Nighthawk ax8 (ax5700) or Nighthawk x6s (ac3600) which is better unit to get?
I am trying to get a new router and these two are my options.
I bought the ax8 and had to turn off some setting so that my computer will see the wifi connection. Also, i tried the smart connect and it drastically slowed than almost all of the electronics connected to it i am not sure if what went wrong on that. Like when smart connect is on i cant even stream netflix without buffering.
Is it better to just stick with wifi 5 (x6s ac3600) for now for better experience?
Ax8 = $200
X6s = $150
Thanks
