5Gbps WiFi
I currently have a RAXE500 router. I get good speeds - but the Ethernet input is limited to 2Gbps, so the WiFi is capped at that 2Gbps. I have a 5Gbps symmetrical fiber connection, and I’d like to ...
When you start getting to those speeds, its very rare for consumer devices to have the capability.
You might be better of with a business class router that you can connect multiple multigig devices to and a router (in ap mode) to.
You won't see 5gig over wireless. Even hitting 2gig is going to be pushing it. Reason is to hit the 4800mbps link speed that most routers advertise per band, you have 4x4 antenna setups. I don't know of an AX device (yet) that supports 4x4 antenna's. Only 2x2. So your highest link speed is going to be the 2400mbps. And thats link speed. Actual throughput tends to be around 55-65% of the link speed.
