Great router, handles a lot of traffic, great app management, very configurable!
Great router!! Handles a lot of devices! No downtime! I am sad to say I had to replace this router. I think a power surge got the LAN port/switch side of the device. The wifi and 2.5Gb LAN ports never stopped working. Only wired devices lost connectivity. I replaced it with another ASUS router. The interface from a web browser and from the app are 2nd to none in my opinion. Has the LAN ports not stopped working, I would have never replaced it. We run an average of 30-35 devices. This router handled it well. The range was great. I kept it in the basement and you could pick up wifi (2.4 ghz) radio with no problems. I highly recommend ASUS routers! Asus has a lot of options and is very configurable. The options run deep, but these are options. It is very easy for a beginner because no fancy configurations are necessary. You can plug and play the router without getting into the many menus of control that you get with it! ... show more

ASUS ROG GT-AX6000 - Easy setup, Very good WiFi range but equal speed performance as ISP equipment
I recently moved into an area that offered 1.2GB download speeds. I was using the service provider equipment at a cost of $25 additional per month. The equipment was an all in one modem+router which also had a 2.5g port. In an effort to save some money, I decided to purchase and invest in a new Router and Modem for the service. The caveat being that I will lose out on Unlimited data using my own equipment which was a risk I was willing to take. I bought the AX6000 to pair with a Arris S33 2.5g port Surfboard Modem as the AX6000 has a 2.5g port as well. The Asus AX6000 packaged arrived pristine with no physical damage. Setup - be very careful with the Antennas, I noticed that one my antennas for the router was not tightening properly, you have to ensure you can adjust without breaking the antenna. I noticed my antenna sounded like it was about to break as I was adjusting to access the bottom of the antenna to tighten. The process to get the Router up and running was a breeze, I used my sons Desktop PC hard wired into the 2.5G port and the browser recognized the router pretty quickly. Once my Arris S33 modem was activated, the router acquired the IP very quickly. At this point once I acquired the IP, I immediately did a speed test and....the speed remained the same as the ISP rental equipment. I did not lose out on speed; ISP equipment speedtest was 914GB down and 25up and with the Asus AX6000+Arris S33 was equally the same. I was hoping to at least get some increase in speed (this test was wired). I continued with my setup and began to open ports for my sons games. I noticed that the interface has port forwarding in two areas which was a bit confusing, I used the gaming section to port forward and i believe i have set it up correctly as i did not receive and conflict notification. Also, this is limited to a max of 38 ports. I am not sure what is the difference between the Gaming NAT section and the Port Forwarding section of the router and I found this to be confusing. WiFi Range seemed to be very good and I did see a slight improvement in range against the ISP rental Modem+Router. My laptop would struggle with zoom calls when i used it outside in my backyard, I did not test zoom with the new router in that area but i noticed the wifi status bar on my laptop improved. I have a number of devices that are on WiFi IoT's + Gaming Consoles. Xbox Series X download speeds are equally the same as the rental equipment and no decrease in speed or increase unfortunately. Overall I am happy with the Asus AX6000 but I was hoping for a bit of speed boost for 2.5G port. Even the dedicated gaming port did not improve this. I was going to give it 4 stars for that but so far it's remained stable with not decrease in performance so that will keep it at 5 stars for now. Bonus: In my previous location, I had 2 Asus AX-3000 routers which i kept, these were being used with AT&T's Modem in Passthrough. I decided to put these in Mesh Mode with the AX6000, this was extremely easy to do. I now have 1 AX3000 in my Laundry and 1 in the master bedroom. Devices seem to hop from the mesh without problem and I have increase range all throughout the home. ... show more

