Nighthawk X4
1 TopicNighthawk X4 AC2350
So I am a Comcast customer. I have their wifi modem/router. I also have another wifi router (Linksys). Just like many of you, we have Roku, Hulu, Netflix, etc. We also have Arlo cameras, a Ring door bell, cell phones, a couple of tablets, XBox, etc. We buy the highest speed package from Comcast, as I am also an omline instructor, so good reliable and fast signal is very important to me. I am having a tough time getting service to the back of our modest 1700 sq ft home. I am getting ready to buy the Nighthawk X4 - which may be an overkill, but it seems like a good unit. I am particularly concerned about the Ring doorbell and the Arlo cameras having a solid signal. I have a few questions about this change. 1. Should I deactivate my other two Wi-Fis? 2. If I should keep my other two routers, should I move the Linksis to another room in the house? 3. Am I better off plugin my ethernet to my main desktop to the Nighthawk or to the Comcast unit? 4. Should the desktop be connected wirelesly or through the Ethernet cable? I would appreciate any ideas on how to manage this. I am ordering my X4 today. On Amazon, the X4 is only $10 more than the Nighthawk AC1900, so I figured, why not buy the unit with the better processor, more antennas, etc. Thank you all. AldoSolved5.1KViews0likes4Comments
