  • Very good router with Wi-fi 6
Style: WiFi 6 | AX5400 | Gaming
This is a fantastic router. I had an Apple AirPort Extreme that seemed to be working fine so I thought there was no need to upgrade. 2020 hit and my kids ended up doing school from home while I worked from home. While I had never experienced any issues, the kids were having connection issues during Zoom meetings with their classes. I have 1 gigabit internet speed through Comcast/Xfinity and had never seen much more than 550mbps over Wi-fi but figured it was a limitation of the devices I was using. Between seeing the low (for the plan) speeds and the kids having Zoom issues, I decided to get a Wi-fi 6 compatible router. I did a bunch of research and this was one of the highest rated ones and I had my friend, a Sr. Network Engineer, look over the specs and he was impressed by it and now wants to get one. I bought it and set it up. Setup was very easy and intuitive so the router was up and running in just minutes. The ASUS app is user friendly as well. While most devices on my network aren’t Wi-fi 6 compatible, my iPad and iPhone both are. I was able to get up to 892mbps with this new router on my phone and up to 901mpbs on my iPad Pro, both of course over Wi-fi. My kids also both have not had a single issue with Zoom meeting connections after the upgrade. This router was money well spent, especially with a smart home full of devices connected, me working from home, and my kids both on Chrome books doing school from home. If you are considering this router, I hope you find this review helpful. I would absolutely buy this router if I had it to do again. It has been running flawlessly for a few months now and has been putting our gigabit service to good use. Oh, and range... The router is located in the middle of our home and we have a detached garage which gets a nice strong signal and a detached shed maybe 100 feet from the router through a few walls and across the yard that has a Wi-fi camera mounted to it which receives a good signal and allows for streaming from the camera so I find the range to be very good. ... show more

  • Replaced Netgear AX5400
Style: WiFi 6 | AX5400 | Gaming
Our house has been filling up with many wifi 6 devices so early in the year, we finally transitioned to a wifi6 capable router, the Netgear AX5400. In short summary, the ASUS AX5400 is better in every possible way than the Netgear it replaced, even with both being AX5400 speed. Stability: This was my absolute number 1 priority and requirement for a wireless router. The ASUS has been rock solid and stable. All devices connect without issue and do not drop. The Netgear would randomly drop a device for no reason at all, logs never showed anything. The ASUS router has never randomly rebooted and lost internet. The Netgear would randomly lose internet until a forced reset. The stability issues with the Netgear was driving my family and me crazy and this was the reason we got the ASUS. I'm very meticulous about our settings and firmware updates so I understood very well how to setup each router. The Netgear just wasn't very stable. Speed: The ASUS 5Ghz speeds are very fast as expected. The speeds are pretty much identical to the Netgear it replaced. The 2.4Ghz speeds are actually slightly slower than the Netgear, but I actually do not mind, the only 2.4Ghz devices I have are smart plugs, sensors and other IOT devices which don't require bandwidth BUT they do need stability, which the ASUS provides. Range: The ASUS range is MUCH better than the Netgear on both 2.4 and 5 Ghz. The Netgear would have barely any signal while I'm in the garage (furthest point from the router). The ASUS has a Good signal and even has signal when sitting in the car in my driveway, outside of the garage, which is much further from the router. Our entire backyard has good signal. We considered using AI mesh but now I don't think it's even necessary. Gaming: Not sure what gaming mode adds but I tested ping times to a game server. With a wired connection, it is a solid 15-20ms. With wifi6 wireless laptop 2 rooms away, it is still 15-20ms. But turning gaming mode off still gave us the same ping, so not sure what it actually enhances or not. Interface: The ASUS web interface and android app is miles ahead of Netgear. The Netgear web interface looks like an old ASP web app without even the full set of options available. The ASUS android app is very clean and easy to use and has all the "most used options" only a button click away. They obviously have done usability studies. The Netgear app looks much better than their web interface but takes forever to connect to the router. Conclusion: The ASUS AX5400 is a much better router than the Netgear AX5400. I don't know if Netgear's firmware need more work or whatever but the comparison isn't even close, in my opinion. ... show more
