So their Wifi Pro 2.5GbE product requires an Enterprise Switch to be able to get 2.5 GbE

I hope they upgrade their Pro switch line-up so they are aligned.

Totolink X5000R. 50-70€. OpenWRT support. Wifi 6e on 2.4 & 5 GHz Bands.
I think this one is only Wifi 6, not 6e (i.e.: the 6 GHz band)
Right. Always forget about that. 6GHz licensing in Europe is bad / late. So we didn't get to enjoy the 6e fun here :-/
But I can highly recommend to get Wifi 6 on the 2.4 GHz Band, too. I've finally gotten usable 2.4GHz again as that band was stuck on Wifi 4 (Wifi 5 (ac) was a 5Ghz improvement only).

#83Are these ceiling mounted APs suitable for a home environment where they would not be ceiling mounted? Like can I put it on a desk like I do my ancient Apple AirPort Time Capsule AP? PS the time capsule is sitting on a desk in our main floor living room and it covers basement, main floor, and all upstairs except 1 corner bedroom. It’s connected via Ethernet to a EdgeMax 4 router which has been mostly great though int…

But WiFi 6E is approved in Europe? I'm in Sweden and my U6-Enterprise is perfectly happy broadcasting in the 6GHz bands without any region hacks.

There is a nice world map. Yes, the lower part of the 6GHz spectrum is enbaled. So only parts if it.
No outdoor use unless power is capped massively

#86I wish they would get their shit together and have software that isn't buggy / riddled with security issues. Their march to a cloud dependent offering is so disappointing.
What's with their software being riddled with security issues? The only security issue I know about UI is one with that rogue employee leaking their secrets?
Very recent. Users being given access to other users systems.

#87At 5:20 in this video https://youtu.be/7JNXghzzaZc?t=320 they show it offers a 240 MHz wide channel option in the 5 GHz space. What a mess. I'd say that kinda makes sense for a AP AP bridge use case out in the middle of nowhere but you'd be better off using a 320 MHz channel in the 6 GHz space with this AP or an AP with more than 2x2.
Did I understand the video correctly, or is the U7 product page wrong? The video says the U7 doesn't do 6e, but the U7 product page says it does 6GHz, which implies that it does.
The video doesn't say the U7 doesn't do 6e it just poorly explains if you want a device that only does 6e there were 2 other models and then mentions the U6-Pro only did Wi-Fi 6.

Ah, didn't know that. Is there a plan to enable more of it or has the EU already allocated 6 GHz to some other use?

#892x2 MIMO? The U6 pro and LR have 4x4.

Wifi.org says it's under consideration. But I wouldn't wait for it to happen.
Due to all of that I mostly ignored the 6GHz wifi stuff.... So interesting to hear it's working for you. That's the first time I hear someone from Europe say it's working for them.
