Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have a 2600 sqft home and game often while streaming. This router covers all my devices with no lag. Its very fast and the selection of bandwidths is nice when selecting speeds for various devices. It runs a little warm but so far thats the only thing slightly negative i can say.

This thing is an absolute beast! I replaced my old ASUS router that had gone end of life with this one and saw my network speeds skyrocket. It's rock solid, stable, and future-proof with Wifi 7. Initial setup was easy, but it is also packed full of advanced options and features (security, VLANs, VPN, traffic analytics, and mesh networking) for those who know what they're doing and want more control over their networks. For example, I was able to set this up as the core router of a mesh network with two ASUS ROG GT6s to ensure blazing fast connectivity through all 3 floors of my home.

pros: pretty solid range, good speed, decent features in the default firmware cons: default firmware only supports a list of ddns services and does not allow you to set your own domain

This is a decent Wifi 7 router. Note that while it claims to support creating VLANs, the VLAN support doesn't work if you put a switch downstream of it. It doesn't support marking its ports as tagged/untagged/excluded, and no matter what I tried it was always creating a network loop. I put a dedicated router in, connected the VLAN switches to that, set this device to AP mode instead, and had no trouble getting that setup working. As long as you aren't doing anything involving VLANs, this device works quite well.

Update from a Linksys EA 9500 to achieve 2.5G speeds. I have not been disappointed. This ASUS BE98 Pro is a beast. Robust safety and speeds. Easy upgrade. Now using ASUS to build out the rest of my high speed network.

Super easy setup. Tri band with individual band setup. This has great coverage and great speeds

Upon visiting a Best Buy store I was immediately greeted by a very knowledgeable sales associate. While I had researched this router extensively, the associate added to my research solidifying the decision to purchase. The router exceeded expectations in ease of setup, range, speed and options available to customize my network. The phone app is an added bonus. I would recommend this router.

Great router. Very fast speeds and good range. Setup is easy with the app, with more advanced options for ones that know how to use them. Vpn is also easy to setup for all devices connected or you can choose which devices will be connected at all times.

I replaced my ASUS AXE11000 with the BE98U as my main router and saw an immediate improvement in signal quality - especially in the length of travel of the 6 GHz band I have become so dependant on. ASUS had ruined my version 1 ET8 Mesh nodes with firmware updates. I had used with the AXE11000 for 6 GHz client connections. I now use the BE98U with the AXE11000 as a Mesh node and have fair 6 GHz coverage. I am upgrading the AXE11000 with the BE96U this week and expect to have even better 6 GHz coverage in my home and expect the BE96U Meshed with the BE98U will further improve all signals with the much improved interference rejection of WiFi signals in my neighborhood the BE98U has already provided. WIFi 7 and the multiple lanes provided using top end BE ASUS routers is unbeatable. If I find I still need more 6 GHz signat one point in my home, I will just keep the AXE11000 as Mesh node there. In any case, the performance will still be far above what I had using four ET8s as Mesh nodes with my AXE11000 as the main router in my previous setup - before ASUS ruined the 6 GHz broadcasting on ET8 Mesh nodes with firmware updates. I won't be using any more ASUS ZEN products.

Doubled the speed of my Iot devices channel, and runs 100+ devices with ease. Simple setup with app. Works with centuryling fiber directly from the ONT.

This is a very amazing product, it has great signal strength and overall great quality for its price.

I'm not a gamer but there are reasons why I chose to invest in the GT-BE98 Pro. I use it as the hub for my ASUS AiMesh network with two RT-BE96U's as satellites. A big plus are the four (4) 2.5GB LAN ports which allows me to connect to the RT-BE96U's 2.5GB WAN ports via Ethernet backhaul and realize the best Wi-Fi coverage possible. Rock solid performance throughout my tri-level home. I have 3GB incoming internet via Google Fiber with Wi-Fi speeds upload and download at 1GB+. At anytime I may have 63 clients which includes 31 Sonos components all on Wi-Fi. If you own Sonos wireless speakers you know they are very chatty and can push a router to its limits. Dual 6Ghz bands allows you to use one as a wireless backhaul leaving 2.4Ghz, 5Ghz and a 6Ghz band available for your clients. I have Apple products that use the 6Ghz bands. Many customization features for those with the requisite knowledge/skills. The price point IMO makes it a non-starter for those with limited networking skills as there are better ASUS Plug n' Play router choices available. If you're a tech geek and want to future proof your purchase then the GT-BE98 Pro should be on your short list.

Easy to setup, lightning speeds, and looks awesome (in my opinion)

This is probably the best router overall I have owned so far. It has everything I want and need as far as features present on a router. It's fast. The WIFI coverage is exceptional. I only have this less than a month but so far not experienced any single problem. The only negative is the price. A little expensive but if you can afford it I would recommend this. I am not a hardcore gamer but the features on this alone is worth it.

I'm very impressed with this! I couldn't believe how much better my network performance increased by switching to this. It's been lightening fast and reliable. I haven't had any problems at all. I replaced the Fidium router with this Asus Router. I gained speed and lost ping time. I get well over 1 Mbs of WiFi 7 speed to my Samsung S25, and my hardwire ethernet connections are also much faster.

Crazy expensive but maybe worth it. Gaming, streaming all work great. I was unsure about 6g, but found out I have a few devices support it. Really cool to easily see every device on every frequency on the router from the phone app. Also was clear that my ISP was having issues after installing this beast.

BOOOOOOOOOY this thing is sweet! I have a wife that works from home plus kids. I can group all their devices and monitor up and down speeds. The app has functions so that you can prioritize which devices you want to have better speed. Made me a little nervous when installing my own VPN but it was just resetting itself. Definitely do a little research and follow the instructions along with the app. Great buy and can't wait to add on more for a mesh wifi system

Best router I have ever owned, lightning fast covers my entire house.

Absolutely in love with this router. The app gives you all the control to fine tune everything. Finally getting the speed I pay for. Running 6 cat6a lan cables, multi channel wifi plus dedicated IoT channel for all my appliances. Handles 18 devices with ease with optimization

this router is a beast and easy to setup great for gaming
