Shaggar posted:maybe if we were looking at routers with very similar performance, but in this case the difference in speeds is so incredible that the small variances caused by the network aren't significant. mishaq posted:ok shagger actually shaggar is extremely correct here. real world testing is the only number that matters sniping page 0x100

if ad injection is not possible the packet is sent to goog for examination so they can determine how to inject ads

I like how there is only one LAN port. on a $200 router. i wonder if they cut it because they somehow managed to gently caress up gig-e switching.

i predicted this. the router is so slow because it's constantly compiling gentoo updates

especially given that they use gentoo what do you want to bet they did 100% of the software development on x86 boxes and then just figured "oh hey this marvell SoC is 1.5 GHz, it'll be fine"

i had a $50 802.11n buffalo router and wi-fi always seemed kinda slow but i never really measured it, and then i upgraded from a 4mbps to a 100mbps internet connection and the speeds didnt seem to improve at all. turns out that piece of crap buffalo router was capping actual wi-fi transfer speeds at 2mbps no matter which settings i used. maybe google hired the project team from that router to make onhub

Since the original speed was ~33 megabit download this was invisible, but it got real annoying when the service got boosted to 120 down

QOS disabled hardware routing and dropped throughout to 110mbit which was frustrating because I have gigabit fiber. turning it off and reenabling hardware routing sent speeds back up to... 240mbit down 900mbit up because I happen to have one of the lucky unknown number of rt-ac66u routers with a hardware routing glitch to which Asus says "lol gently caress you it is past the warranty period". still better than using at&t's router because I can use opendns instead of having at&tdns sending me to woefully overloaded cdns for YouTube and the like. also lol it was faster in non hardware accelerated mode than the Google router.

its here. the all new nest generation 3 The display is 40 percent larger than the previous Nest, with 25 percent more pixels. (Nest says the display is now up to 229 PPI.) With the new display, Nest is adding a "Farsight" feature to the thermostat, which turns the display on whenever it detects motion in a room and displays useful information. The Nest will display an analog clock, digital clock, or the current temperature; Nest says it can be read from "across the room." Previously, the Nest display would only turn on when someone was standing in front of it, but "Farsight" is an extension of this that covers the whole room.
