Wireless data rates

I have AT&T internet with 1 Gigabit data rate connected to the Ruckus R510. Would it be worth the money to upgrade to a new router with 2 Gigabit data rate? Would I see a big increase in the 5 Ghz wireless data flow?

Thanks.

Hi @MichaelH

 

 

For the R510 and ICX7150 Switch the max port negotiation will be 1G, if are connected to a Router that can negotiate to more than 1G, they will only pass a maximum of 1G if data, also take into consideration that one thing is the port speed negotiation and the other is the speed of your internet.

Any updates on obtaining a license?

Hi @MichaelH 

Hope you are doing well 

I'll be checking this request but I was looking at some resellers and they go up to $750.

$750 for a license to run up to 10 MBPS on an existing switch? Hm. Not sure about spending that kind of money on a two-year-old switch. I can buy a brand new ASUS AX6000 which will give me up to 6 MBPS for $270. I think I'll wait to see what the new AT&T Arris modem provides in coverage. My house is only about 1,800 square feet, so I may not need anything else, or maybe an AT&T provided extender.
