So I’m planning on replacing my aging wifi 5 routers (three in my house) with wifi 6E routers, as I now have enough wireless devices that could take advantage of the upgraded speeds. I figured that I would also like to find wifi 6E routers that have 5gbs ethernet or faster outputs so I could also upgrade the NICs on my wired devices and one day increase the speed that my ISP offers, as due to my current wifi routers are preventing me from upgrading from my current 1gbs speeds.
Anyways, do any of you know of wifi 6E routers that have 5gbs or faster ethernet outputs?
All I can seem to find is one or two wifi 6E routers that offer 2.5gbs.
Thanks.
If you’re looking to increase your wired LAN speeds, it will probably be cheaper and easier to get an mGig-capable switch that is separate from the router. This will handle all of your LAN devices at up to 10 Gb/s, and you can uplink the switch to one of the ports on your router. For the most part, your router really only needs to support the speed of your Internet connection. Any local traffic between wired devices on the LAN will never traverse the router.
