best router for flex smartSdr to have least latency ?
Hi,
from the research I did, I have come to the conclusion my older router is just not up to the task of supporting the flex radio and its remote capability without a lot of latency.
I have the asus rt-ac68R in a mesh configuration, hardwired to the flex radio lan port.
the radio shack switch is connected via a mesh node using a 5g signal to tx to the main router which is 100 feet opposite side of the house.
then out to the fiber. this also adds even more latency.
I am looking for suggestions of whatever routers you "remote" operators use to get multiflex to work without continual popping on your remote pc.
I am sure that there is more than one correct answer, so if you please tell me the routers you are using, I will go and compare the features of those and decide if i want to upgrade.
a mesh system with a node at the shack someone proved to work is even better, maybe if I upgrade to one of those 6ghz mesh systems it may help?
its possible all I have to do is hardwire the 2 nodes together for a lan cabled backhaul system, but I dread pulling that 100 foot lan cable through my attic to make that happen. - worse, if I do that and nothing improves…
but if someone has evidence that solved the issue, then ok. or any remote systems of links as I described that can work.
thanks for any advice.

I used to recommend TP-LINK but now there is concern about some spyware. It might be as simple as using a 100mb/sec switch connected to the radio as some 1G ones have problems with autointoxication.
Are you sure the router is the problem. Before you replace things, you should run some tests on your network and see if you can find the issue.
The challenge is you have to assume it can be anything. Network cards in the computer, cables (yes, they go bad), switch, etc.
I don't think your problem is latency, it is UDP packet loss.
I would spend some time getting to know iPerf.
