Great Speeds! Great for 1GB plans
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have xfinity 1gb plan but would only get as high as 600mbps with their factory modem/router wifi 6 xb7, i bought this along with Netgear nighthawk cm1200 modem and my speeds have never been lower than 1gbps, its a gaming router so it also enhanced my gaming experience dropped my ping to 22 when I was getting 45-55 with xfinity modem/router (tested in blackout)...also the app for this router is very cool, its tricky setting it up at first not going to lie but once you get its easy to use

Replacement for so-so router
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed to replace a router that had a failing WAN port. This replacement was for a Linksys router. The router was only 3 years old when the WAN port started to fail. Also, I didn't like that the Linksys router had to be set up with an app. There was not the ability to use a browser until it was initially set up. Even then, the controls were limited. This router has much control and hopefully the quality will be excellent and the features will carry me 5 years into the future.

Much better
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Our old router was an "N" router which was a few years old and seemed to be constantly dropping the internet or the devices connected to it were not getting a consistent signal. We replaced it with this unit and while it cost more than I really wanted to spend it was worth it. We have yet to have the unit drop our internet connection and all devices hooking up to this unit have worked so much better and faster than what we were experiencing before. I would definitely purchase this again.

It gets hot under the collar
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have it supporting 40+ devices connected to a 1Gbps network and 1Gbps WAN connection. It gets hot, sometimes hot enough to overheat and degrade performance. Occasionally it locks up requiring a reboot. The GUI is very configurable and setup for most users is easy as pie. The USB3 port doesn't work anymore but I understand that is an ASUS problem. Enabling all the features within the unit means you can't hit 1Gbps speeds under load. Disabling all the features, got me as close as I was going to get about 987Mbps.

Very Good Router
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works great. It has many options and great speed for a gaming family like mine, especially since we have gaming servers. My only complaint, and the reason for one less star, is that the routing tables take a short while to route accordingly. I set up port forwarding to one of my game servers, but was not even able to even ping it until about 30 minutes later. Now that it has been running for some time I don't have any problems with it.

Perfect - Fills my home with Wi-Fi
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my second ASUS Dual Band W-Fi Router and both are rocking my home with Wi-Fi!! The older model has been working flawlessly for over four years and so far the this upgraded AC3100 is meeting my needs. We are not power users - one TV, two computers, a pair of cell phones and an occasional tablet, but the signal is strong and flawless. If I buy a third home and need another router, it will be an ASUS. (p.s. -- and, it looks impressive, like a little piece of Sci-Fi on my shelf!!)

Best Router for the money!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is by far the best router for the money! Unless you need more than 4 ethernet ports there is nothing this router cannot do. It is also a dream for gamers with it's multiple options for giving gaming packets priority and faster down/upload speeds. I have this in my mother's house where I need a fast connection and liked it so much I also purchased one to replace my home router. Also the coverage area is very good without an extender or mesh system in a 2000sq ft single family home.

A little pricey, but...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You're paying a premium for the fast speeds and widest coverage. Easy to set up and can handle multiple devices accessing it at the same time. Highly recommend it.

Great speed and coverage
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this to replace an aging RT-AC87U and I have been very satisfied. I first tried an RT-AX58U (AX3000) router and was disappointed at the download speeds. This router is consistently 2x faster than the RT-AX58U. Download performance is on par with the RT-AC87U it is replacing, and the coverage is a bit better. This router has a LOT of power-user features not found on lesser routers, plus it has the ability to upgrade to a mesh setup in the future with AIMesh.

Great Range
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to replace an ASUS ac1900. The old router was also great, but I noticed some weak/dead spots in the house. This new router has better range and has eliminated those weak spots. It is about twice as big(physically), though, so keep that in mind if that's a concern. I've always liked the ASUS router software as well. I use it to set time limits on individual devices (think kids' devices), set maximum download speeds for individual devices, and to monitor what devices/apps are using the most internet traffic each month. Overall a great product/software combination.
