Thank you for the english review. I was very worried to buy this because afraid everything is in chinese and have hard times setup. But after seeing your review it looks very easy. Thanks also for the mesh setup.
Hey, Thanks for the video. I tried connecting this with AX1800 as a node but it couldn't find it. I had to upgrade firmware of AX1800 to 1.0.336 and it worked.
I never use redmi/xiaomi router before so i need some info about the QoS setting. Can this router set different download/upload speed limit for each device connected?
Hi i have 2 story house . I bought ax3600 i want to buy one more for the 2 floor. Should i buy ax6 or ax3600 ? Is 2 ax3600 (waste of money) or is much better performance than ax6 Can i create mesh with LAN cable so the internet more stable?
I just got the redmi ax6. I really like it. However not a lot device supports 80mhz 4x4 or 160mhz 2x2. So most of the device will just run at half of the speed.
First of all, thanks for the AX 3600 review of yours. I've also discovered the English Firmware patch for that one. My AX3600 works very well now :D Now, I'm thinking of buying this router as a Wifi 6 Access Point for 5Ghz 160mhz, but I've heard that this only has 128MB ROM. Is this a big factor in performance since I want the AX3600 to do the DHCP? Note that both of them are connected via LAN with the AX3600 as the "main router". EDIT : I've implemented Wifi Roaming with my older AC router by bringing down the bandwidth to 80mhz at WPA2 at 5Ghz. So I'm planning to buy this a cheaper "extension"
The ROM size is not as important as the RAM. I think it will not affect the performance of the networking. So you can go ahead with the AX6 if it is suitable for your application. Thanks.
Hey! Thanks for all your videos and tutorials! It helped so much! I have one question. I recenty bought redmi ax6 router. In my home I have 25 devices connected to network (10 are connected via LAN cable through gigabit lan switch). Router worked perfectly, but after I paired devices with static IP (10 or so devices had assigned static IP on AX6) router started to act wierd. Wifi crashed down, I had to reset router every time... I tired changing channel of 2.4G wifi to less congested (I tried also wifi optimization on MiWifi phone app), nothing helped. After that I reset (factory reset) and didn't assign static IPs to devices and works fine. Do you have any idea?
I'm not sure of this problem. Make sure you don't have ip conflicts between other devices of your Network. Assigning static IPs using the router should work, not sure why it's creating problems. The router should actually assign the same IP for the same MAC address of the device even if it's set to automatic assignment. If static ip is not working then you can try to get the automatic IP of the connected devices and use it for your purpose. Thanks.
@@DSmartLife thanks man. Yes, obviously there is some sort of conflict,but not IP address...I couldn't figure it out. I have quite a few devices connected to router for smart home, maybe there are some faulty 🤔
Hi Bro. I assume you are from Singapore. Can you confirm if in case of starhub can this router can be connected directly to the Optical Network terminal (ONT) . (Without using the existing router).
I'm in South Korea. Sorry I can't answer your query. Please check the hardware zone sg forum. If people can use AX3600 or other Xiaomi WiFi 6 routers with your ISP then this router can also be used. Thanks.
Good afternoon, I wanted to ask you if you could tell me which is the page to download the global firmware to visit it from time to time to see if they put the one of our router
There is no website where we can check regularly for global firmware. We just have to check forums. I have a program (python code) to check the firmware link.
Hey, thanks for the review and all the work, I found it very useful. 💪💪👏👏 Do you know maybe if the redmi ax6 router has PoE ports or if it is possible to connect PoE camer🤞
Can you recommend any router WiFi 6 with USB port for Hard drive plug in so that i can backup my security cameras data and also play videos from it to my Android TV on same wifi network..
The Redmi AX6 performs a little better than the Huawei AX3 Pro (Chinese version). The range performance is like this: Mi Ax3600 > Redmi AX6 > Huawei AX3 Pro. But note that the Huawei AX3 Pro that I have here is the Chinese version, which is more powerful than the EU (International) AX3 Pro. So Redmi AX6 will be definitely better than the Huawei AX3 Pro EU version. Thanks.
@@DSmartLife infact I want to buy the china only version of AX3 PRO cuz I have heard that is more powerful , but I'm really confused, not forget to mention that AX6 is more expensive.
I'll make the comparison video when I find time. Anyways as I mentioned before AX6 is slightly better in performance and runs cooler. But AX3 Pro is cheaper, so if you need more performance/range, go for AX6 otherwise AX3 Pro is also a good choice. Thanks.
