    Had a Netgear AC1750 and it was the worst piece of garbage that was slightly better than what I replaced for use for work from home. Finally gave in a bought this ASUS router and everything is night in day. Stability, design, app, speed…. All better. Do I love this router so much or am I just comparing to my hate of the dumpster fire that is Netgear.

    Awesome coverage. Downside: You can't stop the blue light from pulsing. This is in one of our bedrooms, so we have put it on a timer. Now it shuts off at 11PM, back on at 7AM. Which is also a safety thing, no one can break in to our WiFi pc's while we are sleeping. B

    Truly a wonderful and easy to set up WIFI router!

    I got this router after returning a new Netgear router that refused to sustain a WIFI broadcast for more than 30 minuets before completely crashing. The setup on this router was shockingly easy to do. I told the family that the WI FI was going down for at least a few hours to set the new router up. This wonderful little spaceship looking router was up and running in 15 minutes. My son has already commented on the much faster downloads speeds on his XBOX and he is on the other side of our house from where the router is located. The streaming for our 4K smart TV is very stable and and everything loads up much faster now. The biggest surprise is the ease of using the features like monitoring how much data each device is using. Setting up the web filtering for my children is very simple with the GUI interface that ASUS put on this router. All in all so far I am very happy with this new router, it easily beats out other brand routers that cost two or three times as much. Thank you ASUS for putting out this awesome winner.

    I previously had an Asus gaming router that unfortunately Asus no longer supported with firmware updates and was not performing well. i really like the speed/ performance and upgraded security of the Asus RT- 82U. Hopefully Asus will extend the support, such as secure firmware updates and security services updates.

    Bought this after our Netgear router bricked itself in the middle of a firmware update. Spent some time doing some research and this checked all boxes with out breaking the bank. Wifi 6 dual band. we do a lot of streaming and gaming and there is not lag ever from this anywhere in our house. Easier to set up and maintain than any other router i have ever had.

    Great router

    This is an excellent router, and I would recommend it to anyone looking based on my experience with it. I'll start out with the couple minor issues I've seen. It doesn't support wall mounting as is, however I was able to find a 3d printed bracket to mount it. The overall range is decent, but not great. The range issue leads into one of the best features about this router: It is a full featured router with both wi-fi and ethernet connectivity, and it supports a mesh network out of the box. I picked up a single mesh extender, and that fixed my range issue with about 5 minutes of setup. Another great feature is this can replace the "required" router from many ISPs without much trouble. I use CenturyLink fiber, and the setup page has an option to turn on PPPoE and set that to CenturyLink, and it automatically set the settings, aside from username and password. Other than that, I've found this router to have great performance. Wi-fi performance is almost indistinguishable from gigabit ethernet. I have a lot of devices connected with no issues. There is an app that can be used instead of the web interface, and that works well for most things.

    I purchased this about a month ago and was dreading the install but it was fairly painless and I was able to reuse my SSID and password so that all devices continued to work without problems. the router is fast and reliable--I have had no problems so far.