Was dissappointed... But Asus said Happy Thanksgiving :D
Edit: I ordered this again on Saturday, once I saw Asus pushed a firmware update on Thanksgiving after seeing they also recently update the firmware on the XT8s recently. (The almost 100 off retail also pushed me to grab it) As another reviewer confirmed, this firmware fixed the upload speed issue with Fios (obviously I couldn't narrow the issue originally, hehe). I can now recommend the router. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Original Review: To preface, I was using an Asus XT8 already and it's been great. I wanted to get a little ahead of Fios (hopefully) rolling out multigig speeds in my area, along with going with some Unifi waps for wifi. With this being said, the current issues that I and other users are having, seem to apply regardless of you even having 1gbps or 100mbps upload speeds, again at least with Verizon Fios. The literal only issue I see with this router is the 2.5g wan port. The max my upload would hit 4-40mbps. After using the router for a few days, I jumped on a call with Verizon and confirmed that there was nothing special that would need to be done to get this to work at full upload speeds. I had an old Nighthawk too, came right up, full gig speeds. I tried restarting the ONT to see if that would correct the issue but nogo. So, it doesn't really look like a Verizon Fios issue. Some users got around this by enabling dual wan with a lan port acting as wan, but that defeats the literal purpose of "upgrading" to this router. I would honestly be relieved in the future if this was just a firmware issue but for users with a similar setup (Fios), I don't think it's ready. I've seen online reviewers getting far greater speeds so maybe it's even a hardware issue that a replacement would correct, but I don't have the time to jerk around with this right now so I'd rather just refund it and wait and see in the future if this is corrected. Otherwise, the router works like any other current gen Asus router, just with a gamery skin and some other gamer focused QOS settings, which is a welcomed inclusion The router looks great externally too. The giant strix logo on top is nice, since I have TUF gaming and Strix hardware around the house and lights up my network closet a little so it's not pitch black when I open the door. TLDR; I'm returning this strictly based on the upload speed on primary wan. Be weary and don't throw anything out if you buy this, at least until you can confirm speeds are working as they should. ... show more

Awesome router!
This is the first time ive biught a router in this price range and so far it is working great! Full strength wifi all throughout my 1600sqft home with no deadzones. even if there was it has a feature to create a mesh network with another compatible router which is pretty cool. The set up it very simple just download the app connect and it pretty much doesnt the rest itself. It has a feature i tested that reduces game ping and so far im seeing on average 3-5 ms faster speeds qnd only at the press of a button. It also allows me to use the full bandwith of my Gig internet. So far i defintely would buy another if given the chance the value is great compared to cheaper options. ... show more

Super Duper, speed and reliability! ASUS for the win!
After a couple years and few firmware updates...ASUS router still holding strong! First of all do not stay with 1 wifi signal, split between 2.4 & 5! So your 2.4 can easily find it, not having to determine! Mesh is EZ setup with another supported ASUS router! I pay for 800mb x 40mb and my current rig wired gets 954bm x 42mb! The 2.5 ports are awesome for FAST wired transfers! 90% of my house was covered and not with MESH its 125%! You can get down the block and still be on my wifi! I'm a tech expert so setup was super easy! If you are techy, let the web setup guide you through. TIP: sit the router as high as you can, this allows better coverage! ASUS is about the only brand that allows me to filter my wifi via MAC addresses! Keep on keepin on ASUS! ... show more

Of the 'con'sumer routers out there, this is one of the best
Bought this after Dong recommended it in one of his blog posts for the 2.5gbit throughput from wan to lan since our 600mbit comcast plan is over provisioned at almost 1.5gbits down. I flashed the Merlin open source firmware onto it almost immediately since I prefer the security and power user features of open source projects like OpenWrt and DD-wrt. Then I almost returned it as the wifi connection to our android phones disconnected/reconnected every 10 seconds plus numerous other software bugs, glitches and inability to setup any advanced features via cli. Turned out the problem wasn't the hardware. It was Merlin. That open source project is a useless joke compared to OpenWrt. I realize that Merlin is constrained by the closed source nature of the newer AX chips, but still I could not figure out what it added beyond what you can actually do since the stock firmware is Linux based and the GUI lets you set up SSH CLI access to a vast and complete set of Linux networking and firewall executables of which the GUI (stock or Merlin) barely scrapes the surface. IMO the ssh -> Linux access, which I have not seen in any other consumer grade router allows these to be turned into PROsumer network devices including multi vlan (port and 801q) support, outbound and inter-subnet firewall configs, dual wan, wan and lan port aggregation plus many more features unavailable on the 'consumer' grade crap. Decided to de-install Merlin and it could not be any more stable now. So not only decided to keep it, but I'm adding an additional AX86S as an access point with a 2gbit wired backhaul. My network consists of about 40ish wifi IoT devices, many more non wifi IoT, some streaming cams plus a lot of streamed TV, plus multiple phones and laptops that require network segmentation (a buzzword that is alien in the home user market). But the ASUS can do it if you are willing to roll up your sleeves and wrestle with the CLI. Having a professional network and software engineering background doesn't hurt, but it's easy enough to hire a skilled IT/Linux programmer to assist in configuring the enterprise grade features not supported by the GUI. IMO this ~$300 'consumer/gamer' router can be transformed into $1-2K enterprise grade security gateway, and it is one of the only consumer brands where the stock firmware allows (not to mention it is also one of the few remaining CONsumer brands that does not spy on you via required cloud accounts and phone apps just to configure the router) CLI access. All in all, on the surface it seems like a fairly good, 3.5 star product, but the hidden value with full access to Linux CLI networking commands like vlanctl, brctl, ifconfig, ip, iptables, ebtables, etc places the overall value off the charts. I should also mention that I was stupid enough to invest in a pair of Eero 6Es for my collection of insecure, spyware IoT devices. Having the Asus sitting in front of and firewalling those privacy invading nightmares to block ET from phoning home to China could not be more golden in my book. ... show more