Hi, could you do a comparison between all this and the AX5 and AX1800? I'm about to buy a AX3600 and one of the other 3 for a mesh network, but I wanna know about range and speed of all of them... Or if maybe it's better to buy 3 of the cheaper models. I would love to buy 2 AX3600, but I think it's out of my price range...
I would suggest at least 1 AX3600 to be your main router. The AX3600 has the most powerful signal amplifiers than all the rest. And you can add one of the three based on your requirement. But you are right, 3 of the cheaper AX1800/AX5 may offer the same coverage. 2 AX3600s may not be necessary though speaking from the price point. Thanks.
My main ISP router is a simple gigabit router and i am using it as the main router with DHCP function. I have bought a new Redmi AX6 to use as an access point. How can I set it up as an access point right from the start? Thanks.
You have to select the Wired Repeater Mode during the setup. First connect the Ethernet cable from your main router to the WAN port of the AX6. If you are using the MiWiFi app then you can select "More Options" during the setup steps. Check this video where I have shown this option: ruclips.net/video/YqyJTToN4dM/видео.html. Thanks.
@@DSmartLife Thanks for the quick reply! Managed to get disable DHCP! Now my main router has assigned a IP address for this router - I see this under internet information - do I have to change the internet settings below to Static IP and the default gateway and subnet mask? or leave it as DHCP? Thanks
Hello my friend , i have a question , i just installed the ax6 rooter that i received , but i'm seeing smth really strange , why there an hidden SSID , where can I enable it , and what is that ?
I could not understand your problem properly. I am guessing it is related to WiFi SSID not visible on certain devices. Please set the WiFi channels according to your location as per the information given here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels. Thanks.
@@DSmartLife hahahaha , you didn't understand me nothing , I will try to explain you . I have buyed Redmi AX6 yesterday came in my post here in Albania , I installed the router , and I set both 2.4GHZ and 5 GHZ at the same SSID (concurent mode) , till now is ok , but I'm seeing a strange thing the router has an hidden SSID , I have an app installed that shows that my router has 2.4 GHZ , 5 GHZ , and an Hidden SSID in 2.4 GHZ non encrypted , this ssid I can see only throw Wifi analyzer apps , I wanna know if you have any idea what it might be?
The hidden SSID is for the Easy WiFi Connect. To remove the hidden SSID - enable first the "Easy WiFi Connect", then wait for a few seconds, then disable it again. This is a bug. I hope they fix this on the next firmware update. The Hidden SSID should not be broadcasted unless the Easy WiFi Connect is enabled. But somehow, it's broadcasted, hence you need to disable it twice, including when you reboot the router.
Hi, great videos man! i bought AX3600 Global as the main router and now i got the AX6 Chinese as a mesh. However i can't seem to be able to setup the AX6 as mesh. Did a reset of AX6 and tried to look for mesh nodes on the AX3600 interface and it couldnt find it. could be related to Global and china version being not compatible?? Please suggest a solution thanks!
Tried installing the the latest miwifiapp beta from your link and its recognizing the AX6 and the Ax3600. however is unable to pair the AX3600. after entering password it says Pairing failed. I guess because its global?... please let me know if have knowledge on how to solve this. BTW: Both are on latest version. ax6 is 10.0.0.18
I have heard about this problem, I think it is mainly due to the difference in router regions. Xiaomi Routers have different servers for different regions. The AX1800 is only available in the Chinese Server. You may have to change the AX3600 region to China. Thanks.
@@DSmartLife I didn't have China on the list for global. I think. Anyway sold the ax3600 and I'm getting another ax6 China for mesh. Actually better reception now with single ax6... I think China version has stronger transmission? Maybe global is more limiting because of European standards
@@dordor201 Yes it's one possibility that the Global firmware has some limitations. However you can simply install the Chinese Firmware on the AX3600 if you want. The hardwares seem to be the same in both global and Chinese. Thanks.
Hi! I'm using AX6 as main(host) while 1 AX5 & 1 Ax1800 as mesh nodes. Always experience WIFI connection disconnected and re-connected minutes later. While this happening, message with "Obtaining IP address" and kind of frustrating. All with latest firmware. Anyone can assist?
It does have a firewall to prevent suspicious activities and user access control. But I am not sure that it has DOS attack prevention, etc. There is no specific mention of those services. Thanks.
