Sky MER Compatible Modem Router

If you use a single tri-band router then you get 3 wireless bands for clients, eg: how I have it set up is 1 * 5Ghz channel with WPA2-AES and the other 5Ghz for WPA3 security mainly for the reason that not all clients are currently able to support WPA3 security.

In the 2nd configuration when the AiMesh is shared across the router and node then it is time-sliced, eg: you basically get less bandwidth available for clients than tri-band because even the mesh is time-sliced.

With tri-band wireless with a reserved 5Ghz band for the AiMesh then there is no time-slicing for the AiMesh, eg: fewer latency issues and more bandwidth for backhaul. And 1.2Gbps is available on router and node currently effectively 2.4Gbps for clients 1.2Gbps for each floor in a 2 story building.

Education paper on wireless time-slicing mesh.

I started reading that, I gave up reading that 😉

Pretty much me as well ! In thru one  ear or eye and out thru the other 😁

It was just an example and just a teaser to get into the subject of wireless meshes and technology. Clearly, it's not a full book...

Appears I've given up after the first few paragraphs 😁
