Best router I've used.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best router I've ever used. I had a mesh system with two nodes that worked ok. This router is way better and I have a ton of devices, including multiple game systems connected.

Good Range, Very poor reliability
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had this router for one week now and the radios will randomly stop working. Sometimes the 2.4 radio will stop working/broadcasting, which most of my things are connected. The 5.8 will just stop working or cut out while playing a game online. I've tried using the default (out the box) settings and also tweaking the settings. Nothing seems to work. When it does work, the range is very good, I had a Google Wifi mesh (3 node) set up in a 3k sqft + garage (100 ft away) and this router seems to have the same amout of range as the G Wifi.

Great Gaming Rounter.
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Such a great gaming router. Had been having issues with some netgear routers and decided to give Asus a try. Has worked so great since then. Looks cool as well if you like that RGB gamer look.

The gaming port and settings have lowered my ping by 20ms using the free apartment internet. I like the customization to prioritize what each device is for

Get it before they run out
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's at least 100 bucks cheaper than any other router with the same features . Port forwarding was so simple . 2.4 and 5 ghz configuration is a cinch . Not to mention all the gaming options this router has .

Manufacturer’s support very frustrating
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Performance good so far. Set up from the ASUS site is pretty average. Options for the unit’s performance and settings choices thorough and useful. Support and troubleshooting from ASUS.com might have been developed by the writers for Laurel and Hardy’s “Who’s on first, what’s on second, I don’t know is on third.” Inconsistent formatting for information fields, endless looping in the chat section, dead ends that do not complete the inquiry’s journey, repeating screens requesting information they don’t need. Time to again watch Bill Murray again on Groundhog Day, again. Thus two stars, again. In store help was great.

Strong enough to keep up with Gig Speed but...
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Can't complain, does what it's supposed to but wish that the signal traveled further through the house. When signal is strong its great when signals weak... Meh not so much.

Amazing router for gaming or anything
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing router! It literally covers my house better than a mesh system. Worth every penny! Setup is not as intuitive as newer mesh systems but that somewhat expected with a “gaming” router.

Does not meet it's criteria on lan speed.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This router makes my modem connection drop from time to time and I am unable to reach my max speed when I hook it up to my router ( I am on xfinity gigabit speed). I used the Lan ports multiple time and it is frustrating to see that a wire connection only reaches 250mb instead of my gigabit speed. It's Lan speed is exactly the speed of my wifi. So what's the point of being wired at that point then. The wifi is awesome though, it really works well and the signal strength from upstairs to the basement I can reach the max speed of wifi still.

Posted .Dear Valued Customer,
It's unfortunate to hear that you are not getting the LAN speed as expected. This is not the kind of experience we want any of our customers to have. Have you tried to change the RJ45 cable? Is it Cat 5 or Cat 5e? I'm happy to assist you, feel free to reach out to me at customerloyalty@asus.com and provide this link for reference.
