This thing is a beast! With my last router, I could not get the speeds I paid for. This has allowed me to surpass what I pay for and I LOVE this thing.

Incredibly fast, the network segmentation is also very nice with all of the IoT devices that are in homes today.

Next Level Router for Serious Speed & Gaming

I upgraded to the ASUS ROG Rapture GT-BE98 Pro after years of using the Netgear X10. The X10 was a great router in its time, and honestly, I was happy with it for a long while. But lately, I started to notice that it just wasn’t keeping up. I pay for 1 Gig internet, and with the X10, I was lucky to see around 700 Mbps, even though I have a Netgear CM2000 modem that’s supposed to handle up to 2.5 Gig. Something clearly wasn’t working right, and it became obvious that the bottleneck was the router.
Since switching to the GT-BE98 Pro, everything has been on a different level. My speeds are way higher and much more consistent across all my devices. Gaming connectivity has improved noticeably too, matches feel smoother and more responsive, and I’m not seeing random ping spikes like I used to.
The ASUS app is another huge plus. It makes setting up and managing the network super easy, but it still gives you real control over everything if you want to dig deeper. I actually feel like I’m managing my network now instead of just hoping for the best.
The 6 GHz range is a little shorter than the other bands, but honestly, it’s already giving me speeds higher than what I’m even paying for, so it’s absolutely worth it. This router completely crushed my expectations. If you want serious performance and total control over your WiFi, this is the one to get.

Replaced my AXE16000 with this router so I can get full bandwidth with Google Fibre. Excellent buy. The 10Gb WAN Ethernet port works correctly unlike the AXE16000. I'm using this with the AXE16000 as a mesh access point. Super fast with my Internet. I'm getting sub 10 ms latency to game servers.

If you’re looking to future-proof your network, the ASUS ROG Rapture GT-BE98 Pro is the way to go. I upgraded from a Wi-Fi 6 router and the difference is night and day. This Wi-Fi 7 beast delivers blazing fast speeds, smooth gaming, and excellent coverage throughout my entire home.

This router pushes amazing signal quality over long distances, regardless of which of the three bands you’re using. Unfortunately, it costs so much that my wife said no.

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

abandonded broken features a year after release

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.
