4100/6100 Base or Max

Cabledude

Thank you @JonathanLee. 8-9 seconds is in the same ballpark as 10-11. maybe I have more widgets than you, can't really tell from your screen shots, though the paintings are exceptionally spectacular.

I don't have a WiFi module inside the SG-2100, all cabled connections, which can't be slower than WiFi, probably faster. But I get the same dash loading times on my iPhone (connected to my LAN) so I suppose WiFi or cabled doesn't make a difference.

Could you list the widgets that you use?

@JonathanLee
Can you please tell me the model or better photo of the wifi module?

Compex WLE200NX. That's the only card I'm aware of that works in the 2100.

JonathanLee

@Stef93 like @stephenw10 said, it is the Compex card

@Cabledude for widgets I use . . .

2 ART
1 NTP
1 System information
1 Services Status
1 Installed Packages
1 Gateways

So with these 5 widgets you use (I didn’t select the two ART ones) I get 7 seconds. So I suppose our units perform similarly.

@stephenw10
is this adapter suitable for netgate 6100?
I don’t know if it’s a different version or model, but I found Compex WLE200NX 7A

Probably. Though without actually testing it I can't be sure. The 2100 has very specific limitations for the PCIe slot.
That appears to have the same fcc-id so I'd expected it to be close to identical.

@Stef93 the AR5BXB112 card works with the 6100 also and can use three antenna I think @stephenw10 I remember someone said it did, however it does not work with the 2100MAX

stephenw10

Yeah the 2100 has far more limitations mostly because it's arm based. The 6100 has none of those. Any card should work there as a PCIe device. The pfSense/FreeBSD wifi driver limitations still apply of course!
