Hi

Can you suggest any good Wifi 6e router?

OR
For wifi6 router
AX10 is 3300
AX23 is 4300
AX53 is 5000.

Which one you suggest out of these?
I mean if it is worth I can spend more.

We have 2250 sq ft house and around 20 devices including mobiles, laptops, smart devices, wifi cameras, etc.

Also suggest if any good router with a USB port. USE - To add a HDD/SDD for time machine backup for macbook.
Thank you!

probably you need 1-2 more extender to create a mesh network. all are good.

209.032 square metres with RCC work (concrete columns, slab, brickwork) all with a single router or are you okay with using two separate devices to give dedicated coverage or maybe some extender/s apart from the router?

So you are okay with even upto 5000-5500 rupees spending, right?

i have tp link archer a9 ac1900 ,bought it for 6k ,if u want usb port u need to spend like min 5k on router,i ordered tp link ax10 in prime sale for like 2k 😭,but it come doa so i returned it ,its better to buy 1 main router and 2 additional router and run them in access point mode,dont buy range extender they are trash and waste of money.

i think u should wait for oct or aug

AX10 is a bit older model, its newer version AX12 though comes with a weaker single core processor which shouldn't be an issue for typical usage but better safe than sorry.

AX23 is also older model with its last firmware update released in March 2022.

AX53 is the newer model among them so it is preferred. It also has more features like dedicated IoT network & device isolation as well as bandwidth limit for guest network.

However, keep in mind that none of these routers have bandwidth control per connected device, an option which is supposedly there in cheaper & older tech archer C6 v4.x

You can also take a look at tp-link Deco M4 pack of 3 as a mesh solution.

 Also take a look here:

P.S. Device isolation seems to work only for devices connected to other wifi bands but not on the same wifi band to which isolated device itself is connected.

Ok thanks!
I saw that post...very good.
So I understand that using 2-3 mesh routers will give great coverage throughout but will that be better compared to if we use 2-3 good routers.
Like, between a single X20 deco (Rs 5000) and AX53 (Rs 5000), which will give better range/coverage and overall experience?
