  • The current leader in router technology! Reliable, easy to set up, great signal strength!
Style: WiFi 6E | AXE7800
I replaced two older routers with new releases. This router was amazing. Easy to set up and and it auto - optimized the network. [CELL PHONE REQUIRED!} I downloaded the app onto my ios phone and setup was complete in less than 5 minutes. AMAZING. I was so impressed. The second router (also a new release) by N took 30 minutes to set up. It also required a cell phone app to install and coverage was better than my older router. It was simply not in the same class as this router. This router was placed in the basement, and the N router was placed on the first floor of my two story home. Now I receive signal from both this router and the N router from an upstairs bedroom. I would only have purchased this router if I knew how much better it was when I purchased them both. Specs are set for 2030 network speeds so I won't need to upgrade again for quite a while. And I don't worry that my data is being sent to China from this unit. ... show more

  • Very good!
Style: WiFi 6E | AXE7800
This does what the specs call out. Super easy to hookup and add mesh nodes. Speed is great in dual band but does drop off in tri band due to not as strong of a signal through parts of the house. Coverage is fantastic with this 7800 and an Asus 1300 as backhual. Just remember, keep these cool with a laptop cooling pad and should last until upgrade time. ... show more

  • Great router, AI Mesh and VPN works
Style: WiFi 6E | AXE7800
Love this router. It works great with my Asus RT-AX57 to create a mesh network, single named network with automatic client handoff between the routers as users move about the house. I might eventually get a 3rd Asus router to connect another space detached from the house but for now making do with an older non-Asus router. The VPN with free DynDNS certificate from Let's Encrypt makes it so easy to set up. At first the free certificate seemed suspect to me, and looked into supplying my own, but upon more investigating Let's Encrypt is actually legit and is respectable in the industry and it is great that Asus provides it for free. I like having an free VPN option for when I am out and occasionally needing to use a public wifi for a longer length of time. ... show more

  • ASUS RT-BE88U WiFi 7 Router: finally a decent wifi7 router with 10gbe ports and a OK price
Style: WiFi 7 | BE7200 | Dual 10G Ports
So the one downside to this router is that it doesn't support the 6Ghz band. The (sort've) good news is that downside won't matter to most since not many wireless devices, other than the routers, supports that 6Ghz band as of mid-late 2024. AND the major wireless chipset OEM's don't seem interested in pushing that band all that hard in ANY devices for probably the next year or so. Uses too much power while also being rather short range and expensive to implement. In some countries its looking like it may not even get used ever due to potential interference issues! Also the very few devices that do support the 6Ghz band often do so in a way that causes issues since support is so poor in general. Issues which force you to either disable it anyways or cause large performance degradation in a real world setting. These issues also don't seem to be getting fixed any time soon either since apparently that support costs real money. On top of all that the 6Ghz band doesn't even matter all that much in a practical real world setting even if you can get it working with your devices since its rather short range only. Think a max range of 10' (so ~3m) or so at best typically for 6Ghz since the signal attenuates even more rapidly than 5Ghz band does. Basically nearly no one but a rarified few (the only practical real world scenario where it makes sense and could be used is for wireless backhaul links between different routers to form a short range but high speed mesh network....which is a nifty but very specialized application) should care about that 6Ghz band so that it isn't supported by this router won't be a issue for most and you can probably safely ignore it. The great news is the rest of the WiFi7 features are well supported and working great: 4K-QAM, MLO, and various anti signal congestion tech. +++THAT IS THE STUFF THAT ACTUALLY MATTERS IN WiFi7!!+++ It will make all your wireless devices work better together and will make them all, to varying degrees, faster due to improved signalling efficiency while doing it. That being said it won't work miracles. If you already have a good WiFi6 or 6E router I'd probably keep it so long as its working fine. WiFi7 won't be a huge upgrade for you. If you have a older WiFi5 (aka 802.11ac), or something even older than that, then yes WiFi7 can actually be a pretty big upgrade that is worth it you. Personally for me what I wanted was something that was reliable, had good firmware support, didn't have all the issues that the 6Ghz band routers were experiencing, wasn't too expensive, and had 10Gbe ports. This router fits that bill perfectly! ASUS usually makes a solid router, this one is going to have 4yr firmware support, and the SFP port is upgradable to whatever 10Gbe solution that you could want. Having 4x 2.5Gbe ports on top of 4x 1Gbe ports built in is pretty nice too. Lots of home networks can probably get away with not using a separate switch at all with this thing. I had to reboot a few times to get the router working well with my cable modem but other than that a wired set up (they push the cellphone app hard in the directions, its not needed) went fine. I will say that for some reason the login page didn't want to load in Firefox so I had to use MS's Edge. Not a big deal but seemed odd to me that was necessary. For USB3 performance I tested this with a Corsair Survivor Stealth USB3 flash drive that can easily write or read at 200MB/s+ on my PC. I got around 120MB/s write and 170MB/s read speed off of it when plugged into this router. Not bad but a tad slow for a new 2024 router I'd say. I can get around 1.7Gbps wireless performance moving files around on my phone (which supports WiFi 6 but not 6E) when connected to this thing if I stand within 10'. At the other end of the house, which I estimate to be ~30' away, I get around 1.5Gbps. More than fast enough for me! Signal coverage is great. The whole house (2100sq ft) and the yard (about .3 acre) is in range and gets good reception. The real star of the show to me was the 10Gig performance though! I'm getting around 8.6Gpbs through my wired connection (Cat6a) which is a incredible upgrade from 1Gb!! Moving around a 100GB file only took a bit more than 8 minutes!!! I took a star off since I think the price is still a tad high, USB3 performance is a bit ho hum, there is no USB3 port on the front of the router, and while I don't plan on using it this router does lack 6Ghz band. Otherwise this is a very slick upgrade for anyone looking to get 10Gbe (finally!) while also updating their wireless standard to the latest and greatest. ... show more

  • Replaced a TP-Link AXE5400
Style: WiFi 6E | AXE7800
I had a TP-Link Archer C9 for 7 years that worked flawlessly and came with me over many apartment moves and even moves to different states. However since it was old and didn't support newer wireless protocols like WiFi 6E and didn't have many of the other quality of life features that phones have these days, I decided to replace the Archer C9 with another TP-Link since it had served me so well. I got the TP-Link AXE5400 and at first I loved it. It was way faster, had more features, and worked flawlessly... until one day it didn't after a matter of weeks. One day I woke up and instead of getting the normal 700+ Mbps we get (we have gigabit fiber) I was getting < 0.5 Mbps and couldn't load anything. I tried separating the SSIDs and directly connecting to different bands, tried factory resets, etc. and nothing worked. Interestingly my WiFi 6E devices like my macbook and ipad were still getting full speed but all 5ghz devices were crawling at a snails pace. Eventually I gave up and threw it back in its box and decided to give a different manufacturer a shot. In comes the Asus RT-AXE7800. It has all the features the new TP-Link had but notably it (so far) has worked. If that changes down the road, I'll update the review, but as of now it's been running smoothly for a month and my only complaint is that the app has quite a dated aesthetic but that is a minor enough grievance since I don't really need to open the app that often. ... show more
