AX5700 vs AX6000
Is there a comparison chart somewhere that would show me the difference between the AX5700 and AX6000 models? I ordered it from CostCo not realizing there were two different models, and I don't see ...
Mostly explained over there ref. the RAX80 (retail) vs. the RAX75 (e.g Costco) already.
The "missing" 300 are coming from the disabled 1024-QAM on the 2.4 GHz :
RBK840:
2.4GHz AX: 4x4 (Tx/Rx) 256-QAM 40MHz, up to 920Mbps
5GHz AX: 4x4 (Tx/Rx) 1024-QAM 160MHz, up to 4.8Gbps
RBK850:
2.4GHz AX: 4x4 (Tx/Rx) 1024-QAM 40MHz, up to 1.2Gbps
5GHz AX: 4x4 (Tx/Rx) 1024-QAM 160MHz, up to 4.8Gbps
Unless you have a large amount of WiFi 6 2.4 GHz devices operating compareably near to the access points (otherwise the 1024-QAM in not very likely to achieve) the Costo version is fine.
Check the bottom of the spec sheets on NG support site for each RBK840 and RBK850. I believe they are about the same less WiFi radio and connection rate differences.
