wAP ax?

No nore me lol… @nickshore is your place going to add them anytime soon ?

Getic will receive stock today/tomorrow, got message from their support.

The Ethernet cable can be routed via the back so why wouldn’t you ?

It is Satellithuset (https://www.routerboard.se)

Just ordered one wAP ax from Getic a few minutes ago.

getic don’t have any with a UK plug, my distributer will have them in stock in 1-2 weeks so they say :frowning:

Well, wap ax, as other MT devices, can be powered in so many ways. The worst case is as mentioned a post before - use EU to UK adopter.

Thanks good to know for future purchases, when I googled SHL all I found was swededn hockey league. Ordered mine from Getic last night, was probably 2nd to buy it after infabo, since they had 599/600 stock when I placed order. Will receive it tomorrow or friday, will report back how well it performs.

Stock was 600 when I ordered mine. Grats!

Thanks for the tips, I was just bemoaning the fact the UK market isn’t interested!
Mikrotik is a dirty word in the UK, not entirely sure why, maybe too many Ubi shills receiving free goods for review.

All the evil stuff comes from EU…lol

I am the lone defender of Mikrotik wifi in the UK :laughing:

Still not available at my distributor… :unamused: :unamused:

As mine arrives only next Tuesday I am curious for your first hand experience.

Got it today and here is first impressions:

7.17beta4

iperf3 -c server.local -P 5 -t 30 -R

TX power max per regulatory domain, will vary per ch. Tested on multiple chs.

AP around 2m away from STA. STA uses Intel AX210 wlan card whit not that powerful integraded laptop antenas, Fedora linux.



wifi speed tests:

2.4, 20mhz - 150

Power draw: 7w sending


5ghz, 160mhz - avg 800-900, peaks 920 (tops out 1G interface). 70% CPU load , both cores, icq about the same.

5ghz, 80mhz - avg 600-700, peaks 800.

Power draw: 8w sending on widest ch



Power draw idle: 5w

Overall comparing to hap ax3 and cap ax I did feel less powerful antennas, but as you can see, drop is not that much (hap ax3/cap ax pushed about 100mbps more on 80mhz wide ch overall). Otherwise resources are tighter than hap ax3/cap ax, but should not be a problem as this device is meant to be used as AP.

Be nice to see what it does with the 2 ports bonded together ?

AX devices released this year all seem to have 256MB RAM and these IPQ-50xx boards.

As CPU is limited I dont expect much, there is no switch chip afaik, so there is no way to hw offload it.

Indeed, if not all outdoor ax lineup is based on the same hw design. So base performance/features will be the same, only difference will be signal strength as antenna gain changes. That will impact throughput to a degree and range.
