    • Both bands have great coverage - make sure to orient one of the antennas parallel to the ground, that can give you a good performance boost.
    • Solid security features, plenty of customization options, clean UI, excellent performance, reliable, solid solid solid.
    • Performance: I had purchased the router because it was recommended by Nvidia support that getting a router with MU-MIMO capability was a good idea for enhancing streaming as well as one that was dual band
    • Great 2.4 and 5G performance.
    • Don't know about the the performance of this unit except that it has great wireless performance and syncs
    • Performance is good in a two story house.
    • Super easy set up, great performance thus far.
    • Super easy set up, great performance thus far.
    • Solid performance and great range! Make sure and update the firmware right out of tht gate but thus far, no problems...
    • Performance has been good
    • ASUS tech support was completely unhelpful, suggesting the use of LEGACY which did nothing but slowed performance, and selecting channel 11 which also did nothing to resolve the issue
    • For the money it's a great router with good features and top notch performance
    • While its wireless performance was good in close quarters (i.e. less than 25 ft), as soon as I walked over to the next room, or upstairs or to the basement, signal strength fell precipitously to the point that an iPhone would switch over to LTE
    • Solid performance

    • Quality isn't as good as
    • The only thing that does not work as I would like is the url and keyword filter, but this is a known problem with filtering some webpages, as the router instructions say it cannot filter any secure website that use compression or https; although it will filter pages that have only http
    • The range is good, as I can use the WiFi portion in any room of my house as well as in my detached garage
