    Simple set up, great range, and extremely fast. Game mode is a nice feature that actually works by improving latency/ping. Asus mesh system is a great feature as well. Needed to get internet to my shop so an upgrade made sense. Works seamlessly for my needs.

    Bought this to replace my Nighthawk XR500. So far I’ve seen a noticeable improvement in overall connectivity and performance. Also love the ability in the app to monitor network traffic. Will be adding more Mesh routers to this in the near future.

    Nice router, easily handles my new and faster fiber optic service of 500mb. Quick setup and high quality were the calling cards for this device and Best Buy had it in stock at a super price. I'm glad I went to Best Buy for this purchase.

    Great Wifi 6 router for Gaming.

    Great router so far. Upgraded from Netgear Nighthawk XR500. The jump from Wifi 5 to Wifi 6 is night and day difference. Went from 200-250 download on 5g to 500+ while using a Netgear Wifi 6 adapter and 400+ while using wifi on my Asus motherboard. I initially had 100mbps on wired but after firmware upgrade and hard reset, download speeds are 900+ and I have 1gbps download plan. I also swapped router because I was experiencing lag in game while wired and that went away once switching. I guess that's the difference between routers released 4 years apart. Netgear Nighthawk was dual core and this Asus Ax5700 is quad core with more RAM.

    Works well. Good amount of settings and customization easily available through the web console. The router will seem to freeze or stop broadcasting the wireless networks, once every few months, but a quick reboot fixes it.

    Super fast router and a nice strong signal. Upgraded to this because my old router was struggling to reach the whole house. This router has no problems with that and gives me super fast speeds everywhere.

    [Employee of bestbuy] Great router with excellent range. The cable modem router I was renting from Xfinity only gave me 100mbps from my router to my room. This thing is giving me over 500mbps wirelessly in my room. Great improvement! I also really like the ASUS router app. It's cool to see the current network traffic and have the ability to enable parental controls on a device-to-device basis. I might still return it as I didn't realize it only has 1gbps ethernet ports. Debating getting the ASUS ROG Rapture GT-AX11000 Pro instead since it has 2.5gbps ethernet.

    I have few of these in my house and they're incredible!!! They're all connected by ethernet to my modem. I have the tx power turned down for my central home unit and directional ALFA APA-M25 antenna's for the unit pointing down my driveway and street and another facing my backyard and garrage. The directional units are locked to 20mhz channels and can really cover some distance. The bandwidth limiter for the guest networks works flawless, no buffer bloat or packet loss.

    Have been using this for just over a month now and have not encountered any problems whatsoever so far! Despite some of the other mentions about buggy app/router, have not personally experienced at all. Previous router was also an Asus and it worked great as well…only reason to upgrade was to capitalize on the higher speeds that my plan allowed. Had been eyeing this router for months, but ended up missing the boat and eventually just bit the bullet on the pro version as had rewards to use up. I don’t necessarily think I needed the pro version so can’t attest to whether it makes any difference in terms of performance. All in all, so far don’t have any complaints about this router and it’s been a trusted brand in my household.

    So far great! Just installed today (12/22) and the increase in range and speed throughout the house is fantastic. Just what I was looking for in a wireless router.