This device has top end hardware for consumers.
Updates at the bottom: I’ve purchased this router twice but I ultimately wanted a different set of features. I first purchased this router 2 months ago and love the dual 2.5Gb ports as I have AT&T fiber 2 Gbps tier. I returned it a week or so later. I purchased the router again recently trying to give it a chance with the hardware specs. Ultimately, the router didn’t fit my network needs. After research, Merlin wouldn’t have met my needs either. The good: If you are a gamer, this’ll be great for low lag. Easy setup for dual WAN. Fast CPU that handles all tasks you can throw at it. It’s got nice RBG. I’m not into that so it can be turned off. Wifi is strong and stable. Too many features to list. The bad (in my opinion): Traffic history lacks several options. I like to get info on hours/days/weeks and which devices uses the data. The Traffic Analyzer can take up to 5% of your download peak in my testing. I like to set my reboot cycle monthly but the UI only gives the option of daily or weekly. If my network/internet goes down, I would like some type of notification from the router. This router lacks that feature. Conclusion: This will be a great router for many users but it did not work out for my needs. Update 12/22 Purchased the Synology 6600ax router in November and found that device lacking hardware wise, 1 USB and 1 single 2.5 GbE port. Solid software. Returned that router. Re-purchased the GT-AX6000 w/dual 2.5 GbE ports. After some tweaks and the latest 388.1 Firmware and Merlin, I'm satisfied enough to keep this device. The Software can be adapted/tweaked for my needs. The Hardware is solid and the best for future-proofing outside 6E/7 or Tri-Band that this router lacks. 5G Wifi speeds over 1Gbps at about 20 Ft is great. ... show more

Severe Firmware Problems - wait to buy
This seems to be a great router - for the short time I had it. Internal router speeds are fantastic, achieving 1.4 Gbps on my Comcast nominal 1.2 Gbps service using the router's internal speed test. Throughput seems to be equally speedy. From the little I used it, the Wi-Fi seems to be speedy as well, including good performance through walls and at longer distances. All of these measures are significantly better than the Asus RT-AX3000 router that I purchased to be an AiMesh node but is now serving as my primary router. In other words, worth the money if you have a busy internet in your household. I'm not a gamer, so I didn't test any of those features. BUT ... Don't buy it now until they fix the firmware. I purchased two of these from Amazon and both had the identical issue. After updates to the latest firmware, the router assigned DHCP addresses in the 149.168.x.x address range I assigned to the router when connecting via Wi-Fi, but assigned 10.0.0.x IP addresses belonging to the Comcast modem to clients connected via Ethernet. Connectivity to the AiMesh node also had significant problems. After consulting with Asus tech support, they thanked me for the complete (more than I'm writing here) problem description and said they'd get on it. How long will that take? Good question. You probably want to know the problem firmware revision. Oops, I already packed up the router for return. However, Asus told me that this being a relatively new product, this was the third version of firmware for this product: the original, first update in May, second update in June. This is my first experience with Asus routers and I'm really liking the UI and AiMesh features. So easy to set up, so easy to go as deep or as simple as you want. Sadly, this is the only Asus router that has 8 Ethernet ports plus wired backhaul. Which means I'm likely to purchase it again if they ever get the severe firmware bugs worked out. Looking at Asus router reviews, this seems to be a theme for Asus. At initial release and for as long as a year afterward, there are significant firmware bugs that can be showstoppers for many. Don't buy it now. Wait if you can. ... show more
