ASUS ZenWiFi Whole-Home Tri-Band Mesh WiFi 6E System (ET8 2PK), Coverage up to 5,500 sq.ft & 6+Rooms, 6600Mbps, New 6GHz Band, AiMesh,Instant Guard

Extremely fast, except not a damn thing will stay connected reliably. I’ve got recent devices too.

The product lasted about 18 months and just stopped working. The App on my iPhone went blank and Tech support gave me the option to mail it back to them which would take 2 weeks to repair minimum or contact Amazon. Of course Amazon could give a flip about me working from home and being without internet access for 2 weeks. So I can chalk up $529 for AI Mesh system to about 18-month life span with NO local support. Moral of this story, do NOT but networking gear from Amazon, stick with a local vendor like Best Buy.

There were some reviews indicating issues, which worried me a bit, but I experienced none. Im glad I got an Asus router (lots of options to fiddle with and I can use my old repeater as an AiMesh node). I had it all set up within minutes. After I verified speed and coverage I turned the WiFi radios off on my AT&T BGW-XXX modem/router combo and set this units SSID and password to my old one and all (several dozen) devices around my house connected to this with no issue. Im getting speeds above 500 Mbps in most rooms of my house with pings between 18 and 35 ms. This is a speed increase of 10x in some areas of my house.

I purchased a white Asus ZenWifi mesh system (2) units to replace what was a wifi router and an extender from a competitor which had lackluster results. Nevermind the fact they had stellar reviews and at the top of the list where Asus didnt even appear.

These arent fast or reliable. These are horrible mesh with an horrible app. They consistently drop signal and need restarted daily! Stay away!

I love the speed and the coverage with this router and mesh node. The challenge has been older 2.4G equipment (amazon echos, amazon plugs, amazon firesticks, HUE lights/bridge, HP wireless printer, etc...). For some of the devices I was able to create a 2.4G guest network and add them to that. Something about a shared SSID across 2/5/6 G did not work for the older equipment. My old HP OfficeJet 8610 printer could see the networks but just would not connect. Luckily for me the printer is very close to the router so I was able to fix the issue by just using a CAT5 cable.

Good product from Asus, lots of customization options within the operating system. However, does not work well with Verizon FIOS (1Gb/s), does not get full 1Gb/s (i.e. ~1,000 Mb/s) upload speeds. For me, tops out at about 200Mb/s upload. Download speed does reach 1Gb/s.

Desktop app is excellent!

After trying to cope with a Google Nest system, we coughed up a little more money for this system.

This was simple to install and solved our problem of dead spots for wifi service in our home. All areas are now covered satisfactorily.
