ASUS RT-AXE7800 Tri-band WiFi 6E Extendable Router, 6GHz Band, 2.5G Port, Subscription-free Network Security, Instant Guard, Advanced Parental Control, Built-in VPN, AiMesh Compatible, Smart Home, SMB

I love that this had 8 Ethernet ports. I decided to upgrade my RT-AC1900P (older router) with this due to the advertised specs. It was easy to setup and love ASUS routers. This one let me down though. Compared to my older router this router dropped wifi every 3 hours or so. I messed with the settings for a few days but couldnt get it to stop doing it. I started to disable features but then asked my self what is the point of upgrading the router if I have to disable the features that make this better.

Setup is really easy, about few steps, less than 5 mins, work with Fios modem.

My RT-AX88U died after 18-months. The unit shutdown and now wont power back on. Other issues experienced was 5ghz channel kept dropping out right out of the box.

The router is nice, fast, state of the art--but there is a serious issue with the slower 2.4 ghz band--I have only a few devices that default to the older band, and they all have trouble connecting and staying connected. Only a power-cycle on the router seems to fix it, and then it will come back. I tried everything I found online and it still does not work reliably. I will keep a bit longer, but I might still return this and go back to my older asus TMC1900 router--at least it worked--even if it wasnt quite as fast as the high end speed of the rt ax88u

Purchased in September 2019 and it died today (May 2021). I expected it to last more than two years. It sat in the same cool, dry spot the entire time and was exposed to no trauma. Worked great, until it didn’t, which is disappointing.

Great router, even allows you to put various security up. Well worth the price.

Not working. Not compatible to connect my cams Ring and Nest. I need to return to another brand of router.

I love this router. I have been using it for two months now and no issues. I use the Asuswrt-Merlin for my firmware and it has been stable without dropping signal. I have two other routers that I have paired it up with for aimesh and to set up everything took no time.

Ive given up on contacting support for help with this router. The main issues I have are associated with DHCP. If you do not have a necessary need to control DHCP addresses then this router will be fine. What I discovered is the following:

Great router. Doubled the speed to my wireless devices. Easy to use. Great software package.
