ASUS RT-AXE7800 Tri-band WiFi 6E Extendable Router, 6GHz Band, 2.5G Port, Subscription-free Network Security, Instant Guard, Advanced Parental Control, Built-in VPN, AiMesh Compatible, Smart Home, SMB

I have had decent luck with Asus networking products in the past. I bought this one because of the strong quad core CPU and coprocessor. I need the additional power to lessen the bandwidth hit from running OpenVPN on the router – a feature they advertise support on this router.

I bought 2 of these and hardwired them together. Setting up the second router is easy and it creates a seamless mesh network. No need to make one an access point or to manage settings on two routers.

So stressfu

I love Asus routers. This is the 3rd I have owned in 12 years. My old one was still working well. But I wanted to get the latest in security and speed. I get Spectrum broadband. On my old router the throughput speed was 30 to 45 mps. As soon as I installed this router the speed jumped to 70 mps consistently.

Wonderful so far. I’ve always had good luck with ASUS.

If you have a wifi 6 enabled device this is a awesome router! I came from another very high end router for my Spectrum Gig speed internet not wifi6. I have a Note 10+ and my wifi speed went from around 200-250mbps to almost 700mbps! No joke, multiple tests and still getting over triple the speed I was getting with my ROG router.

Excellent speed, lots of raw power, no issues. Note that I use Merlins firmware instead of the default, and highly recommend that for more features and stability. My old AC88U was great as well, but I couldnt pull 1 gig speeds without this upgrade.

I originally splurged on a Nighthawk RAX120 that was buggy as heck. Random wireless drops, router reboots, etc. I quickly sent that back.

A total waste of money. I bought this after my AC3100 died. I had to go back to that one after this one crapped out. Horrible. Return this fast.

I purchased the RT-AC88U for two main reasons - it has eight receptors for Ethernet cable and, according to at least one review and the ASUS literature, was supposed to have one of the largest ranges of any wireless router. Since the wiring in my house requires that I locate the router at one far end, the larger range was an important consideration.
