If MT wifi products had decent documentation, clear paths to setup, and users could understand all the available features and
setup the APs with relative ease and they worked and provided consistent stable throughput, perhaps nOrmands you would have a leg to stand on to “get aggressive with mkx”.
Clearly this is not the case going through all the forum posts. As AMMO alluded far more transparency on capabilities and planned work would smooth over disgruntled feathers somewhat.
I pointed out the need for MT to get serious about WIFI and hire BPWL for example to take 6mos-1yr to work with your engineers to decipher what the equipment could do should do and how to write up documentation so success can be achieved fairly regularly. No, instead MT continues to push what looks like half finished products out the door, with promises of functionality that have been on other wifi router for probably a decade, with other functions on previous models but missing on newer ones, and generally wifi6 functionality that is not clear to comprehend or use, why show 80+ or 160 if its not actually available… All in all a hot confusing mess and nowhere near the quality of lets say the RB5009.

I have an AX3 sitting in another room and got family to buy one in Europe, hopefully I will get the courage to play with it but I am really waiting for someone else to actually figure it all out because I dont have the time or patience. I tried a couple of times and got so bogged down in the menus that I gave up. I have a tplink eap243 that crushed any wifi5 offering from MT and so far the TPLink EAP660HD seems like a decent wifi6 option, however when I see (but dont believe) some forum users getting 900Mpbs on an AXE3, which would be awesome and amazing if true and we could dispense with talking about any other options!!!, BUT HOW COME its seemingly a rare thing for people to achieve??? I think I am going to buy a zyxel WIFI6E AP model and see how that goes… Tad more expensive aka double the cost, but if it actually works out of the box…its worth it!
Summary: RoS combined with crappy wifi/wifi wave2package is an INSULTINGLY poor companion to the fabulous RoS and pushes clients towards other solutions.
