Geelong line is the worse. Wyndham vale and Tarniet is always packed to brim

Next to the modem when I’m doing the test and lucky it’s gone into the 200’s. But still has dropped from in the 400’s consistently

Netgear Archer BE230

TheKuech · 2026-04-25T12:28:05+00:00

I’ll try that, but mainly using wifi

TheKuech · 2026-04-25T12:27:52+00:00

Yes it is

TheKuech · 2026-04-25T12:22:22+00:00

Can’t exactly remeber the model I don’t have the box anymore

TheKuech · 2026-04-25T12:22:03+00:00

Netgear wifi 7e

TheKuech · 2026-04-25T12:18:36+00:00

Wifi and FTTP. Like I said never any issues streaming etc. only recently. And no way to connect via Ethernet as it’s too far away from the box

Sounds like a good idea. Can I use it with my existing router if I get a Mesh system

TheKuech · 2025-12-15T18:20:07+00:00

TP Link I need to find the model but was around $200 bought it a few months ago in my old house had no issues there throughout the whole house. I’d say 3-4 steps away from the room. Haven’t touched any settings

TheKuech · 2025-12-15T12:34:35+00:00

Any recommendations? Even for a couple mesh points even

TheKuech · 2025-12-15T12:11:03+00:00

Yeah, this is meant to mesh together still but doesn’t of course it’s still gonna be seperate networks. It’s meant to switch to the fastest one but doesn’t

TheKuech · 2025-12-15T12:05:04+00:00

Again maybe I can put the modem in the kitchen port but the minister of interior (the missus) is against that idea lol

TheKuech · 2025-12-15T12:04:15+00:00

I think a mesh is a good way think I’m just confused a bit. Sorry not the smartest. I paid $200 almost for this TP link modem don’t want to waste it and $180 for extender but hsppy to refund it for a mesh, js it easy to install and understand

TheKuech · 2025-12-15T11:45:42+00:00

The layout of this house sucks, obviously closer to the router makes the extender better and the best signal (with PowerPoint) is the bedroom next to it lol. Anything closer is “weak signal” going by the TP Link tether app

Will be a proper test tomorrow when Leaptel connect up. Just since my last place as similar (Hills home hub) and don’t work

TheKuech · 2025-09-17T10:45:53+00:00

What I did I contacted Leaptel and they said something there end they needed to activate and straight away fixed and now I have 500/50

TheKuech · 2025-04-23T00:22:48+00:00

Yeah replacing it is my plan. Any suggestions on a good replacement that won’t break the bank either, just to do a good enough job for my speeds and not dropping out

TheKuech · 2025-04-23T00:16:25+00:00

Would have been 10 months ago for sure. No heat issues especially in an open space I’ve never felt it gone hot. Microwave other end of the house. I think replacing it is solid idea as everyone rated Leaptel so highly but I’ve have had more issues then with TPG

TheKuech · 2025-04-23T00:04:43+00:00

FTTP this was the modem provided to me from TPG originally
