Looking at Cudy TR3000v1 and Asus RT-AX52
Both seem to have the same MT7981BA
Both seem to have the same 128 ROM
Cudy TR3000v1 has 512 RAM. Asus RT-AX52 has 256 RAM.
Performance wise in wired only (no wireless) should they both be similar? How about the potential heat?
EDIT: RAM correction, GL-MT3000 has fan and not cudy TR3000. I look at too many devices...
TR3000 got 512MB RAM.
no, it doesn't.
they should.
Look to: Cudy WR3000S / WR3000H / WR3000P
Similar price bracket
multi-port
RT-AX52 35€, WR3000S 50€, WR3000H 60€
dual port/travel
R3S 47€ (better SOC), TR3000 60€
If only R3S had 3 ports …
where in EU are you, WR3000S is 35€ in DE, WR3000H is 41€, WR3000E and WR3000 are 32€.
use https://toh.openwrt.org/?view=hardware, put MT7981 in the CPU field, or browse https://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/targets/mediatek/filogic/.
it'll obviously not show you any prices, but the hw using the same SoC.
