Use Nighthawk CAX80 as wireless router connected to Ubee DVW32CB?
I have Spectrum, and an Ubee DVW32CB Advanced Wireless Voice Gateway. I recently purchased the Nighthawk AX8 WiFi Cable Modem Router Model CAX80, but need to continue using the Ubee as a modem becaus...
I think you got wrong device for your combination here.
what you could ask your ISP if they are willing to do for you, is to keep voice on Ubee device and move Internet service to CAX80 as CAX80 is much better in WIFI performance to Ubee device you have.
or you should have ideally got router only device.
- Vkdelta - yes, that’s exactly what I did. And now I’m not charged for the Ubee, since voice equipment is free. The CAX80 is a lot faster, but it’s located in the basement and my office is on the 2nd floor, so I purchased the EAX20 so I can hopefully get 5G speeds
You should have considered a RAX80 or RAX120 wifi 6 router for use with your Ubee modem instead of the CAX80. These are just the router and wifi 6 that you can use with your EAX80 extender.
good that you split and not getting charged.
If you have another coax outlet (and in good working condition), you can connect CAX80 in floor-1 or floor-2. typically townhomes have coax outlets in multiple rooms (but needs to be properly connected and not add a lot of splitters thereby injecting noise)
