- Awesome Asus RT-AC86U - Wynand, 27 June 2022
This Wifi router is a game changer for gaming. Gigagit ethernet ports and incredibly fast wifi performance. The range is drastically better than anything I've used before.
- Excellent device - Garth, 20 June 2022
Used this for AIMESH with network backhaul. Upgraded firmware on both RT-AC86U, booted them up. Waited a few minutes and joined them via the GUI. No more wifi deadspots, speed per device is 400 Mbps +- on 5g wireless. For the price, you cant go wrong
- Asus RT-AC86U - Ashley, 6 June 2022
Thanx for the great service in delivering the Router within 24 hours of ordering. This Router I can recommend to anyone wanting a rock steady and reliable internet experience. I have the older RT-AC68U and this has been going for a couple of years very reliably. The setup is easy with Asus, basically plug and play installation. It took me all of 5 minutes to be up and running.
- No more wifi issues - Marlin, 1 June 2022
Struggled for months with my ISP with wifi speeds and decided to buy a better router. Worked out great because my wifi issues are now non existent, if you have wifi issue invest in a better router.
- Asus RT-AC86U - Michael, 6 October 2021
Brilliant router, solved all my connectivity issues around the house where I low signal strength and dead spots. Excellent Wi-Fi range with great signal quality. Definitely worth it! Easy to set-up with many extra's in the set-up.
