I have been testing different 802.11ax routers after experiencing issues with my TP-Link AX3000. I tried the TP-Link AX73, TP-Link AX11000, Netgear RAX120 and now this Asus RT-AX89X. I can honestly say this is hands down the best reliable router that I have used and tested. It has excellent coverage on both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands. I have a WyzeCam mounted outside my front door, a smart oven in the kitchen and an old HP Pro 8630 printer in the living room. My main computer is in my bedroom and there are 4 walls in between it and the router. I also have 2 computers in the living room and there are in direct line of sight of the router which I placed in the center of the house in the living room. While there is a 160MHz option on all the above routers, I have not had much success with getting stable and reliable 2.4Gbps connections but at least with this router, while the connection speed still bounces between 1.2Gbps - 2.4Gbps, the signal strength is amazing and incredibly stable even in my bedroom. It has 2 10Gbps ports, 1 SFP+ and 1 RJ45. I purchased the TP-Link TX401 to use in conjunction with this router and can confirm really fast transfer speeds. Of course your mileage may vary depending on what devices you have connected and the transfer rates of said devices. These were the issues I experienced on all the routers (even after updating to latest firmware and testing consistency and stability with my laptop that has an Intel AX200 wireless card): TP-Link AX3000 - signal strength to my bedroom, stability throughout the house, link aggregation to my NAS TP-Link AX73 - extremely unstable (getting only 54Mbps 3ft away on my laptop) TP-Link AX11000 - inconsistent connection speeds throughout the house, VPN compatibility (getting only 20Mbps upload speeds on my Verizon FIOS 300/300 plan) Netgear RAX120 - signal strength to my bedroom (perhaps due to design of the antennas) This router is not inexpensive by any means but if you want a router that is extremely fast, stable, consistent, has 10Gbps port options and without issues using link aggregation and VPN services, I would definitely recommend this router. Asus is a very well known and reputable brand and they do firmware updates on their products to constantly improve them. ... show more

  • Fast, quad core with 1g ram makes a difference! AND PARENTAL CONTROLS WORK WELL.
LOVE THIS ROUTER This review is for the ASUS RT AX89X router (AX6000) Caution when you read the reviews: if the review is about the AX11000, it's referring to the ASUS GT-AX11000 router, not the AX89X It works well ...but how you set it up is critical. I bought this router for the fast speed and the large ram; I don't have any wifi 6 devices yet. I have an unusually long house with 4000 square feet, 3 stories, including a detached cottage which we run as an Airbnb. We have a Synology NAS, 3 desktops, 6 laptops (including 2Macbooks) 3 I-phones, 3 kindles, 2 TV's we use for streaming and that's not counting guest usage in our cottage. Xfinity says we use 900 MB- 1.1 TB of data per month. The new AX89X lives in a small closet with the Synology NAS, switches, and audio distribution amplifiers. Heat would be problematic but I bought a tiny 4-inch fan to ventilate the closet. My system has 6 routers: The AX89X, 2 RT-AC88Us, 3 Blue caves, 5 of the ASUS routers are linked via Aimesh at our main house and the one remaining is connected as a "downstream" router for guests in our detached cottage. All the routers are connected via ethernet cabling. (So far Aimesh only supports guest wifi at the main router, so one router not on mesh) I formerly had at RT-AC88u as the main router, but my system had unexplained tiny lags. I tried getting a faster internet contract: Xfinity @1GB/sec then replaced my DOCSIS 3.0 modem with a Motorola MB 8600. Better, but still some lags. I wondered whether the dual-core, 256k RAM router was overwhelmed by my system. I thought the fast 2.2 GHz quad-core processor with 1Gb of RAM would work better. Like magic, the RT-AX89X has solved this problem of lag! On ethernet, I get about 950 MB/sec downloads and on wireless near the nodes up to 550 mb/sec. As I read so many people's difficulties I decided to set up the router before connecting it to my system. I downloaded the latest firmware: release date 7/9/20 (and updated again on 3/4/2021). Then I turned the router on connecting it ONLY to my laptop and installed the firmware. Then I tried to"restore" settings saved in a file from my RT-AC88u, but the AX89X wouldn't accept it.. (I was surprised because most ASUS routers can accept other ASUS router settings.) I connected a second laptop to the GUI of the RT-AC88u and manually copied the settings in common. Much to my surprise, all the ASUS routers I had been using had