However, I’ve just spotted the new TUF-AX6000, which seems to have most of the same specs as the GT-AX6000, except for less RAM (512MB v 1GB).

With BSS Coloring, your WiFi 6 router identifies its data with a unique channel tag ('color') that's different from neighboring networks. Each device shows its IP, how it is connected to the network and even further settings appear when touching the device icon such as bandwidth limiter and the option to block it completely or optimise the connection by setting the device to gaming or streaming, for example.The Devices tab lists all the connected devices, what current bandwidth they are using and any AiMesh devices. Using the web-based portal you have access to all the same settings but in a slightly easier to use format along with other settings not available on the app such as the VPN set up.
