Advice needed please.

You mentioned you’re not sure what I was referring to. OFDMA & MU-MIMO are the Wi-Fi 6 technologies I was referring to.

What's that got to do with legacy devices being able to run at their max bandwidth on an Ax router?

I'd assumed it goes without saying that the op will need Wifi6 devices to get Ax speeds with an Ax router and obviously he may have upgrade the wifi in his devices to get that.

Wi-Fi is half duplex.
OP doesn’t have any issue yet, so no need for premature engineering.
 
@ OP - the Airties are 1600AC so theoretically you SHOULD be able to get up to 800Mbps on them - I haven't tried, Most i got on mine (way back when) was client limited to 300Mbps. BTW i sent you the link to the latest firmware i have - have scoured the net for more but nothing was available.

Back to my question - would you be disappointed with 300 / 400Mbps on wifi?
 
So I did an ethernet connection into my router and am getting 479/240 off my 500/250 line, so it seems the airties are slowing my network down. Time to upgrade them but what do I get?

Also remember to take into account wireless band interference - that will impact the speeds you get.

You could look into the Deco series (M4/4 or the AX series) from TP Link or if you have the funds go Ubiquiti

Please explain how are they slowing your network down when you’re using ethernet directly?
 
Did a test with ethernet compared to test on airties wifi

How are the Airties slowing down your wired network?
