Really easy to set up. Wifi 6 appears to have boosted my speed by about 60 mps as my max speed was about 160 prior, then after this router I could get 210ish. A lot cheaper than other options. So all good!

I initially purchased this due to my internet provider router not reaching my upstairs rooms well. This did provide a stronger signal and I would recommend for a house up to 1800 sq ft.

Looking so far. Much better than nighthawk. Simple setup and gui. Very easy to setup even the more complicated features. Fast and it doesn't factory reset daily which is a major plus. No complaints so far.

Very fast, and super simple to set up as your primary router or add as part of a mesh network. Also, cool lighting that clearly let's you know whether you are connected or not. Priced right, too!

This thing was a huge upgrade over the standard issue router from my internet provider. It was pretty much plug and play. The ASUS software is also very helpful, I was able to set 5G for me and the wifi TVs in three rooms and the BLINK cameras. Then I set up a guest wifi in 2.4 G with a different password so the daughter and all her friends had wifi when they came over. The new router also enabled me to add two more home security cameras on the north side of the house. I was only able to use two and they had to be close to the router to work.

Easy setup, works out of the box, and app is great. Like the app functions complements the routers abilities. Not really into the RGB thing but it looks nice and you can change it with the app.

Needed upgrade for Family

I went to go visit family on my move to Florida. While staying there I noticed how slow there internet was. I wondered why and after I noticed that they were using the cable company router with single Smart SSID. I know from past experience that it is always best to use a third party router. I have use a AX-11000 ROG. But they did not need something that powerful so I looked for the next best thing to complement there needs so I went with this Router. I noticed a big different in performance through out the house. with no one having issues with multiple devices active on the network.

This router seems like it's got pretty good bang for the buck. Generally speaking I don't recommend cheaping out on routers because they are usually artificially limited. This particular router seems to hit a sweet spot for features and performance to price. It's fast and supports a good number of gaming specific features.
It's not perfect. I am only really using this router away from home so that I can use my Oculus Quest 2 wirelessly with my laptop. I have seen a few hiccups here and there with the video feed, but it's generally stable. With a few tweaks to the router settings, that issue will likely be eliminated.
Overall, this is a good router that will handle most people's needs without any issues. While I wouldn't necessarily recommend it for people with a plethora of devices (my normal home setup consists of no fewer than 10 wired devices and something like 40 wireless devices), I do believe this router will be perfect for most.

Excellent Wireless Router

Bought this to replace a 5 year old netgear AC1900 Wireless Router to take advantage of my new COX Gigablast service. First of all, the Support from Asus is by far better than Netgear. I called several times with setup questions and never had to wait on hold for an available Support Technician. The web interface is intuitive and I can store all my music on a USB drive so I can listen to it from multiple computers and even my Home Entertainment system. I get excellent signal strength throughout the entire house without the need for a WiFi Repeater.

1 month and one day after I installed this in my home it stopped working. It was wonderful until then. Hooked up my 5 year old Asus router and got back online. Tried all the troubleshooting and resets, and nothing. 2 hours spent on phone/chats with both Asus and Best Buy..both finger pointing each other and no help. 2 year warranty means nothing. Your time means nothing. I would stay away from both Asus and Best Buy.
