Keeping things easy
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Asus RT-AX82U is a great choice for users looking for a router with advanced features. It offers the latest Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) technology, which provides faster speeds and increased capacity compared to previous Wi-Fi standards. The router's 1.8GHz quad-core processor and ample memory make it capable of handling multiple devices and high-bandwidth activities, such as 4K streaming and online gaming. The router's user-friendly interface allows for easy setup and configuration, and the router also provides robust security features to protect your home network. Additionally, the RT-AX82U includes advanced features such as parental controls, guest network, and MU-MIMO support.

Reliable router option for gaming on wi-fi
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall satisfied with this router's performance as it provides a strong, reliable signal around my home. On wi-fi, multiplayer games on PS5/XSX have kept good and, more importantly, stable ping levels. The Asus config page (and app) provide plenty of custom options and visuals for monitoring usage, etc. The front panel RGB is cool-looking, but doesn't have a variable brightness setting. I eventually disabled it since it was too bright being in my bedroom. The more important lights noting connection status are on the left side.

The Perfect Gaming Router.

Fast
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fast, my new gaming laptop with WiFi 6 would barely top 50mbps on my WiFi 4 Xfinity Modem/Router. Now my laptop reaches up to 350mbps with this router. Easy set up as well

Amazing performance and control
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great router. It took my lackluster Xfinity 2 Gig service and turned it into a well-oiled machine-like experience. Better, more stable speeds and distribution. Stronger, faster WiFi and gaming is just that more enjoyable. Love this router and company.

Best WIFI 6 gaming router ever!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have owned many different WIFI routers prior to this one. I was just amazed! Very easy setup, many customizable settings, and just plain lightening fast! I have Gigabit internet in my home and my mesh system prior to this router just was just to slow. With this router I get a consistent 750MBs+ on my WIFI 6 devices. My other other devices get 550Mbs+ consistently. On the dedicated gaming port on the router I get 950Mbs+ consistently. This router also looks really cool with customizable LED through the app on my phone. The coverage is also excellent throughout my whole home. I highly recommend this router!

So far so good!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a nighthawk before and it kept dropping wifi signal every day. I had to keep resetting it. So I went out and bought this one.... Wow! So far, this is great! It's placed in the center of a 2,000sq ft home and I get full wifi bars everywhere in the home. I don't have the rgb lights on because I don't want to make it work harder than it has too, but they do look pretty awesome. It's fast, it works, easiest set up ever and it helps that it looks cool.

Solid Router for Gaming and Streaming.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A solid router that gives so much coverage around my house. Speeds are far superior compared to the stock Spectrum router I've been running for a year until upgrading to this and this gave me low ping on games and zero buffering on video streaming. The app isn't too bad but has plenty of control for the basic features like rgb, etc. Overall a great value if you're also looking to get the latest WiFi 6 speeds as I can vouch that with those devices compatible, the speeds are simply great.

Great Range
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This device is amazing and capable of hitting 800mbps on wifi. Only con is that the router has to be restarted weekly because the devices will not connect eventhough the signal is available.

Great Router
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Neat looking router, cheaper than a few I saw in store. Customizable RGB is cool, I use it as a guide light when I need to use the restroom and don’t want to turn on my bedroom light and wake myself up, lol. Seamless setup with Spectrum, Asus router app is super easy to use!

Its perfection!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works magnificently. I am far from being a techie but when I called the company's connection number, the gentleman talked me through the connection procedure. And he was very patient with me regarding following his directions.

Works well
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great! It is really fast and like the way it looks. It has a long range signal. Wifi6 has worked fine on my phone. One important thing with WiFi mesh is when you put to 2 WiFi boxes together, the second one will have half the speed of the first one. With PS5 I had below the router and got about 450Mbps download on WiFi6 in speed test. Guess the WiFi in the PS5 is not very fast. Hooked it up to wired and went 1Gbps download in speed test. Xbox Series X it doesn't support WiFi6.

Great Router!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very easy installation. Excellent access and control via ASUS app on either Android or iOS. Easiest router setup I've yet done. The speed and stability of the 2.4 and 5 GHz antennas seem to be a notable upgrade. My Lenovo Carbon X1 and Galaxy S9 will connect wirelessly to the router at 1733 Mbps -- about twice as fast as my prior router. I have 20 devices on the router between the 2.4 and 5GHz bands, including 2 game systems. This router is handling everything without any lag. Even my printer, connected by cable to the router, wakes and responds faster! The remote access to the router is a gift. Being able to reset the router or regulate internet access, etc. when out of the house is a major plus for parents, just sayin'. It is easier, in my opinion, to set up parental controls via the Android or iOS app rather than on the router interface via laptop. The laptop interface is excellent, in my opinion, but for the casual homeowner the number of choices and settings is overwhelming -- and can be messed up. This router interface does somewhat expect that you, the user, know what you are doing if you are changing settings. It won't ask many questions and will let you change pretty much whatever you want. I would consider myself intermediate to expert on computers and routers . . . but I am certain the average user will be most comfortable using the APP instead of the computer GUI because the full router controls are wideranging and a little complex. But if you want it -- especially for the advanced user -- you will have CONTROL of EVERYTHING you want to control. My prior router was an ASUS AC3100, but it died after 21 months, so this was a replacement/upgrade. My only reason for not giving highest marks for Quality and Value are the fact that my prior ASUS router did not last even 2 years -- but I did get a Geek Squad plan on it so it was replaced by Best Buy essentially free of charge to me. Thanks, Best Buy! So, I will have to wait to see if this router lasts longer, but so far no complaints regarding ease of use, speed and functionality. Definitely a superior router to the ASUS AC3100. And, yes, I did get the Geek Squad protection again . . . it has paid off for me a couple of times (which does NOT speak well of the quality of some of the electronics on the market currently). Not Best Buy's fault, but some of the electronics nowadays are just not much for durability. Sad. A final trivial note: my wife and kids love the "glowing eyes" effects on the front of the router. Looks really cool in the dark! Kinda works for a Halloween decoration, actually.

Great coverage