Range and performance wise both are similar. AX6 seems to run cooler though. The Huawei AI Life App is better than Mi WiFi App. If you can get the AX3 Pro global Version, you can get English web interface but the AX6 is still Chinese. However, Xiaomi/Redmi routers run on a modified OpenWRT firmware and their official firmwares are open unlike Huawei. So later you can upgrade to the global version or OpenWRT support may come in the future. For me AX6 is more suitable because of the firmware. You can decide based on your requirements. Thanks.
@@DSmartLife ruclips.net/video/lC0ot7jdd-0/видео.html AX3 PRO is much better than AX6 , even the AX1800 is better than AX6 , I'm very disappointed for my choice
@@ALBMEDIA Wow their results are quite surprising. Even though I don't understand what he is telling in Chinese, the numbers are a surprise. Its little hard to believe that AX1800 and AX5 are better. AX6 is usually thought to be comparable to AX3600 and AX3 Pro. You can check the ACWiFi results here: www.acwifi.net/?s=ax6. The performances are quite comparable and even more powerful 5GHz performance than TP link AX5400 (XDR5430) with some network chips (like QCA6391). So I think the tests are really dependent on the device used. Moreover, in their comparison post Vs AX3600 ACWiFi has also certified that "the AX3 Pro is not as fast as the Redmi AX6" (translated from Chinese). So, I don't think you should be disappointed. Thanks.
I bought the AX6 router as an future router to extend the mesh network. Meanwhile I am using this router as a repeater for my DLINK main router. I have replaced the MII 4A router with AX6 and the problem started. Many disconnection problems. The problem spreads to my main router and I have to power cycle both the main and the AX6 router (defined as a repeater). With the old MII 4A router I did not have any problem. I expect XIAOMI to fix the current firmware 1.00.018 problems. I had the same on 1.00.16 firmware version. Did you try this router as a wifi repeater ?
I am sorry for the problem. I have not used AX6 as a repeater since it has the mesh function. There may be some incompatibility with the DLINK router due to the different Wi-Fi protocols. You can try making AX6 as the main router and DLINK as the repeater. Other possible solutions could be disabling WiFi 6 feature in AX6 and trying again. Thanks for your comments.
Thanks for the respond. Do you have an idea how & where can I apply to technical support of XIAOMI? It is a good idea to report the problem and may be Redmi/XIAOMI will fix the AX6 repeater problem in future releases.
Hi. I have bought the ax3600 and the redmi router. My idea is to use the ax3600 as main router and the redmi as mesh wifi I have a lots of xiaomi smart home gadgets paired to mainland China. Have paired the ax3600 in the Mihome. Is it posible to set the ax3600 to Denmark as region and still use the xiaomi Mihome to easy setup the smart home? Every time i try to change region, IT does not allow my to change to Denmark ☹️
For the Router, you should use the MiWiFi App. It's a separate app and can be used to fully control the router. There is also a Translated version of the app that has more features, link is in the description. You can use the Mi Home for your smart home devices. Change of region could be difficult. Thanks for your comments.
Yes you are right. There are a few differences between the AX6 and AX3600. The AX3600 has slightly more powerful signal amplifier chips than AX6. So it depends, if you think that AX6 is enough for covering your space then you can go for it. However the coverage difference is not much between the two. May be the AX6 is more budget friendly and you can go for it. Thanks.
Awesome like all the videos you make. Good work, i feel like ax6 is a good option for the price, the differentes in normal use is not too different. I Want to say that i have ax3600 and im very happy
Yes, as I said in the video, out of the 4 ethernet ports, one is a WAN port and 3 are LAN ports. However, if the router is in Wireless mesh or repeater mode, all the 4 ports can be used as a LAN. Thanks.

I do not have the Mi AC2100 to compare to but I guess Redmi AX6 has more range as it has more antennas and more number of amplifiers. And Xiaomi AX routers have Mesh function to extend range. You can also check out the new Mi AC2350 ruclips.net/video/tMMZIRb1Ue4/видео.html as it has more range than others.
@@charlottelinlin5016 The setup steps are the same as given in my video: ruclips.net/video/FZWEk_PSg6s/видео.html. The steps are applicable for Mi AX3600/AX1800 and Redmi AX5, AX6. Thanks.

@@DSmartLife im using Redmi AX6 Wi-Fi 6, idont know how but when i setup router using your guide the app worked with samsung s7 edge like charm, now after 4 month i changed phones to oneplus8t and mi9, and yours (english) miwifi app and one from goole store dont detect router. it says "No new unpaired Mi router was detected'
If you have already set up your router once before, you can't pair it again. Just login to your Mi account to which you paired the router before and it should automatically come up in the app. Thanks.

