    • Fast, strong, reliable, works just as a charm
    • Range is better than the Asus and works perfect with Apple Air play, my Denon receiver, and every other device we have.
    • This worked great for about 2 months
    • Asus is doing amazing work with their routers, especially when it comes to keeping them updated
    • That being said...I should not have to do that to get a reliably working
    • I did some speed tests and everything appeared to be working great.
    • The dual band WiFi works great with outstanding coverage in my 3764 sqft house.

    • Devices with dual-band capability switched to 5 and kept working but others with 2.4 only died.

    • Everything seemed to be working well with most of my devices on the 2.4 ghz channel.
    • But the most basic feature (connect at 2.4 GHz frequency) randomly fails (5 GHz always worked)

    • Tri-band setting could still use some work, but otherwise easy to setup out of the box and get your whole home smothered in quick wifi.
