ASUSRT-AX5400 Dual Band WiFi 6 Extendable Router, Lifetime Internet Security Included, Instant Guard, Advanced Parental Controls, Built-in VPN, AiMesh Compatible, Gaming & Streaming, Smart Home

I had been using Eero mesh for a few years. Installed in bridged mode as I already have an excellent router. I kept having trouble with the Eeros, they worked great when I first got them but with each firmware update they seemed to be a little less reliable. Bridged mode really isn't the same as true AP mode, which perhaps contributed.I really don't need mesh anyway as my house isn't large. So I replaced the Eeros with this unit but configured it in pure AP mode. It has web page config (no need to use any app) and set up in minutes.All my performance and stability issues vanished. I did have one minor configuration issue and contacted ASUS for help. Customer servce was first rate and they got my issue sorted quickly.

I was replacing an older Asus router with this newer, faster model. I have not had any problems with this router, and it was an easy set up. No problem with connectivity and the product is a good value for the money.

As with any and all Asus routers I've had, simply the best! Tried a different popular brand, but just didn't compare. Brilliant range, stable connections, with excellent menu to cover any setting.

Great router. No issues other than it was expensive.

Was quick and easy to set up. Provides good speed and coverage to a 2400 square foot house; including a second floor bonus room plus front and back porches. Includes security features that other competitors only provide by paid subscription.

Great router simple to set up but I did have to mess with the channel settings to get a clear channel and not have interference with the neighbors. It doesn't do it automatically apparently. If you don't get the right channel, your signal is going to be horrible and it'll disconnect constantly.

Pros: Solid signal across multiple devices and over good physical distance. Easy setup with phone app.Cons: Atrocious, inexcusable error in firmware. 5 Ghz signal not able to be picked up by 20 tested devices, all thanks to faulty firmware that does not allow the control channel to be adjusted for the 5 Ghz radio. Manual shows that a drop-down menu is available for the control channel. Guess what? There is ONLY the AUTO option when you pull it up in the PC configuration menu. Phone app doesn't even have the functionality to change the control channel for some reason. First time I've had to return a router in 7 years and 5 purchases. Wasted my time and money to return a half-functional dual-band router.

This has replaced our old RT-AC68U from 10+ years ago, it is working MUCH better.
