AiMesh is ASUS’s popular feature that enables its standalone routers and access points to work as part of a robust mesh Wi-Fi system.
Asus’s second Wi-Fi 7 purpose-built mesh system, the ZenWiFi BT10, had a rough start. From the launch in early June until recently, the hardware proved buggy. Among other things, the satellite unit couldn’t stay wirelessly connected for longer than a day or so, especially with the MLO feature turned on. …
The RT-BE86U BE6800 is the second dual-band Wi-Fi 7 router from ASUS you can bring home today. In more ways than one, it’s a lesser hardware alternative to the first sans-6GHz RT-BE88U I tested in June. However, since this new RT-BE86U costs less yet has similar excellent performances in my …
The RT-BE88U, first announced in late March, is ASUS’s third standalone Wi-Fi 7 router after the RT-BE96U and GT-BE98 Pro, and it’s a special one. Unlike any other Wi-Fi 7 broadcasters I’ve seen, the RT-BE88U is unique in that it does not feature the 6GHz band. It’s a new type …
If you’ve been wondering when you can get more affordable options for ASUS’s Wi-Fi 7 routers besides the existing expensive hardware, we now have the answer. Today, the company unveils a long list of broadcasters complementing its current offerings, consisting of five standalone routers and one purpose-built mesh solution. All …
Since first announced on January 10 this year, the ZenWiFi BQ16 Pro has been an intriguing and highly anticipated mesh system. As it finally becomes available for purchase, I’d say it’s worth the wait—a completely different experience from the similar yet anticlimactic hardware that is the TP-Link Deco BE95. Indeed, …
In a way, each router of the 2-pack ASUS ExpertWiFi EBM68 AX7800 Tri-Band Business Wi-Fi 6 System is a combination of the EBA63 access point and the EBG15 non-Wi-Fi router. And in that sense, it’s simply a more powerful variant of the EBR63 router. That’s to say, the new mesh …
The EBA63 is not a huge deal in terms of Wi-Fi. In fact, it’s rather dated in specs, supporting the mid-tier AX3000 Wi-Fi 6. However, it’s the first standalone access point of ASUS’s new ExpertWiFi family and features Power over Ethernet (PoE), something previous hardware of the same specs, such …
The ExpertWiFi EBG15 is an interesting router. Despite having “WiFi” in the name, it’s the first in ASUS’s new ExpertWiFi family not to have built-in Wi-Fi. In return, it’s tiny and incorporates a powerful feature set, including VLAN and all things VPN, to earn the full name of Gigabit VPN …
The ROG Rapture GT-BE98 Pro quad-band Wi-Fi 7 router is a sizable step up from the RT-BE96U. It represents the ROG gaming family and has everything the older cousin has, plus four extra Multi-Gigabit ports and a ton of gaming-related features. Here’s the bottom line: The GT-BE98 Pro is definitely …
I always believed the ASUS RT-AX88U Pro would be my last Wi-Fi 6 router review. Then, the ExpertWiFi EBR63 happened. Unveiled in the first days of 2023 and available almost a year later, this new router represents an entirely different product line of ASUS, the ExpertWiFi. It’ll be the first …
