ASUSRT-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

One of the best WIFI router that using, has 2.5, 5 and 6GHz, perfect work with my AXE11000 as AiMesh client, supporting around 20 devices at this moment (IOT, PC, smart TV), although a bit pricy, it is good, has better signal than my AX-88U bought 6 years ago. Of course if you looking for future, may be go for Wifi 7 is an option.

So this is my full review of the ASUS RT-AXE7800.Packaging: when you get the Wi-Fi router your met with a black box, nothing really special inside other than the router itself, a network cable and a plug with both European and uk adapters.Setup: plugged this in and the connected to my sky q router that I’m using a modem using the WAN 2.5G port, I’ve turned the ssid off on the sky router and then use this as the access point. I also connected a 16port gigabit switch to the other WAN 2.5G port. Went through the setup using the ASUS router app available on play store and App Store. Set up is nice and easy and went on to create my network. One thing to note here is that the 2.4 &5ghz channels runs of a separate ssid along side the 6ghz channel. So you will have 2 ssid. I named mine asus so now have 1 showing as asus and another asus6g. Once that was all sorted nothing that was wired into the switch would work although Wi-Fi worked fine. I rebooted everything and tried again and it still didn’t work. Had to factory reset the Wi-Fi router and then set it up again and then it seemed to work fine so just bare this in mind if it happens to you.Performance: I replaced a 4 satellite mesh Wi-Fi system for this and the range is better with this than it was with the 4 satellites. My wireless security cameras no connect a lot quicker and the Wi-Fi generally speaking seems a little quicker overall, the INTERNET speed isn’t any different but it seems to load web pages and content a little quicker, possibly down to the better cpu in this router compared to the mesh system.I live in a reasonably sized house and get Wi-Fi in every room without issues.Downsides: haven’t really found any yet, the UI of the app is a little full on but other than that it’s all good, there are a LOT of options and settings to mess around with in the app but I left most of these off and didn’t have any issues.Verdict: I’d recommend this router, it’s solid performance and range was just what I was after and it’s future proof for anything coming out with 6e in the future.

Compact router. Works well and the setup was fairly easy. The network cables at the rear are a bit tricky to click in due to the size of the unit. It does look a bit cheap and plasticky and I have to say, it doesn't 'ooze build quality'. LED lights can be switched off using the app but there is no 'time' schedule option for this choice. Even when off there is still some blinking. It does the job for me.

Such a great router that performs exceptionally well. My Virgin Media hub 3 is/was aweful. My Xbox Series X download speed was always less that 90mbps. Even after suspending open games it never went above 90mbps. I always thought it was the Xbox's fault. After putting the hub 3 into modem mode, this router now gives it 500+ Mbps (wired).Haven't tried WiFi with Xbox, but wired is definitely the biz. . My Quest 3 runs ace using Wifi6 (pcvr steam games) but be aware that for some odd reason, WiFi 6 takes its sweet time being detected. Same. Issue with my Pixel 7a. I have no idea why it hides away so long, but it does work great with virtual desktop when connected. Worth noting though... if you take your Quest 3 off... you can lose WiFi connection.. and then have to reconnect. This is my second vr headset (after og vive) so this might be normal (shrugs).To sum up... pricey yes, but pretty awesome router and certainly future proofed (for the time being at least until WiFi7 appears)👌😎👍

Very disappointed with these. I have a fairly large area to cover but have no blind spots with my current mesh set up of 6x AX92u routers. Due to using wireless backhaul, I'm limited to around 450mbit from the nodes but the reviews and advertising suggested I should be able to get over 1gbit using the BE92u. Sadly this was not the case. The nodes insist on connecting to the main router, regardless of uplink preference settings and the range is pitifully small. There were huge gaps in coverage and speeds quickly dropped off as you walked out of the room with the primary router. Sat on top of it I was getting 1gb+ but 20ft away it was half that. Walk into the next room and there were disconnections or drops to 2.4ghz. Totally unfit for purpose (Asus support is really difficult to get through to and hopeless when you do!) and so I returned them. Back to my stable AX92us again. Ah well.
