My router just died yesterday. What are the chances Costco will price match if I purchase now?

Just buy now and save the receipt. When the sale activates buy again and return the new one with the old receipt.

What's everyone's thoughts on TP-Link AX11000 vs. Asus AX86U? They're both about the same price when this Costco deal drops.

You can't buy AX86U now as there's no stock (except the special version from GME) ... I was in the same boat so decided to pull the trigger on this one and give it a try.

Your alternative would be buying GT-AX11000, with 15% trade-in discount + BBY CC (~8%), it's roughly $350 vs $250 here.

Does anyone have experience with this vs. the Orbi that's also going on sale? I have the older Orbi at the moment and was wondering which one would be the better upgrade. Thanks in advance!

If you want wide coverage area or range go for the orbi. No matter how catchy titles these routers come with now a days, the fact is they really suck at long range. I had a asus n300 that used to cover 6 floor @my office. Now they have max through put only, range is a joke.

How does this AX11000 compare with the Orbi at Costco
What does 11000 vs 4200 mean - do these numbers have any bearing, maybe number of antennas?

Just bought this to replace my super old Wireless-N router.

Only issue im having is my phone (and my Nintendo Switch) doesnt see 5G-1. No issues seeing 2.4 or 5G-2.

if it does see the 5G-1, it errors saying "cant authenticate" then after a Wifi refresh it disappears again.

Currently looking online and Reddit to see solutions.

Login to admin enable mimo.

Right now your phone is trying to negotiate which network let the router do it automatically and it will also prioritize and split slow versus fast streams

Tried that. No change.

Returned it and got a new one. Same issue.

Chat'd with an agent, tried everything, even setting it to open/none, still couldn't connect. Said both could of been defective, so getting it RMA'd.

Til then 2.4G and 5G-2 it is...

Just bought both and tried it out. The TP-link is way better, the Orbi interface is designed for novice users with absolutely no advanced controls. The Orbi also had a lot of lag with streams from Fire Recast. The TP-link is going strong with 40+ devices and no lag anywhere. Returning the Orbi today

I actually disabled 5G-1 permanently as it was bit slower than 5G-2 when connecting from distance. Not really sure what's the difference between these two. But I using 2.4G for 2.4 purpose and 5G-2 for 5G purpose.

I'm facing the same dilemma, how are you finding the AX11000 so far?

No, shit is going back. It works great as a router, if that's all you need go for it. TBH it's a great router

But if you need anything samba, or NAS an HDD via USB etc. The feature on this tplink somehow doesn't work with my existing harddrive out of the box.

Bottom line: if you just need a great router with great coverage, go for this one, it's a great router and does the routing and WIFI flawlessly, but its software is basic. If you expect/need anything software wise like Asus, you need to get an Asus.
