Much needed upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Last modem I had was a Linksys "N" Wireless router. It was good to me but when my internet provider upgraded me to 300mbs and I was only getting 100mbs wireless, something had to change. I went with this router and my speeds are showing over 300 now. Very happy with this Asus Router.

Worked Great for 18 Months
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This router had more range than we needed, even reaching out to my ring cameras throughout the yard. Loved the user interface, and it seemed to increase the speed. Was a great and stable product until the 2.4 signal went out after a year and a half. I expected a little longer life span from this router.

Great Router
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was having connection issues with my last Asus router due to the house being made of concrete and metal studs. This has solved that issue and I am also able to get increased speeds over Wi-fi

Great Router
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Setup was super easy & using the 2.5Gbps port boosted my internet speed about 100Mbps. I looks awesome & because it stands vertically, it takes up less desk space. Asus does it again.

Just Perfect. Speed ++ No more wifi disconnect.
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.AMAZING!!!! I have been using this router for almost a year. Huge upgrade compare to cheap spectrum one. Speed is much faster and I have not had any drop/disconnection to wifi since I switched it. Installation was piece of cake.

Best router for us, zero regret
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After doing research online we decided to purchase this router above many other options. The price was very steep, almost $300, but highly worth it once we got things set up. This thing has a massive range, a very simple setup process, and runs flawlessly on our 1 gig fiber connection. Greatly recommend.

Looks sleek, wifi6, dual wan, gigibite ready
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I chose this router for its gaming focus as well as the possibility of dual wan for a failover internet. I did enjoy the distance as the wifi 6 reached to my 2nd floor from the basement where my consoles are. I have had no issues from this router so far. It was highly rated on multiple top sites and has a small thumbprint

Asus with a great software eco syste,
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I replaced an Apple router with this. First I tried a Nighthawk which was a total disaster. The Asus router is as fast as the Nighthawk on the 2.4 and 5.0 bands. Cannot comment o the 6.0E band. The Asus software eco system is excellent and the mesh function is great. I highly recommend this router.

||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The signal strength on my old router was horrible and always dropped signal, so I picked this up. This router rarely drops signal and the signal strength is amazing. I'm able to get full bars through my entire house.

Awesome routers
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased two of these babies on June 1st and could not be happier. I have not had any issues with them whatsoever. The speed on these routers are amazing. I get 220-245 mbps constantly from spectrum. I pay for 200 mbps but get more speed with these routers. I highly recommend these. Two thumbs up.

Excellent WiFi
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Kids and wife hated the Google mesh. The speed never met the specs they listed. Replaced it for this system. This has been awesome! 2000 SF two story home with some dead spots on old router before mesh system. This covers everything and backyard with much better speeds. Great buy.
