    Hi,

    I need your help.
    Which router should I choose from Inea for 1Gb / s symmetric fiber?

    I want the router to work as a bridge + reasonable wi-fi, minimum 5 LAN outputs

    Any of you will advise?

    Below is a list:
    Huawei EG8245Q optical modem
    Optical Genexis Titanium-48 modem
    Optical modem Nokia XS-250WX-A
    Optical modem Nokia G-240W-C
    Optical modem Alcatel-Lucent / Nokia G-240W-A
    Huawei EchoLife HG8245H / HG8247H GPON Terminal optical modem
    Optical modem ZTE F680
    Optical modem Alcatel I-241W-S
    GPON I-240G-P optical modem
    GPON I-241G-Q optical modem

    But why do you need an optical modem. After all, the provider will provide a fiber optic terminal and at 99.9% will not let you have your own. You need a decent cable router with WiFi or a separate WIFi, depending on where it is supposed to work - an apartment, a house, an office.

    For now, I suggest the Nokia G-240W-C optical modem for the Internet.
    The problem is that I have a monolithic ceiling (reinforced concrete) and this modem will not cover the entire apartment. I also have a Netger R6400 AC private router.
    I do not know if Nokia works in the bridge function or if I connect Netger, it will be Wi-Fi from Nokia. Is only a bridge from noki and Wi-Fi from Netger. How to embrace whole-home Wi-Fi using these two devices? Sorry, but I'm green in IT topics :)

    It's not a modem, it's a router.

    From the Nokia Quick Start Guide:
    "The device works in Dual-Band mode, which means it works in two
    different radio bands (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) simultaneously. "

    Where the signal does not reach, it will be too slow - local additional AP connected by a cable, either with Nokia or Netgear.
    When it comes out, only the fairy Magda knows at this stage - and really what you can do, you will know when you start it.

    Hardware version of this Netgear v1:
    CPU1: Broadcom BCM4708A0 (800 MHz, 2 cores)
    FLA1: 128 MiB (Macronix MX30LF1G08AA-TI)
    RAM1: 256 MiB (Samsung K4B2G1646Q-BCK0)

    Hardware version of this Netgear v2:
    CPU1: Broadcom BCM4708C0 (1 GHz, 2 cores)
    FLA1: 128 MiB (Spansion S34ML01G200TFI00)
    RAM1: 256 MiB (Samsung K4B2G1646F-BCK0)

    The dual-core processor may be a bit too weak and the RAM may not be enough.

    Why connect in a bridge? You connect them using twisted-pair cable, set Netgear as AP, and you have the same network throughout the house

    Hello.
    As I see the symmetrical 1Gb / s theme and texts like "reasonable wifi" it turns me on. With this bandwidth (speed), we are talking about really cool equipment (transmitting and receiving). Unless the author accepts that, for example, in the room with the router / ap, he will not reach the full speed of the Wi-Fi connection anyway (not even mentioning what will be behind the wall).
    Once, I took on the problem ... 4-story building, 120 m2 per floors and a minimum of 500Mb / s with wifi in each room (staircases, etc. omitted; and at least 2 antennas installed). There is no bad chaff at access points!
    Now I wonder. When a friend has 2x more and starts asking for wifi.
    What does the author really expect? What speeds, where etc.

    Hi,

    I expect reasonable speeds so that I do not turn when I open pages on a phone / tablet.
    Downloading, streaming will be over the cable (it is possible that netflix / hbo go / etc will be watched from time to time on mobile devices also via wi-fi)

    in the so-called 4 wi-fi devices in the house, all cables that can be connected will be connected with a cable.
    I am asking for help in this respect :)

    No server will send you website data at 1 Gb / s. Probably not even 500mbit / s, I would bet closer to 100mbit. You don't need that much for netflix either. It will depend on the signal level you cover the whole apartment / house with. Using, for example, one AP on too large an area will cause you to "twist" places, even if you have WiFi at the AP itself and 500mbit / s after that. You should focus more on it, buying the right amount of AP, and not trying to have 500mbit / s and not 300mbit / s. From 300mbit it will not turn you.

    I probably asked the question wrong - I'm not an IT specialist.
    my goal is not 1Gb over wi-fi.

    on the ground floor there will be Nokia proposed from Inea (here the question is whether it is suitable or is it different - better equipment at Inea?)
    at the top, the mentioned netger

    the cable will be connected to: receiver, TV, alarm, PoE cameras (via a switch), computer - maybe a printer, additional two computers, NAS server, console,

    probably everything :) , rather, in 5/10 years I will not connect a washing machine, vacuum cleaner, microwave oven; fridge, probably like this:]

    after your comments, the topic begins to straighten out for me :)

    You forgot that if it is to be good, the upper AP should also be connected with the cable. This is an absolute must if your wifi is supposed to work well.
    How does Nokia work, I can't say because I didn't have it in my hands.
    Personally, instead of a "fancy" router, I would buy a better access point, if you do not need additional RJ45 ganizd there.

    I did not write, it is logical :)
    netger is here so it will not change it for anything else - it's a pity for the money

    I think the replies have been exhausted.
    no one advised which router / modem to fight with Inea.

    it's best to walk around your neighbors and research.
    the above comments were partially helpful.

    thanks

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around selecting an appropriate router for a 1Gb/s symmetrical fiber connection from Inea. Users express concerns about the need for a reliable optical modem that can function as a bridge and provide reasonable Wi-Fi coverage, with a minimum of five LAN outputs. The Nokia G-240W-C is suggested as a potential option, but users also discuss the limitations of Wi-Fi coverage in concrete environments and the importance of using additional access points (APs) for optimal performance. The conversation highlights the necessity of connecting devices via Ethernet for better speeds and suggests that the choice of equipment should align with the user's specific needs, including streaming and multiple device connections. Overall, the emphasis is on ensuring adequate Wi-Fi coverage and the right configuration for a home network.
