Super expensive but super worth it. I have 1GBps internet but my 5 year old router was barely giving my devices 300 mbps over wifi and constantly had disconnect issues. Upgraded to this beefy monster and all my internet issues disappeared and now I'm getting 900mbps down over the 6g band. And easily 6-700 over the 5g band. WORTH THE MONEY

The router seems to work fine. Setup was smooth, internet stability and latency seem really good, with some exceptions: I noticed that QoS does not work correctly. After updating firmware with the same issue and doing some research, it turns out Asus has just decided... not to fix it and hope nobody notices. To this day adaptive QoS, arguably an essential feature, on their most expensive flagship router is unsolved, a year later - and that's almost hilariously negligent by any reasonable measure. It makes me wonder what other features are being outright ignored that may not function correctly and seriously cuts my trust of the company. I am not buying a flagship router that has broken features a year after release, and for all i know will not ever be fixed, or firmware that will stop being updated in 2 or 3 years given the current negligence. I will almost 100% be returning this. Asus routers used to be good - I used them forever, but these days companies cant seem to commit to sustaining anything that works out well, so always research that the TOP performers are before buying, forget brand loyalty.
We're sorry to hear that the QoS feature on the ASUS ROG Rapture GT-BE98 Pro Router is not working, and we apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused you. We understand the impression this may have created and we hope this will not be a long-term lasting impression as you have chosen ASUS as a trusted brand for excellence. We would like to make your experience with us a better one.

Works pretty good after firmware update. WiFi coverage is better than the ax11000 upgraded from.

Great features on the router. Some of the gaming features helped but the QOS you can switch from adaptive to traditional. I found that traditional worked better for me. In the end, I ended up taking it back for the price tag of $700 it wasn't worth it to me. Instead I got a Flint-2 router that's operating just the same if not a little bit better for $125.

This is the possibly the coolest router I have ever worked with, literally. It barely gets warm to the touch at all even under a heavy workload. The firmware is a little flaky, especially with the MLO, but it is definitely a great router despite the ridiculously high price.

This router is the best one I've ever owned. Its advanced technology allows for future-proofing - ensuring it will last for many years to come! The app UI is very easy to use and allowed me to setup a main home network, 5G and 2.4G guest networks, and a 2.4G IoT network. The security capabilities are also top notch!

This is a good gaming router however I do not believe the power level of that great compared to what actually I get from Xfinity gateway router also it tends not to want to switch channels when you apply a new channel and save it probably software issues.

Expensive, but worth it? I got the ASUS ROG BE98 Pro BE30000 to get the most from my internet service. I replaced a Linksys EA9500, which has to be more than 10 years old. I have 2Gig Internet service and was only getting in the 500's download speeds. I was hoping this would have gotten me to the 2Gig level. I did get 1185 megs down only once, but I'm still stuck in the 500's down.
