Q: QuestionIs it worth upgrading from a Nighthawk x10 R9000?

Asked 3 years ago by Mergander.

• A:Answer It honestly depends on why you want/need to upgrade. 6E is a great addition, but I decided to upgrade because I needed more insight on my network to identify and locate problematic devices. This router does offer greater insights so that you can gain better control of your network. If you're not having a problem with your current setup, you should ask yourself what you hope to accomplish by upgrading or else you risk being disappointed when everything feels the same.

Q: QuestionDid anyone try this one with Oculus Quest 2?

Asked 3 years ago by Salah.

• A:Answer Curious why you ask? I have a Quest 2 and use it quite easily with multiple routers. The Quest 2 does support WIFI6 (so AX), which might get you a tad more stability over just regular WIFI5 (AC). I've used it fine with WIFI5 - using Quest Airlink (the built-in way to stream PC VR games to it) and via 'Virtual Desktop' (generally, my preferred way to wirelessly stream PC VR to it). Quest doesn't support 6e specifically (the 6GHZ), nor does it need it (WIFI5 and WIFI6 are plenty good enough). I believe the Quest Pro might support 6e though. Maybe that means the Quest 3 will support 6e as well next year.

Q: QuestionDo you need a internet company to use?

Asked 3 years ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer You need an internet service provider to access the internet, but this router can function as a stand-alone if you have the need for a local network without internet. This router does not include a modem, so any internet connection will also need a device suitable for translating the internet signal into an Ethernet cable for your network.