to be FACTORY RESET before the initial connection to the AX89X as an Aimesh node. For my BlueCave and 88u routers, I had to search online for the second method to factory reset as their reset buttons didn't seem to operate as expected. (power off, hold the WPS button for 30 sec while powering back on, wait until the light blinks before letting go.) There are some interesting differences in the setup choices with this unit. I turned WPS off as I don't use it. The ASUS feature "smart connect" allows the simultaneous broadcast of both 5Ghz and 2.4Ghz with a single SSID. If this feature is turned on, channel bandwidth, control channel, and extension channel cannot be changed from Auto. This doesn't seem to matter. As with other ASUS routers, there is minimal help on "Wireless-Professional settings" in the manual. But you definitely need to look at the settings because it can make a huge difference. You can search online for suggested tweaks. There is an amazing amount of customization that you can do. I believe that it is the necessity for tweaking that is the source of many people's difficulties with this router. Just a small setting change will make a difference in some device's ability to connect with the router. My daughter has a Macbook--one of the latest models--which would disconnect if 2.4 GHz roaming assist was turned on. It connects at the full 1GB speed. There are 2 choices in Mu-MIMO; I picked the one that was more inclusive. You will need to try out different setting combinations to find the best for you and your devices. Some authors suggest setting the preamble to "short" and to disable Tx bursting. This did not work well for my Thinkpad X1 Carbon. After making a change in wifi settings, I found it helps to reboot all the connected aimesh nodes. I'm guessing that the March 2021 firmware is much better than the older versions, and look forward to versions to come. It now supports WPA3. I discovered a switch in my network that had gone bad--so I decided to replace it with the latest QNAP (QSWM408-2C) and connected it to the AX89X with the 10G SPF+ connector which works great! (but my internet provider only offers 1G) One complaint: I have many devices listed in the "manually assigned IP around the DHCP" list. This allows you to nickname each device so you can easily see it in the list of connected devices as well as give a consistent address to known devices. After entering everything in and pressing "apply" you would think the router would remember your entries. While the DHCP reservations and IP address persist, some of the names change to "New device" on reboot. HIDDEN BENEFIT FOR PARENTS: The parental controls work REALLY WELL on this router. I can set time limits on all my daughter's devices. When I did this on my previous router, a (dual-core) Asus RT-AC88U it would somehow slow the internet to a crawl on the affected devices. This doesn't happen with the new router: the Quad-core makes all the difference! All in all, I am HAPPY with this router. So far (5.5 months) so good... ... show more

  • Worth every penny for the features/hardware/support.
Since my first WRT-54G with DDWRT that I pre-ordered and is still in service at my parents, I've gone though many routers from Linksys and one from ASUS prior to this. Once Cisco bought Linksys, every Linksys product has fallen short due to hardware short cummings. In between Linksys routers I purchased an basic ASUS router, and it worked well, I liked the interface as much as DDWRT, it was fast, had many of the same features, VPN/SSH/etc. I upgraded to a Linksys (~$275) with a stronger signal/better bandwidth/newer 802.11 specs. After Linksys dropped support/firmware updates and never delivered the features they promised in only 1.5 years since arrival, and with no fault to DDWRT, hardware was not stable with either firmware I ditched it sadly as it was a great router on paper. I then started searching for a 10GB interface router to connect to my server. Then this was announced, and the waiting game started for months until I could get one to purchase. This met the check boxes, SFP, 10GB, Bridged/Bonded connections, bandwidth, speed, FIRMWARE Features for days. Downside, no Merlin support due to chipset used, but the ASUS Firmware is no slouch so it was not that big of a deal. Purchased 8 months ago, I still cant speak any ill of it. RT Traffic Analyzer by IP/Protocol/APP, VPN, SSH, Scheduled reboots, AIMesh, Game Device Prioritizing, Alexa & IFTTT, Firewall (network,url,keyword, etc), works great with Pi-hole, built in DDNS, and a ton more. Works flawless connecting to my HP DL360-G6 over 10GB SFP with bandwidth to spare for streaming Plex and more. Firmware updates have been coming about every 1-3 months. This has been one of my best hardware purchases ever. ... show more