@@ALBMEDIA Wow their results are quite surprising. Even though I don't understand what he is telling in Chinese, the numbers are a surprise. Its little hard to believe that AX1800 and AX5 are better. AX6 is usually thought to be comparable to AX3600 and AX3 Pro. You can check the ACWiFi results here: www.acwifi.net/?s=ax6. The performances are quite comparable and even more powerful 5GHz performance than TP link AX5400 (XDR5430) with some network chips (like QCA6391). So I think the tests are really dependent on the device used. Moreover, in their comparison post Vs AX3600 ACWiFi has also certified that "the AX3 Pro is not as fast as the Redmi AX6" (translated from Chinese). So, I don't think you should be disappointed. Thanks.
I bought the AX6 router as an future router to extend the mesh network. Meanwhile I am using this router as a repeater for my DLINK main router. I have replaced the MII 4A router with AX6 and the problem started. Many disconnection problems. The problem spreads to my main router and I have to power cycle both the main and the AX6 router (defined as a repeater). With the old MII 4A router I did not have any problem. I expect XIAOMI to fix the current firmware 1.00.018 problems. I had the same on 1.00.16 firmware version. Did you try this router as a wifi repeater ?
I am sorry for the problem. I have not used AX6 as a repeater since it has the mesh function. There may be some incompatibility with the DLINK router due to the different Wi-Fi protocols. You can try making AX6 as the main router and DLINK as the repeater. Other possible solutions could be disabling WiFi 6 feature in AX6 and trying again. Thanks for your comments.
Thanks for the respond. Do you have an idea how & where can I apply to technical support of XIAOMI? It is a good idea to report the problem and may be Redmi/XIAOMI will fix the AX6 repeater problem in future releases.
Hi. I have bought the ax3600 and the redmi router.
My idea is to use the ax3600 as main router and the redmi as mesh wifi
I have a lots of xiaomi smart home gadgets paired to mainland China.
Have paired the ax3600 in the Mihome. Is it posible to set the ax3600 to Denmark as region and still use the xiaomi Mihome to easy setup the smart home?
Every time i try to change region, IT does not allow my to change to Denmark ☹️
For the Router, you should use the MiWiFi App. It's a separate app and can be used to fully control the router. There is also a Translated version of the app that has more features, link is in the description. You can use the Mi Home for your smart home devices. Change of region could be difficult. Thanks for your comments.
Could you make comparison wifi range speedtest between Redmi AX6 and Xiaomi AX3600?
I have compared the range and speed at 8:15. Please check the results. AX3600 has better range but AX6 isn't bad. Thanks.
Hi where is your location. Is th 5Ghz channels are recognized by US phones?
I'm in Korea. I think it will support US phones. The router supports many channels and recently the AX3600 has been announced globally. Thanks.
If i have 2 or 3 Redmi ax6, can it create whole home mesh network?
Yes you can.
I'm planning to setup mesh ax3600 - ax5/ax6 via cable. Is it possible?
Yes it is possible to use an Ethernet Backhaul mesh with those routers. Thanks.
Hello what is the best stuff to buy between ax5/ax6/ax3 pro i have 980 Mbits internet
I'll suggest Redmi AX6 or the Mi AX3600. Thanks.
@@DSmartLife price ax6 better than ax4600
Yes you are right. There are a few differences between the AX6 and AX3600. The AX3600 has slightly more powerful signal amplifier chips than AX6. So it depends, if you think that AX6 is enough for covering your space then you can go for it. However the coverage difference is not much between the two. May be the AX6 is more budget friendly and you can go for it. Thanks.
Awesome like all the videos you make.
Good work, i feel like ax6 is a good option for the price, the differentes in normal use is not too different.
I Want to say that i have ax3600 and im very happy
Yes Redmi AX6 a good option but AX3600 is a great router. Thanks for your comments.
It have only 3 ethernet port (only 3 devices can be connected), not 4 ethernet port. One of them is an input port.
Yes, as I said in the video, out of the 4 ethernet ports, one is a WAN port and 3 are LAN ports. However, if the router is in Wireless mesh or repeater mode, all the 4 ports can be used as a LAN. Thanks.
@@DSmartLife You are 100% right !

I need longer conection, it is better tan ac2100?
