RT-BE58U

Thank you Asus. So I just bought 2 of these routers and set up an "AiMesh" system. Fantastic purchase, asus is one of the few companies that lets you set up a mesh wifi network with an ethernet backhaul. Mesh system works great to be honest, i connected all smart devices TV's, robot vacuum, A/C split units and a photovoltaic inverter on a superate IoT network. the application is pretty nice and the setup on both pc and the app is pretty straightforward. If you're looking for a mesh wifi system, I bet any asus router will do the trick, for a very reasonable price (i bought 2 of these for 220 euros shipped). Another option was to go for a ubiquity system, even during black Friday the total cost for the main router and the extender would've been 350 euros, granted it does have a built-in PoE port. But in my case, i already had the ethernet cable routed to another room next to a wall outlet so it's not something that I needed. I'm super happy with the purchase, i recommend it to anyone.

I just did this. Was running 5 google wifi pucks gen 1 all hardwired around our 1964 lathe and plaster house. Upgraded to Sonic 10g. After some research I went with **Asus BQ16 Pro 2** pack. One each at the opposite corners of the house and then one **ASUS RT-BE58U WiFi 7 BE3600** for the garage, all wired cat6 backhaul. Black Friday got the BQ16 routers down to $715, and the BE3600 at $99. I ended up getting a couple TRENDnet 5-Port 10G Switches, TEG-S750. If you are just doing wifi and don't need anything 10G on your network you can skip this. So far wifi reception has been great, even out in the backyard where my google wifi pucks struggled. The router interface is easy to use and has options that other routers charge you for. My iPhone 16 was getting 1350 Mbps speed test in the living room with the router. Right now in the middle of the house between the two routers I'm getting 747 Mbps on the iPhone.

Go for a WIFI 7 Mesh system. I Love ASUS, excellent software,frequent firmware updates. Good Luck!

Got rid of my shitty nest wifi pro and bought a wifi 7 Asus aimesh network setup. Light years ahead and can reliably stream my PC at over 100mbps over wifi. So can do the portal with ease whereas the nest could not

When my Nest wifi was finally on its last life, I purchased a much more expensive Asus mesh router setup that supported wifi 7. For whatever reason the more advanced features of MLO didn't work with my TV. So basically I had to cripple my expensive setup to work with the device I use all the time. I ended up returning that and switched to the Nest Pro and have had no issues. Been about a year now. Solid connectivity and speed. I bought the 2 pack for 250, not on sale.
