I recently tried the AX5700 and, unfortunately, it didn’t meet my needs. Despite its solid specs, I experienced inconsistent speeds and occasional connectivity drops, making it unreliable for my setup. The router was easy to set up, but it just didn’t deliver the performance I expected. Ultimately, I returned it because it wasn’t worth the hassle for my usage. However, it could still be a good option for someone who doesn’t require high speeds or rock-solid connectivity—perfect for basic browsing or light usage. Just be aware of its limitations before purchasing.

Super users friendly and so many features compared to the other routers I have owned. Well worth it and super easy to set up. The range is not as good as my last one but cover the whole house just has weak signal at the end of my driveway. 2000-2100 sqft house perfect for this size house.

Has great coverage of my 2600 sqft and can keep good connection within 300 ft outside. The only problem I run into is keeping up a consistent speed of download.

Very good and speedy router. The setup was extremely easy including changing the SSID and passwords and updating the firmware. Hope to get a better life than past routers that failed after just two years.

Router worked great with the firmware that came out of the box. After updating the new firmware wouldn't assign over 100 Ethernet connect devices. Had to assign each manually. I've since upgraded to the ET12 Mesh what a huge improvement.
