RT-AX57 Go

Preach it! Got new huawei, since I already had an older one(router 3) - wanted to simply use new one as dedicated VR router. On paper it was great - in practice is was constant stutter for no reason; No matter what I did with setting, nothing changed - in fact, it was worse than my old huawei. Got a new asus(rt-ax57) - no problems, basically perfect quality in the same exact setup, same settings for wifi.

I use Asus RT-AX57 Go - a great choice.

I've had horrible experiences with TP link. Been really happy with my Asus mid range router. YMMV

72 including tax. It's an rt - ax57

Yes, set up is easy. I was a network engineer, but I think the process is simple even without any expertise. I'd recommend not buying the latest or most expensive router and look for a well reviewed mid range option.

Also, just use the same network name (ssid) and pw as your old network and all your devices won't require any modification.

Nah dude, you don’t need to waste money on one of those “network security plans.” Most consumer routers are fine right out of the box as long as you tweak a few settings. If you grab something decent in the $100–$150 range (TP-Link Archer AX21, ASUS RT-AX57, Netgear, etc.), just do this after setting it up: • Change the default admin login. • Use WPA2 or WPA3 for Wi-Fi security. • Turn off WPS and remote management. • Keep firmware updated. That’s honestly 90% of what those “security subscriptions” do anyway, minus the upsell. When the tech installs that Cat6 wall jack, you’ll just plug your new router into it and you’re good. You’ll save cash over time and still be plenty secure.

I have an RT-AX57 and it works fine. I use a 2.4ghz channel. I also assign dhcp fixed addresses to each speaker. I wish I could get 2 acre coverage from my router which is also on the 2nd floor.

I’m using the ASIS RT AX57 and it is great, also in 1000sqft apartment

You honestly would probably get away with a travel router like the Asus RT-AX57go or the newer Wi-Fi seven version of it. There is certainly no need to spend over $100 unless you want Wi-Fi seven with the 6GHZ banned. Though, before I can give you any solid, end all be all advice that what I just said above is the truth, I need to know, what devices are they, and what is the speed grade of your ISP plan?
