[QUOTE="ishanjain28, post: 2490791, member: 82415"] My home is really old(built 60+ years back). It has almost no pillars and 2 feet thick walls. I noticed immense improvement going from EAP245 to EAP660HD in a room(1 wall away). Speeds went from low 70s to ~300mbps. Overall, Omada has been quite good! I have multiple EAP245 and now a eap660hd. I have 3 other OpenWRT APs that have fast roaming configured(to work with omada APs). FT is seamless in my whole home and transition times are <50ms between omada APs, <100ms between omada <-> openwrt or openwrt<->openwrt APs. (Openwrt ap has a bug where it does full 4 way handshake even when roaming instead of the shorter handshake which increases transition time) However, Omada does have some issues. eap660hd supports 4x4 mimo. Ideally, If I have 2 2x2 clients, I should be able to get the full speeds on both devices(around 650mbps on ac and 800mbps on ax) but with omada APs I can only get an aggregate of 650/800mbps on ac/ax. People have complained about this for years because they advertise mimo support and then it doesn't appear to be working well and nothing has changed from TP Link's side. :/ > On a lighter note, I have a feeling you are doing the same thing I did many years ago -which was to keep fiddling with one low grade equipment after the other only to realize that none of them fare truly fit for the purpose you want. You will only end up burning money ( albeit in small increments) this way :) Buy once, Cry once :):) It took me years to learn this lesson and it's almost always the right approach. [/QUOTE]
