I watched that video earlier, today, and now await the report from your real-world testing.  :)

MikroTik hAP ax² WiFi 6 Router Access Point (802.11ax) - C52iG-5HaxD2HaxD-TC

Introducing the hAP ax² WiFi 6 router - one of the smallest form factor, fully-featured 802.11ax routers on the market, offering all of the advanced features and build quality we've come to expect from MikroTik hAP series routers.

The MikroTik hAP ax2 features a modern quad-core ARM CPU running at 864 MHz, combined with a solid 1GB of RAM, more than enough when it comes to heavy operations like complex firewall rules, IPsec hardware encryption, using more threads or getting the most out of the advanced RouterOS features. The hAP ax2 also features WPA3 advanced encryption support, giving you peace of mind and additional security.

The hAP ax2 has 5 x Gigabit Ethernet ports, port 1 also features PoE in/out for those users who need Power Over Ethernet. The hAP ax² also features a strong dual-band, dual-chain wireless 4-4.5 dBi radio.

Mounting options for the hAP ax² are also versatile, offering both horizontal and vertical desktop mounting, as well as wall mounting with the included accessories.

So many questions

Just watched the video, has anyone watched any of the 'Money Heist' series on Netflix?

The guy presenting the hAP ax2 reminds me of 'The Professor' in that series  :)

@craigski I watched the Spanish-language original series. It was really excellent!

That IPQ6010 is so underclocked  :( it is usualy sold as a 4x 1.8Ghz SOC. It is used at that speed in the new Chateau LTE18 ax by the way...

Assuming these can be meshed, I'm tempted to buy three a few months after they are generally available. I currently use Netgear Orbi but the ones I have aren't AX, some devices here are AX capable and over time I guess there will be newer devices here which are AX capable.

That said... I still need to try out the Zyxel router and extender that Lightning Fibre supplied (as a potential replacement/successor to the current Netgear Orbi). I believe that's AX although my network won't be entirely Mikrotik still :D.

Estimates of 168 Euros so far, they can keep it for that price.

Waiting for the Mikrotik Audience ax with dedicated 5ghz back haul.

Netgear Orbi are not bad, I'm responding from an Orbi Pro SRK60 at present, same chipset as the current MikroTik Audience.

£606 for that Chateau 5G ax,#
2.5G ethernet port is a welcome addition:

Sounds to me like I should really wait for a Mikrotik Audience AX too, seems to be what I'm looking for.
