Customer Ratings & Reviews

This router is awesome. Paired up with a Docsis 3.1 cable modem it just screams speed. Way faster than my old wireless AC router. Great price point and tons of features without feeling in over your head with options.

Got it as a gift and they loved it! It was a huge upgrade from their previous router so as expected it was better but the plus of having wifi 6 and the amount of range compared to it's competitors made it an easy pick.

No matter who tells you Netgear is better, or that they recommend a Nighthawk gaming wireless router, there are caveats! In my specific situation, I had upgraded to Cox Communications Gigablast Internet, and had to upgrade my modem, which was a given. My wireless router had started to act up, so it was time to replace. My Netgear AX4 wasn't even reaching the back bedroom of my 3 bedroom apartment, which caused us to purchase a range extender for $40, on top of the $199 retail price of the Netgear. This $160 router does everything the Netgear failed to do...and more. You can monitor your network through a mobile phone app, quickly accessing important information about your network status, you login credentials, download and upload speed, and who is using your network. This has been the best brand change so far!

My current wireless router started being unreliable so I replaced with this one. Speeds are great for both wireless and wired. Range is very good thru out my home. Very satisfied.

This router is amazing very fast and more reliable than my old router. I recommend it to anyone looking to upgrade.

Great single router. Good range and speed for a single unit. You can also add another Asus router using their Mesh system. I love the web interface and the iOS app is actually pretty good surprisingly.

I bought this to replace a flakey router (another popular brand) and have been very happy with it. The signal level is plenty strong enough to reach security cameras around the house and yard, and it has been super stable (our previous router would periodically drop all connections and reboot... large, high-speed downloads would often trigger this). Setup went smoothly and it was able to configure itself for our cable modem after the usual power-cycle. The configuration screens were easy to navigate to setup the various networks providing names/passwords etc. While it has a lot of features and is very configurable, the menus and screens are well layed out and easy to navigate making the basics easy to find.

[Employee of bestbuy] I got this router to manage port forwarding and VPN settings more efficiently over my ISP's modem. It having a much better WiFi band output vs my ISP hybrid is a nice plus too, as my smart lights all have stronger connections. Initial setup takes a while to actually start getting your outside connection, but after that I have had no issues with this router. Has a great admin panel, decent warranty, and pretty fast wifi. A good mid range model that will fit all of your needs.

Crazy improvement to internet speeds in our home with this router. Only problem we've been having is that it frequently drops connection with the chromecasts we have in our home. We think ots because they are older, but other than that thoroughly enjoying this product.

It’s only been about a week but so far so good. seems very fast. I love all the extra features especially how you can label each device. the tether app is fantastic. I would highly recommend

I needed to replace my router because I work remotely and would lose my Cisco sessions several time a day. I had been using the old router for two years and this was the only issue. Somedays it would get so bad I would bypass the router and directly connect to my cable modem. FYI: I use a LAN to connect my laptop to the router. I chose this router based on the reviews and because it has 802.11ax and MU-MIMO I still lose sessions, but it's only a couple per month as opposed to several times a day on bad days. We're not heavy WIFI users, only our phones, an iPad and a laptop No problems getting them set up or connecting to the internet. Entertainment system uses the LAN to connect to the router and no issues with streaming movies or music.

We upgraded from a cut-rate mesh system from Amazon and it's been a revelation. We recently upgraded our speeds from 250 Mbps to 500 Mbps and were seeing pretty much none of the increase in actual usage. The mesh system didn't seem to be able to push the signal far enough or fast enough. This made a huge difference. Using Wifi 6 devices (a HP Spectre x360 and another laptop with an upgrade AX200 chip), speeds ranged from 300-400Mbps three rooms away. There are about as many walls in between and the distance is a good 30 feet. On Wifi 5 cellphones, like our Pixels, we saw low 300's in the same area as the above devices. An older desktop with an embedded motherboard wifi 5 chip is pushing 100 on a good day. We'll call that a victory honestly.

This is so much better than the router supplied by spectrum. The signal is stronger and both the 2.5 and 5.0 gig networks are visible.

My last router failed. Bought this one based on performance/price balance. Easy to setup and get my network back operational - which is important because my wife and I both work from home offices. Performance has been stellar.

Great speed and range. The companion app is great.

This is a great router to add to existing AI Mesh. In small homes it’s good by itself. I use it in addition as a NODE and really boosts my signal. Super easy to use and can change settings from your phone!

I have been using this router for a week now with no issues. I originally purchased the Netgear Nighthawk MK62 mesh router set, but began having issues after a few weeks of use. The satellite appeared to be causing an issue with several of my devices connecting to the internet. I only had the satellite placed 25 feet from the router though, so perhaps it was a proximity issue. I'm really not sure what the cause was, but with this Asus router able to cover my entire house with consistent speeds, it's apparent that a mesh system is not necessary. I have a 200 Mb/s cable internet connection, and I consistently achieved around 250 Mb/s throughout my house. User interface is on par with what I have seen from most routers, and size/appearance are the same.

Absolutely phenomenal product. I had upgraded my router to this device and love the customizations you can do in-app, rather than having to visit the ip in a browser. Not only the features, but the wireless speeds and distance are great as well.

Great range, the app is easy to understand and use. Installation was very straight forward. I did have to call my internet company so they could authorize the router but other that it was super simple.

I was a little unsure if this would offer the range of coverage needed for our home, but it has proved as good as it said it would be. Easy to set up and certainly has the strength and range to do all we ever need.
