So basically, that is not a 100% Wi-Fi 7 router, it has some capabilities of the new technology, like MLO and 4K-QAM, but not the 6Ghz band, which is the main future for me. And i thought that only Chinese brands, like ZTE, Huawei and Xiaomi are using this misleading labeling, as i have seen on AliExpress, but that is normal because in China the Wi-Fi 7 is a work in progress, as i read online.
OO wow, you are right. The noob that I am. I did not check for tri-band features on the new routers. I just saw some articles that xiaomi was the first one to release wifi 7 routers. If only I learned a little bit more before buying. That being said I wonder. The Router 7000, before the December 2023 update was not wifi7 able. Only after the update it was able to do a tri-band wifi. I have 4 xiaomi routers, all with so called wifi7. But in reality only one has true wifi7. Is it possible that the hardware is there but the wifi7 is just not enabled? Like it will need an upgrade? Why would they do this to their biggest router, that was initially not wifi7, but promote the new one's with wifi7 then to just be unabled to get it? Makes no sense...
@ Fiber optic network terminals are supplied by the ISP in my area and provider. It’s a Nokia ONT with fiber input from ISP and 2.5g Ethernet output to the Asus router
As someone who has owned (2) Asus RT-AX88U, one has the main router and one as an AiMesh, this will be perfect to replace the main router to give me 2.5gbps for two desktop PC's I have and fully utilize my 2gbps fiber to the home connection. It's nice that I can leave my existing RT-AX88U in place and use it as an AiMesh.
Alex thanks for the review, won’t miss the 6k bandwidth my experience is that it has very short range and can deliver little more than the 5ghz anyway I have a ASUS ZenWiFi Pro WiFi 6E, ET12 twin setup in my house and have just ordered one to use as the main router thanks to your review.
Hi Alex. That was a good review … thank you. I have a quick question please. I live out in a rural area, so have to depend on a 4g card in my current router. The specs for this Asus bad boy say it has a “3G / 4G LTE dongle” so does that mean I could slot a SIM card into this and get this to work? I am assuming it won’t work on 5g, which is a pain if not. Any recommendations for a router which will support 4g and 5g? Many thanks. Keep up the good work.
what is a nice feature this router supports LinkAgregation and Game Mode for trafic priority. For me was the best fit for Wifi7 + 10Gbps/2.5Gbps Managed Switch + Router with VPN at 10gb Wan so at the price of 350E was the best for the buck!
Maybe one of you will enlighten me. I currently have VDSL2, but there is a chance that in a few months I will have fiber optics. That is why I am slowly looking around for a new router. Currently I have ASUS DSL-AC52U, which by current standards can be considered poor, but for VDSL2 nothing faster makes sense. I would like to buy another ASUS, because I like the ASUS-WRT system. What is the difference between a traditional router with external antennas that supports mesh and a dedicated mesh set? Is it only about built-in antennas and possibly the number of Ethernet/USB ports, or is there something else?
Sorry I might sound like an idiot here but as I understood the 2.4 GHz is for range and 5 GHz is for more throughput. By the same logic 6Ghz might give you a little more throughput but with reduced range. I live in a double brick house and the 5 GHz is useless past one solid wall so I think it's over rated. I only use it to connect to stuff within the same room as the router and I have the AC88U. I was considering the AX88U but might look at this one. Has been rock solid as long as you keep it cool. Which is the important tip. Most routers give up the ghost due to heat..... Essentially have a laptop cooler under it and it has never given me trouble.
This is a terrific router and it was easy to set up and get my web server working behind it as well as my network attached storage. For all the features that matter it really works well. Now there are a few bells and whistles on this router that don't work. One is the built-in speed test it seems to be unable to connect to the server and the other is the firmware update and firmware version check which are unable to connect to the server. However all the client devices have good internet connectivity which makes it baffling that the administrative features built into the router do not. Other than that once I set it up all the features that matter to me work very well.
See I'm using Unifi granted their express gateway however I'm only getting 500mbps rather than the 1gb I used to get with the Eero from my provider. Seems to be an issue that I cannot find a fix for online
tri band, 2.5gb port, 5g mobile back up or switchable feed in or shared with wan port, Mesh support for any manufacture, open source firmware and cost only £50 lol
Hi, maybe a stupid question, but are there still routers with a wifi on/off knob? Because now i have a RT-AC68U and this one have it, so my wife can put wifi on or off with just a knob.... I dont always leave wifi on, thats why..... I know, i can set the radio's off in the asus router app but she doesnt know that app or how to use it....
ASUS VLAN implentation is still bit wonky. I couldn't ever get it working correctly. When straying away from the standard WiFi stuff. Also fun fact VLANS on ASUS routers have worked for awhile. You could also use VLAN 501, 502, 503 for example which where enabled when you enabled the guest WiFi network, but it also applied to ethernet.
That removeable antenna means i can use my own antenna if i want to, don't nitpick like an average user for an enthusiast product like that, if Asus uses unremoveable antenna in their next product I'll blame it on you since you have influence unlike me since It's getting harder to find router with removeable antenna in my country
Yes, same Here. Still need to replace my Sophos SG330 with PFsense for something wich support SFP+ . Switching is fully MikroTik because of the low price for 10G (6 years in Rack now) And the Accespoints are UniFi.. (6 LR and Pro) I would never buy an “all in one” consumer product for my house. But its fine for the most people I know :)
