Question TP-Link Archer AX10 (Wifi 6, AX1500) + Archer TX3000E (Wifi 6, AX3000)

[LOUISSSSS]

Thanks to some help on this forum, i just picked up This router and wifi adapter to upgrade from my Verizon G1100 + Aorus B450 Pro Wifi onboard Wifi. At home, i have Fios 200/200 internet, and my Note 9 + S9 can easily get 200-300 up and down nearby the router, but since i'm WFH and my main PC is farther away, i get about 90-150.

Looking to boost range + boost speed.

Wi-Fi speed is always hampered by walls, doors and other obstacles.

Never expect you will get the same speed when you are further away from the Wi-Fi router and also not in the direct line of sight. Router & WiFi adpater's max speed is always just theory in optimal condition.

Wireless solution is for convenience, not performance/reliability.

Other members already suggested powerline or coax ethernet (MOCA) adapters if you hate wire and really need that 200/200 speed. Choose MOCA if you have coax cable in your room.

i do have coaxial plugs built into walls, but i've only ever used a coaxial from my Fios Router to my Fios Set Top Box. i no longer have fios tv service. How do i get a Coaxial setup for better wifi?

MOCA converts your coax cables to wired ethernet network.

Of course you just give up WiFi for your PC.

If you get Gigabit service from FIOS, the "FIOS Home Router" (AX / Wifi 6) is FREE to rent, or at least, it was for me, they were throwing in the rental with gigabit-class service, and it has MOCA 2.5 built-in, which can handle gigabit over MOCA. Then get a MOCA 2.5 transceiver, for the other end.

Way better than the non-bonded MOCA of the FIOS G1100 router. (Although, I think that one is limited to 500Mbit/sec max, which would probably still work for you with 200/200 (really, 300/300) service.)

I wish I could upgrade to gigabyte, currently no real need (or at least I haven't been tickled enough) to get gigabit. I actually only had fios 100/100, now they had a deal for a "free, same price, $40) upgrade to 200/200.

So far the only negative is my 2 4 speeds are way below 200,and even below 100. When I was on 100/100,i at least got those speeds.

What do u do to fully utilize gigabit?
