    So, it was priced as a new item but they shipped me a clearly opened box (unsealed, items out of their plastic wrappers). This was a clearance item offered at a really good price, so I decided give it a chance. But Best Buy shouldn't not have done that.

    Great router! Easy to use. Haven’t tried to change the password yet, but assuming it’ll be easy. The NETGEAR I had bought was total crap, super hard to update passwords etc.

    These pair well with the GT-AX1100 Pro router for a seamless backhaul 5.9GHz channel. These help me get upstairs where no single router could get.

    This router is good, and the only reason I don't say "great" is because I am experiencing issues where the wi-fi randomly drops. This is something I did not experience with my previous Eero mesh router. The speeds are noticeably better, so time will tell if I can correct the dropping issues.

    Works great when it works. If WiFi node loses connection to router, node will not connect back. Every time it happen I spend a frustrating hour trying to get the node to reconnect.

    Honestly not great. Getting rid of them after almost 2 years of annoyances. Asus just pushed out an update that seems to have bricked one of the nodes and I’m just deciding to not deal with it. Much better options for cheaper or same price in my opinion.

    The box says it is Time Machine compatible; it is not. Time Machine worked on one of two devices for a week and has now failed as on the other device. It took considerable effort to get that far -- finding out how to make it work from other than the ASUS instructions and then time for several disk reformats and initial backups. Buy this as a router only.
