Worth every penny.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great, no lag in the house, doesn't even matter if you're up in the attic. The wifi signal is even strong down by our firepit, a good 30 yards from the router.

I did not want to buy another router.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far so good. I have the 86U which failed before year one. Could wait for Asus to process the RMA/Service Order so I bought this one (RT-AX86U) to get me by and be a backup for when the 86U comes back from Asus. I did the setup on this one with the Asus router app on my phone. Nice and easy peasy. the 86S won't do 2.5 gig but for ow that is fine.

Asus makes rhe best routers
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Asus Mesh is great. You have complete control over your Asus router unlike TP Link which requires you to sign up for their subscription service.

Very low latency on wifi

Great product, great price, Not so great delivery
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The product is great, and the price was the best. Best Buy delivery leaves a lot to be desired. Superfast home delivery sounds great, and it is when it happens. Changing the dates just as you are hitting the final order. Constant "We're sorry but your delivery is delayed" messages, and finally getting it when anybody could have shipped it by really makes me lose confidence.

Lightening Fast Wi-Fi
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.ASUS is lightening fast. Was shocked, not use to not having problems. Our household has 4 TV's, 3 desktop computers, two of which are for gaming, 3 laptops, iPads, tablets, and phones...Yikes! Ages from 68 down to a 2 year old great-grandson, who knows how to use electronics. Have not had any buffering, slowdowns, kick-offs, interruptions, just smooth service. I have told many people to purchase this router!
