    Awesome performance, with signal reaching easily to all of the 2500 Sq Ft of our 3 level house. The user-friendly ASUS router management interface is very appreciated for its ease of use. Not much else to say, other than if you want a decently priced router, with many features that are extremely easy to use/configure, this is the right choice.

    Bought this to replace an older linksys which stopped working out of nowhere. I love that this one has the option to make a 2g or a 5G network, as we have some electronics that are older and can olny function off of a 2G. Great range and fast speeds. We live in a rambler of about 3200 sq. Feet and the device is on one end of the house due to wiring but works great, inside and outside.

    This router has been truly amazing, I bought this router because the one provided by my ISP was constantly disconnecting and dropping connectivity. I have had zero issues since. My speeds and reliability have been so much better. I’m also very pleased with the customization that is offered with this router. Many features offered, most won’t use but it has been fun to tinker around with settings and other features. Recently ASUS encountered some issues with security on a few routers, this router was not on that list so that was another bonus!

    From A to Z Best Buy was GREAT. An associate came to my aid immediately and after explaining my computer and streaming connection frustrations, he introduced me to 4 frustration solving routers. One was a high end model, but he had listened to my price range and the next three were in it. He explained each one, then I chose the ASUS-RT-AX82U AX5400 Dual-Band WiFi 6 Router. This ASUS-RT-AX82U router has cured my connection frustration. It was at a good price, from what I remember, easy to set up, and with 2 computers and a streaming device it hasn’t lost or buffered the signal at all. In the looks department it’s pretty cool. On the front it has two long triangles on each side of the face. They light up to several different colors every second and look similar to the Destroyer robot in

    Had many routers over the years. Had Apple Extreme for the last TEN years and never rebooted it. It was that good. But times change and so does technology. After going through many latest routers from TP link and those satellite things none of them were as robust and consistent as this ASUS. The configuration is vast, and you could have your own personal cloud storage and what not. Not going to bore you with minute details you can look it up at their website. Overall, a great router with reliable performance and range and of course you could extend this with the Mesh Technology with their Ai Mesh devices too. So yes, you could extend this with Mesh technology. I got an Ai Mesh device, and it is working great in another room. But setting that up is a pain!

    A very good Router with very long range. Its range goes outside of my house across the street. This is running wifi 6 and lower. Wifi 6 can go up to 10gb. Never a problem and it will typically run well for 4 years.. im running at 500 Mbs and testing its signal gives me 500..

    I have been looking for a router that toes the line between offering a lot of features and one that takes minimal setup. I'm using the built in VPN, self hosted cloud storage , and mesh network. This router is great because it's fast, has great range, and was cake to set all up!

    I’ve been using this router for right about a year now and I have had no issues with it. It has good range and is very fast. I ended up adding two asus mesh routers as well to extend the range to my wife’s office which is about 30 yards from our house and everything works very well. I would definitely recommend.

    Instantly I noticed a difference in my phones speed, and as i went down the list of other devices they all were noticeably more reactive. I have Xfinity and used their modem/wifi combo deal. For all its worth it did the job but now i feel more like i know what my service is capable of due to this router. I’ve always loved ASUS and their products. This is one to have. My partner works from home and never has any issues and even they noticed a difference in connection quality and speed. We sometimes will have 2 tvs streaming and or gaming with cell phones on the wifi simultaneously and have no issue. Beforehand the initial Xfinity modem couldn’t handle that and the range is not powerful enough to cover 2000 sqft id say. This ASUS router allows us to go at least 30-40 feet away from our home and still see no issue. I recommend this as a great way to up your wifi game. Tons of settings and a comprehensive app that does it all for you. Even the initial setup. Super easy!

    Great Router with a lot of advanced features

    This Router has been great, my internet with spectrum has been 10x better since switching from a rented router to this one. Some of my favorite features are the range of this router, the ability to upload my VPN credentials directly to the router protecting all devices on my network or only selecting the ones that I use for work, the AI mesh allowing me to extend the range, and the ability to access my router any time from the mobile app in case I am out of town for work and my wife is having trouble with the internet. The only reason I am giving this router 4 stars instead of 5 is because I had a situation in my house where I couldn't get my philips smart lights to reconnect to wifi after a power outage. after weeks of trying to get them to work and assuming it was the lights not working properly, I unplugged the router to clean up the wiring in my home office and after plugging the router back in the lights started working right again. I think there was an issue at the time with the lights not connecting to the router properly. Haven't had any issues since.

    I must say, I am truly impressed. Its easy to set up, the speed improved to an additional 200 per speed test. My husband likes the speed more and no more lagging when he is playing games. Compatibility wise, it connected to all the devices right away. What I like about this as well is that, regardless this is connected to our main internet router, it still made an impact on speed. When it comes to range, we live in a third floor apartment and i have wifi down to the parking lot. Over all I am really happy with my purchase.

    I've been using the ASUS RT-AX82U AX5400 Dual-Band WiFi 6 Router for a few weeks now, and I must say, it has exceeded my expectations in every aspect. From its sleek design to its powerful performance, this router has been a game-changer for my home network. First and foremost, the setup process was a breeze. With ASUS's intuitive interface and clear instructions, I had the router up and running in no time. The user-friendly interface made it easy to customize settings to fit my specific needs, whether it was setting up parental controls or optimizing bandwidth allocation.

    Got this one after my Netgear Nighthawk gave out! This was so easy to set up and the application is very intuitive. Excellent range as well, no extenders required for rooms at the opposite side of a 1800sq ft house with multiple walls between the router and computer or TV.
