>>>Hi,
>>>
>>>Currently I have the following router:
>>>Linksys EA6900 wireless router. The problem with this router is that it does not well reach upstairs (the router is on the 1st floor). So, the computers/iPad on the second floor do not get a good receptions.
>>>The online description of this router, EA 6900 AC 1900, does not show the area coverage.
>>>
>>>I consider replacing this router with the Netgear Nighthawk C 7000 AC 1900. This one shows the coverage to be 1800 sq ft and 30 devices.
>>>
>>>Two questions:
>>>1. Do you have an experience with the Nighthawk R7000?
>>>2. Misleading is the AC 1900 which is present in both routers. Is this an indication of the speed or the coverage?
>>>
>>>The speed is not that important since all of the devices use wireless connection and the speed they spec is the hardware connection.
>>>
>>>I would appreciate any input on this.
>>>
>>>UPDATE. I see the following:
>>>AC1900 speed (Dual band up to 600 + 1300 Mbps)
>>>so, it means that AC 1900 is the speed; not coverage. Therefore, probably not that important for the router reaching the 2nd floor.
>>
>>Hello,
>>
>>Anybody can suggest a good URL for testing the wireless connection speed? I only found xFinity pages for testing the speed and I would like something independent of the ISP.
>>Also, you get too results, upload speed and download speed. For a teleconferencing (zoom, gotomeeting, etc.), which is more important Download or Upload?
>>TIA
