Dear CharlesR,
We certainly understand your disappointment and the inconvenience this may have caused.
All ASUS products undergo intensive quality control testing and inspections, and are built to last, this is a random problem. To resolve the issue, please update the firmware if the router is running with an older version. Also, check that internet service is working properly and stable. If these steps were already performed to no avail, we recommend that you send the product in for service in order to determine if this is a hardware issue so this may be resolved immediately. A RMA number is required to send it in for service. For RMA details, please go to: https://www.asus.com/us/support/article/818/. If you need more information or further assistance with the warranty for the product, please email me at [email protected] and I would be more than happy to help. Or, you are most welcome to call Product Support Hotline at: 1(888) 678-3688. Also, you can chat with an ASUS live support agent from the link: https://www.asus.com/us/support/article/1135/.
Thank you for choosing an ASUS product.
Regards,
Rodel ASUS Customer Loyalty

Really like the UI and the performance of the router. The best thing about it was the low latency. Returned my nighthawk pro gaming router

Customer service agent was a little condescending but made a solid recommendation for our router. Overall happy with the purchase and the product. In store service experience could be a 3/10 though

Poor range

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Poor range. I did a speed test with my old router in several places around my house and one about 3 feet directly in front of it. After hooking up the new one and performing the same speed test I returned the new one. The signal loss was so bad I decided just to keep the old one which is about 5 years old.

Bought one in mid-July 2023, died on me a week later. Sent it to ASUS as an RMA, 3 weeks and they haven't replaced it. Worst router and worst customer service ever. Avoid. Junk.

Your specification of this product states that this is a Modem/router combo. It is just a router. The DSL-AX82U is the modem router combo.

Firmware is filled with BUGS!

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I'm not sure if this is a good router the firmware is filled with bugs and it constantly disconnects. A piece of hardware is only good as the software running it and ASUS fail miserably in the front.
Finding solutions for these bugs will be fruitless because there are dozens of forum posts about these problems but not a single one will work. You'll be troubleshooting this thing for days and soon realize it will never work properly.
ISP blames router.
ASUS blames ISP.

Don't Buy

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I bought this to replace a Linksys router. Big mistake, this device has a limit on how many guest users you can have connected at a time (6) and it was suppose to cover 3000 square ft. It's struggling with 2400 sqr ft. It just sucks and I do not recommend it.
