RAX30

Hi
How rax 30 is compared to rax 70 in terms of coverage through the house including garage and garden ?

I previously had rax 120. Returned it after 2 days as it was repeatedly rebooting like nuts. Bought rax 30. But its signal loses in the garage.

Pls help.

Thanks

Re: RAX30

What's the size of the home in Sq ft. 

RAX30 is fairly entry level and probably not great for larger sized homes. 

Review the spec sheet for each of the models your looking at for wireless specs and speed information and handling.

There is a FW fix for the RAX120 reboot issue.

Re: RAX30

Distance wise, most single router solutions are going to be pretty similar as they've all been maxing out their wifi broadcast power for years. You might get some differences in performance at those ranges on the higher end models but their actual coverage will be similar. 

If you're needing to cover dead areas, maybe switching to a mesh system with a satellite would help versus a single router solution. How big is the home?

Re: RAX30

Thanks but it was too technical fix for a person like me. But thanks anyway.

These are the dimensions:

House – 10m x 7.8m
Garden – 10.7m x 9.8m
Garage – 5.8m x 3.1m

I guess 310 sq m or 3336 sq ft.

Re: RAX30

The RAX70 should be good enough for that size of home.

Re: RAX30

And RAX30 is not going to cover that much area ?
Thanks

Re: RAX30

The RAX30 is fairly low budget router so may or may not have the same coverage as the RAX70 or 120. 

 

RAXE has 6Ghz frequency support were the RAX series does not.
