A:AnswerHi Sam,
Yes you can connect the switch to the LAN ports of mAX Pro and use it for connecting your wired devices.Note that do not connect the satellite wired to the main AP via the ethernet switch. You can either establish the wireless backhaul or make direct connection with the main AP.
A:AnswerHi Geoff,
In The SURFboard mAX router there isn't a provision to manually select the band that you want to connect to because it utilizes smart band steering algorithms that would let your client device connect to the best possible band.
A:AnswerThese routers do not require a subscription. However, they do need to be connected to a modem that provides internet service so please be sure you have some type of modem that provides the internet access prior to purchasing.
A:AnswerIt does not have a USB port. However, I have a Western Digital NAS PR2100 with two 14TB performance drives in Raid 0 and works lighting fast attached with an Ethernet cable on one of my mesh devices downstairs and shared wirelessly on my network. ThevWD unit also has a USB port for attaching a hard drive and transferring files and backups.
A:AnswerOne is the master and the other is a remote extender. So plug cat5 internet into the master. place the second unit somewhere else in your house to extend the range. It's a mesh network so your wifi will work seamlessly between the two towers
A:AnswerNo, SURFboard mAX Pro/Plus cannot be used along with your existing Ruckus WAP as a mesh network. You can instead plug in the mAX pro/Plus toyour ruckus router to receive the WAN connection. The recommended setup would be to use your mAX pro/plus mesh system with your modem/gateway
A:AnswerIt will easily get all 300 Mbps to your devices, but the internet connection will be the bottleneck. If you have a streaming server in your house plug that into the LAN port (or two using LAC) and you will get way more going to you devices.