I do not have the Mi AC2100 to compare to but I guess Redmi AX6 has more range as it has more antennas and more number of amplifiers. And Xiaomi AX routers have Mesh function to extend range. You can also check out the new Mi AC2350 ruclips.net/video/tMMZIRb1Ue4/видео.html as it has more range than others.
I can use two redmi ax 6 in mesh???
Yes you can. You can configure upto 4 of any Xiaomi or Redmi WiFi 6 routers in a mesh. Thanks.
Is it compatible to TP link Dexo m5 mesh?
No it doesn't. Compatible with only Xiaomi WiFi 6 routers. Thanks.
Can i use Mi AX3600 as main router and the mesh are AX1800
Yes you can do so. Thanks.
Thanks, but what are the compatible mesh of my AX3600?
@@charlottelinlin5016 it's compatible with Redmi AX5, AX6 and Mi AX1800. It may be compatible with future WiFi6 routers from Xiaomi. Thanks.
Please make a video making ur AX3600 as main router and the other xiaomi is a mesh please, thanks
@@charlottelinlin5016 The setup steps are the same as given in my video: ruclips.net/video/FZWEk_PSg6s/видео.html. The steps are applicable for Mi AX3600/AX1800 and Redmi AX5, AX6. Thanks.
Hopefully openwrt comes out for these devices, and soon
I hope the same. OpenWRT will be great. Thanks for your comment!
@@DSmartLife already on their wifi ac /ac wave 2. Too bad ddwrt went kaput for all intensive purposes

Yes, it can be used anywhere. Thanks.
Nice exolanation bro
Thank you for your support.
Is there an English firmware for ax6?
Not yet, I haven't got it. They haven't announced it internationally yet. Thanks.
Can this router have OpenVPN server so I can get contact to home remotely?
There is no server option. But you can set up a vpn client thanks.
Are these routers work anywhere in the world?
Is AX 3600 router compatible with Spectrum Modem?
I don't have that Modem to test. But if your modem has an Ethernet port as the Internet output, then the Router should work. Thanks.
@@DSmartLife Thanks it does have ethernet port. I talked to spectrum people they said it will work.
Great to know. Thanks for your comments.
아수스 AX 공유기랑 비교해주실 수 있을까요?
죄송합니다. Asus 라우터가 없습니다. 나중에 받으면 꼭 비교해보겠습니다. 감사합니다.
Sorry, I do not have the Asus router. If I get it in the future, I will surely compare. Thanks.
Does it have vlan tagging?
Sorry, it doesn't have VLAN tagging. Thanks.
Can we add a child node without resetting it first?
No, you need to reset the child.
ax1800 vs ax6 compare thanks
Hi there! Is it possible to configure it as an access point?
Yes, you can setup a manual AP mode. Please check this video: ruclips.net/video/F8c4V1_6eik/видео.html. Thanks.
Thanks
ethernet cable not included?
No, Ethernet cable is not included with Redmi Routers. Ethernet Cables are included with Xiaomi AX1800/3600. Thanks.
My redmi ac2100 come with ethernet cable. If you have time check out this comparison www.acwifi.net/11219.html Thanks for your reply
No global firmware yet?
Not yet. They haven't announced it internationally, once they do we can expect. I'll post any updates as soon as I get them. Thanks.
Sadly latency is not in comparison when is the most important for me
Nice 👍
Thank you for your support!
Why your MiWifi App looks so diferent? you have more options than mi app!
Yes it's different from the standard version. It is the translated version of the Chinese MiWiFi App. The download link is in the video description. I have featured it in my previous videos. Thanks.
Far from the theorical 2402Mbps in 5ghz.
Why MiWifi app can't finde mi router?
Please disable mobile data, connect to the AX6 router's WiFi and set your region to china in the app. It should detect. Thanks.
@@DSmartLife i am using your translated app, but when router is not conected there are no option to change regiona in app :/
@@arunassablevicius817 Which router do you have? It should work with the Chinese version AX6. Thanks.
@@DSmartLife im using Redmi AX6 Wi-Fi 6, idont know how but when i setup router using your guide the app worked with samsung s7 edge like charm, now after 4 month i changed phones to oneplus8t and mi9, and yours (english) miwifi app and one from goole store dont detect router. it says "No new unpaired Mi router was detected'
If you have already set up your router once before, you can't pair it again. Just login to your Mi account to which you paired the router before and it should automatically come up in the app. Thanks.
