus router to do this.

Most IoT devices are 2.4GHz. Even if band steering is enabled, the IoT devices will not roam to 5GHz. If the IoT device support 5GHz, then roaming to 5GHz will lessen the load on the 2.4GHz network, especially if you have quite a number of 2.4GHz IoT devices. So IMO, no issues using band steering at all.

For me i prefer to disable band steering.

For me i prefer to disable band steering.

Curious why, and how's your experience with it that deterred you from doing so? In my experience, I do not enable band steering, but allow the devices to choose for itself which band it prefers.

sometimes, these devices are not that 'smart' to select which band is best to use...

Is that router good?

Nice compact form factor with multiple ports.

This router can not support 5Gbps internet speed at all.

 

[petetherock]

Is StarHub Internet down for anyone else?

 

[Henry Ng]

Say 25 years Starhub but actually the price of internet promotion is same same as normal day.

Not sure i got smoked or what but checked with SH shop and was told this offer only for new subscribers and not valid for recontract. Currently i am on starhub bb + cable tv and i want to ditch the cable tv and just recontract to basic fibre broadband. Was told 3gbps plan would cost $39.95 per month bundled with hb410 router.
