    This is not a Wifi 6 Router. I am using this for 2 weeks and so far it is serving very well. I will definitely suggest this router.

    Great router. It needs some tweaking out of the box, but there are tutorials out there to help with this.

    Do NOT buy this router!

    I bought this router 2 years ago and it just died on me. The 2.4 GHz network just died completely. Once that happens then the 5GHz network will shortly follow. I’ve done all of the required firmware updates and reset the router plenty of times. I’m now forced to go get another router so that I can work tomorrow.

    Not durable. Died one month out of warranty.

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Came with a 15 month warranty. Had issues on month 14 and ASUS support did a hard reset that got it to limp along for just long enough for the warranty to run out before it died. Checked my purchase history and my previous ASUS router also only lasted 2.5 years. ASUS brand seems to perform well out of the box but the products do not seem durable even a little. Personally will never buy another ASUS product.

      Dear Rmurphy,

      It's unfortunate to hear that the router failed after your warranty ended. Is it unable to turn on? Have you tried to use a different power outlet? I'm happy to look into this matter with you, feel free to reach out to me at [email protected] and provide this link for reference. I'll do my best to provide a quick resolution to your case. Your feedback is important as it helps with improvements to ASUS Support channels.
