    In this video, I will unbox, setup, and perform a full review of the Xiaomi AX9000 WiFi6 router. I will go through all the features of the router. Then, I will show you how to set up the device and pair it to the Mi Home App. I will perform speed tests and range tests, and compare it to the Xiaomi Mi AIoT AX6000 and AX3600 Routers using the iPerf3 Bandwidth measurement tool. The Xiaomi AX9000 supports the 160MHz bandwidth, Game Acceleration, and Mesh Networking.

    Love your channel! I have the AX9000 (main), AX6000 and AX1800 for my mesh system.
    The 5G Game's (5.2Ghz) SSID does not appear on some of my devices' (incl. an iPhone 12) wifi scan, even when placed next to the AX9000. Do you know why that is?
    Also, the same said devices, when far from the AX9000 but near the other two units (ie the AX6000 and AX1800), will refuse to connect to the 5Ghz band of the AX6000/AX1800 even when the 5G signal bar (I assume from the AX9000) has disappeared.
    The 2.4GHz band works flawlessly throughout the mesh system across all devices though. (Just an fyi: the routers are all Chinese version, and the devices that actually worked properly across all bands happened to be purchased in the US.)

      @@MarstaJNZ hey, depends on your budget and needs, if you are using old devices, few devices or don't need that much range don't use any of these wifi 6 routers, if you use a few wifi 6 devices go for AX3600, if you use wifi 6e (devices from 2021 and beyond) go for AX6000, if you want the best of the best in term of speed and signal go for AX9000, I have upgraded from AX3600 to AX6000, the difference wasn't big, but that was due to me using a wifi 6 device, after getting a wifi 6e device (Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra) speed has increased, but the range was not that good for my case, since I live in 3 floor house, so I got an AX9000 router as the main router in the basement Floor and connected to the AX6000 using mesh, and placed that AX6000 on the second floor, so I got 1 router on the lower floor and 1 on the upper floor and they both cover the middle floor (I can't place the AX9000 in the middle floor since all my networking cable and devices that use ethernet are located on the basement floor)

      Yes I already considered that, but for that I need 2 desktop computers, one server and another as the client with the new WiFi card.

With 6E, theoretically I should be able to test higher speeds with the phone. Thanks.

    The price is too high for the benefit over the redmi ax6/ax3600/ax6000.

      I agree. If it was 6E then it could have been reasonable. But no.