So I guess when Wi-Fi 8 comes out which is coming out soon that's way better than Wi-Fi 7 and it supports more streams and more efficient instead of just replacing $100 $200 access point you go to buy another beast router for 600 bucks huh😊
Did you bleat out this same BS when wireless-G came out... and N... and AC... and AX... and AXE? Uhhh duhhh u kneed duh devices 2 support duh wireless konexion Y knot weight 10 moar yearz 4 faster stuf?
If you want to upgrade your hardware every generation, and you're spending your own money to do it, then good luck to you. The same argument could be used for Phones, or cars, or PC hardware. If you want the latest stuff, naturally you need to spend money on it (or run a RUclips hardware testing channel ;-)). Personally, I'm looking to upgrade from a decade-old DSL-AC68U now that I'm *finally* getting off a copper connection and I'm already using an AI Mesh network, so I'm very interested to see how this piece of kit performs
I have to give it to them. Nice job Asus. PS. But .... if we leave the wifi on the side then there are many devices far cheaper and better with these capabilities. If you combine it yes its a good alternative but with such a price I would at least expected remote management or something (yes vpn but no thanks)
If you... put the main feature and cost center of the device to the side, then there are better devices with... the non-primary function of this router. Baffling.
Alex, I have a question. Since the BE88U has a SFP+ port, could I connect a fibre optic cable directly from the wall instead of connecting it to an ONT/modem then to the BE88U for direct Internet?
This is a router, not an ONT which are different. PS, your ISP must support any 3rd party ONT you want and they need to configure it as well. UniFi has an ONT, and some people around the world succeeded to use it, some couldn't and some ISP refused to use it but the guys succeeded to hack things together. My own ISP accept only their supplied ONT/AIO Router device, thankfully, we can enter the admin and do some configuration.
@@tim3172 I guess my wording were not clear, by "Your ISP must support any 3rd party ONT" I didn't mean you choose the ONT and your ISP must support it. I meant before choosing the ONT you must choose a compatible ONT that is supported by your ISP. And then went to the other point about wether the ISP actually allows the use of other ONTs or not.
Yes, 3 ports can be used as WAN (10gb, 10gb sfp or 2.5gb). It also has a WAN AGG setting that I think will do 2 of the 2.5gb ports taking away one of the LAN ports.
I wonder if this will suffer from the 'just past warranty' dead ports issue that several of my ASUS routers suffered with; only a power cycle would get them back, not ideal when you have cameras, NAS and home auto attached. ASUS know how to make a GUI though, I'll give them that.
Wi-Fi 7 and you show 900mbs speed ! is that fast for WIFI 7 ???? my Free ISP rourter WIFI 6 router AX5400 giving me 1.5gbps No drop with over 20 devices connected to it .
Most of Internet providers in Thailand lent you Wi-Fi 6 ONU AX1200 to AX3000, you can get AX5400 but you need either pay for more expensive plan or negotiate with ISP. ISP's ONU is usable for normal folk, but SPEC still lacking even AX5400 ones will occasionally drop packages and cause latency spike. I don't see any providers lent Wi-Fi 7 ONU yet.
@anonymous12292 no point of using wifi 7 when I am getting 2Gbps from my ISP router . Yes, there are many functions missing , but as speed , I get way more than what he is saying fast . I dont see any 1200AC from ISP. it all depends on ur speed, which starts from 300mbps . Also They give a router which perform, there is no negotiation if u get high-speed internet, also its only 35 USD for a month for 1.5Gbps, download 1Gbps upload. You call that expensive ? I bought ROG Rapture GT-BE98 and did not improve my connection at all ( maybe 5 % stable) but no effect on online gaming/download/ping /latency. I was lucky to get a refund as they sold it with the promise of improvement, and I did not deliver for me.
@@anonymous12292 I am using 640AS 5400AX now 2 of them , Connected MESH , Getting 2.8 Gb link speed on phone , and 2.5 Gb link speed on all my other compatible devices . Again yes the function and many feature are missing but Its free and performing better than 300 USD Router. even my cheap 1800AX TP-ink giving me over 1gb download and upload. If you re willing to pay that much for a router better to have faster internet, but still this router priced much better than ROG Rapture GT-BE98. basically you are buying switch and router in 1 which is acceptable.
This guy clearly doesn't do / know tech (networking) very well, first off he said the wrong name in the video...ooofff, and then his gripe is external antenna's, umm hello, if you want the best WiFi you need external antenna, any wireless router without external antenna's you should avoid...and this is where I turned off the video...more terrible tech tubers....sad!

I currently use the AX88U Pro which replaced my EOL AC88U. Don't think this is enough for another upgrade yet!
Also If I was to upgrade to BE88U Asuswrt-Merlin isn't supporting BE88U.

Way better than the new FritzBox 5690 Pro and XGS,does it work on a Symmetrical 10 Gigabit XGS-PON FTTH Connection?😊

Video ideas meeting: “Shall we create a super geeky video filled with pointless man jargon to try and isolate a lot of subscribers?” Well your video was a success 😎🤣💩
You cal this junk without 6GHz all-in-one? W5f, non-professional sofa blogger?
I don't need 6Ghz, working within 5 meters.
Well what can i say got one , its rubbish sent it back my wifi 5 unify kit is better .
I agree, its a load of junk, very over engineered, almost impossible for the everyday Jo to set up, and the firmware is buggy as hell.

@@tim3172 what are you talking about, they are RJ45 ports on the back, it doesn't have even one RJ11 port on it what so ever.
It’s not meant for the average consumer. They don’t have 10gig let alone know anything about VPNs and VLANs.
Eh, still consumer grade. Plus no 6GHz kills it for me
