ASUS - ROG Rapture GT6

I have the Asus GT6 mesh system on your list. I have one on the first floor and the other on the second floor covers everything with ease. I have 1gig service and on my phone speed testing I get around 780's mbs. The good thing is on the main one you can hardwire into and the second one, you can backbone hardwire also.

I have 3 Asus GT-6 routers in mesh formation. MOCA coax backhaul between them and they work great. I have about the same number of devices and priorities.

I upgraded mine (5+ years old) with Asus ROG GT6. Quite expensive but it’s great with no issues at all.

Asus GT6. I installed this a year ago and didn’t find any issues. Mine is 400 sq meters

I used to like the nest but never got the speeds promised until I bought Asus rog router and mesh link wow I’m getting the whole gig almost every where in the house

yeah 100% a scam... I went from 120mbps default isp modem was getting 21ms, upgraded nic to 2.5gbps, internet to 500mbps and gaming router configured to perfection (QoS, etc) and now im sitting at 26-29ms LOL - edit: running an Asus ROG gaming router with 2.5g port(s)

Only reason I bought one because at the time when I upgraded my speed to multi gig and needed 10G WAN and 10 LAN, the only option was an ROG Gaming router. Otherwise, there's nothing on it that justifies an upgrade from my regular Asus router

I personally use all rog routers using their AI mesh

I was previously using Linksys products before they were sold to Belkin, and then switched to ASUS routers, I have had two main routers by them, both ROG. Plus many others I’ve used as AiMesh Nodes. I haven’t had any trouble them. Their tech support was helpful the few times I’ve reached out to them. They even replaced there router free of charge with a NEW one (not refurbished) of the same model when I had an issue not related to the quality of product. A few ports on the routers switch went bad after a near Lightning strike caused EMP damage to it (a lot of networking gear from different companies got damaged) I have no qualms about ASUS and their products have never given me problems.

FYI , all of our current routers and mesh product all have extensive on router functionality including Open, Wireguard and much more. As such you could pick BT6, 8, 10, 16 our any of the routers. Also all of the units have our Gaming QoS option for prioritizing game packets and or specific systems, if you want a more streamlined experience our gaming models ( ROG, ROG STRIX, TUF GAMING ) also have dedicated Gaming Ports which are pre configured should you connect your device to that port. You can also do this manually through our firmware/app. Also note unless you need the coverage specific to a kit ( which can be done via AiMesh ) on the router side you have the benefit of no backhual use maximizing throughput if you are within the coverage area of a router.

I have an Asus ROG with an Access Point and haven't been happier. I've got 3 bands set, one for guest, 1 for 2.4 and 5. I can set up a website for guest mode and have all the control I need through their app. My coverage is a 3000sq ft single story and I can get a signal all through my yard. I moved away from Google and others because I needed dedicated bands for IoT devices. I have 30 devices connected, most dormant, but still hold 130mbps+ for each on a 500mb ISP. I stream all TV and WFH without issues.
