Just picked up a AX11000 off Amazon warehouse as was going cheap... seems it actually has worse range than my historic AC68U! Is this because the Broadcom chipsets are naff nowadays?
Very confused as it’s an 8 antenna AX tri-band router vs a 3 antenna AC dual band one, so would have hoped the range would have at least been equal.
Also picked up a Netgear Nighthawk AX12 (the RAX200) variant, that has even worse average signal quality than the AX11000!
Positioning, devices, testing method are all the same so seemingly the design of the 2 AX routers (which use the same Broadcom chipset) is somehow worse for range than the old AC68U??
Any ideas?!
