Review on Asus RT-N12/D1 IEEE πŸ’» 802.11n Wireless Router for Improved SEO by Ada Kowalczyk ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

There are pros and cons, think before buying.

- "weak" Wi-Fi: through one! breaks through the interior wall of a panel house with a loss of ~ 30dBm and loses under 50% of the speed . The total signal power jumps + -12dBm. In my experience, this is the worst result. I did research and comparisons, but SUCH has never happened . - accessing the router settings through a browser is almost impossible - you can wait tens of minutes for a successful response. And this is with a "complete" lack of Internet activity of clients! At the same time, it responds "tolerably" - 2/3/5/6ms. To be honest, very upset. I have been sitting on TP-Link devices all my life, and then I decided to try ASUS devices - they were very often praised. On the wires - there are no questions (if only they were!). In the same room - there are no questions (well, yes, he covers my 3-4-5m normally). In the next room - a complete pipets: the network is lost, the speed is at best 50%, sometimes even a file of a couple of tens of MB cannot be downloaded . At the same time, the channel is free, only one superimposed signal, and it is barely caught (~ 1/5 from the power of my router). To say I'm a little disappointed is an understatement. I expected more from ASUS. The same TP-Link of the same class hits 3-4 thick brick walls with about the same result . but, damn it, you have to restart it by hand every few days . For those who need good Wi-Fi not in the studio, I strongly do not recommend it. Such losses in the walls and high load of the router do not imply aggressive use of Wi-Fi. Different sorts of "wise men" - the router is installed high and openly away from sources of radio interference in the center of the apartment. Do not transfer to other locations. Signal strength at max or max-1. "Apisolated" = true. All clients are 8022022n. The firmware is the latest. P. By the way, in very "noisy" conditions, reducing "RTS Threshold" by 2 times (1152) and "Beacon Interval" also by 2 times (50), turning off "Qos" (if you don't like to mindlessly download torrents and chat online at the same time) helps a little. video), "WWM APSD" and "Roaming Assistant".

Pros
  • - 2 external antennas; - "Easy" settings (when you set up several dozen routers, this item loses its relevance . Especially in the case of Dynamic IP); - Router reboot scheduler and Wi-Fi on/off scheduler;
Cons
  • - "weak" Wi-Fi; - eternal problems with the return of the Web-muzzle; - RAM loading about 90% even in the absence of active traffic;
