So getting some odd speed drops

Last night my connection tanked around 10pm to 4.8Mbps then jumped back up to 700ish around midnight just tried another test and it's around 300Mbps at the moment.

Anyone else having issues?

I'm on the 909/900 package. A few weeks ago I noticed I was only getting 90/90 on speedtest and the EERO 6 pro reported the same. Restarted ONT and Eero and 900/900 was restored.

That's the only time I've noticed it since my install in August.

What I found most bemusing was 90/90 isn't even a package they offer so what happened there I have no idea!

I worked out it was all self inflicted as far as I can tell, I'd turned on app analysis and it had taken off a ton of bandwidth. Back to this now

I'm using an ax88u which I find fits my needs perfectly however it’s in the £300 range, worth checking out the other AX routers Asus offers though.

I’ve had a look at the Asus RT-AX86u

do u think this will be any good i just want to be able to get on the routers page , be able to change the channels of the 2.4 and 5ghz etc.
I’ve just ran into problems with these Amazon eero routers im a gamer keep getting random latency lag spikes with these hubs I’ve tried different dns servers mtu settings u name it everything on that eero app and there’s not much on there as you can’t log into the routers page so I’ve tried and tried to get it to stabilise for my gaming no luck, pings showing 7-8ms on speed test but in game I’m about normally from 24- 38 I’ve seen it go as high as 42 and I’m on a wired connection starting to think it’s the routers as my previous sky hub had a better latency in game I never seen it go any higher than 22ms and I only had a 36mb line at the time starting to think these routers can’t handle it and are no good for gaming so just want a decent router with plenty of settings I can mess about with and that is more stable in terms of latency what do u think ?

Go with the ax86u and flash it with merlin firmware. It's fully customisable, my assumption is that the eero is applying some sort of quality of service which you can completely disable on the ax.

do u think the ax86s will do the trick ? As this one has just been reduced on Amazon from £210 down to £180 ? Or do u think I’m better off with the AX86U ? It’s only really the ram that’s different between the 2

Also
I’ve tried pinging my routers ip 192.168.4.1
Came back at minimum 4ms, max 6ms, average 5ms

Shouldn’t this number be much lower than this ? And this is on a wired connection.
 
Just pinged my ax88 wired connection through an unmanaged switch <1ms

Stick with the U model as I can't see merlin available for the s model (I only briefly looked)

I look after a few people with Ogi and they seem pretty stable. What was confusing me is that as a poster found above, the speed suddenly dropped to 90/90 or thereabouts. Speedtest was a flat line which seemed to me to be rate limited. It turns out it was the eeeeeero devices that suddenly decided that although they were connected fine by ethernet, they wanted to mesh instead. No idea why they did this.

Have only had it happen once in 5 months, but it's now something I am mindful of.

Other then that, the line is rock solid 24/7.
