Best Consumer Grade Wireless Router on the Market Right Now
Added this RT-AX86U to my existing RT-AX88U to create an AiMesh system. ASUS AiMesh is now on version 2.0 and it works much better than version 1. My AiMesh is configured with the RT-AX88U connecting to the cable modem and the RT-AX86U is a node using a wireless WiFi 6 backhaul. I know a wired backhaul would be better, but I am not able to run that cable. However, since my internet connection is only 200 down 10 up, I think the wireless backhaul is NOT being overloaded. I get the same speedtest benchmarks regardless if my laptop WiFi connection is to the RT-AX88U or to the RT-AX86U. IMHO the RT-AX86U is the best consumer grade wireless router available right now. For me, it's only weak point is that it only has four LAN ports, but an inexpensive switch would fix that. Also, the ASUS-Merlin firmware has just become available for the RT-AX86U. Having that firmware installed makes both routers and AiMesh even better.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

great router for the price!
great wifi range speed. Have 1.2gps circuit at home, and can access the full speed via the 2.5g ethernet port. Asus-WRT firmware is great, and the merlin firmware that you can download makes this router even better! Several options, but even just using it as a basic wifi router, will deliver great results.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great Router Good Price
Great ASUS WiFi6 router, great coverage, great performance. I have it installed as part of a 3-way mesh covering a 3 story house of 4K soft serving 35 devices 18 wired, 17 wireless. I get over 750 Mbps on my wireless devices (WiFi6) from my Gbit service from Comcast. Color me Ok with that.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

RT-AX86U
This router is great piece of kit for setting up a secure network. I use the child features to protect my boys from the nasties that the internet can off. Also the mesh is simple to get working.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Most definitely a smart purchase.
The capabilities of this router are definitely up to snuff. Multitudinous reviews have said their acclaims for this router, and this is no different, even if used. The price to value ratio of this router cannot be understated. Not once have I had a single problem with this router. Even with heavy gaming and family internet usage across 5 members. Not once have I had a single problem in the past month I've owned it, no spikes or downs. This is an upgrade all around over my 10 year old Nighthawk AC1750, which in itself was also a very good router for the price. If you're looking for a router upgrade, this is by far the best one for performance to price ratios.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Worth the extra expense!
Started out by buying an inexpensive wifi-6 router at Walmart late at night to replace mine which had just died. Bought this one because it seemed to be the best bang for the buck. The Walmart one would have to be reset every 20-30 hours, and I have yet to have to reset this one for over a week. Plus the signal quality remains consistently great with more range than before. I am consistently getting MBPS above the level I am paying for with my service provider.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

WiFi 6
This router is fast, easy to set up and has worked well. Note that the documentation is a bit sparse on what is actually happening behind the scenes for advanced users. You are also recommended to use the manufacturer's setup the first time through rather than trying to set up manually. After that, mods are easy to do.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Asus RT-AX86U is easy to set up and works for my needs
The ASUS RT-AX86U replaced a D-Link product and so far the Asus is a big improvement. It was easy to set up and the Wifi signal is strong throughout the house. The app is also very user friendly.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
