the only wifi 6 devices we have are our phones, everything else is AC or N and will likely not be getting many wifi6 devices in the next couple years. It uses NitroQAM (1024-QAM) modulation technology to deliver potential throughput speeds of up to 750Mbps on the 2. I suspect it was discontinued quietly and replaced by multiple AX3000/AX5400 versions of RT-AX58U (including V2) base hardware.I recently switched from Virgin media, I've been with them for about 10 years and never had a problem but switched to BT as they were offering more for less. Not necessarily 120% of other routers, though: in our test environment (yours may vary, such is the interaction of walls and Wi-Fi signals) its performance and spread was directly comparable to the Linksys WRT32X, a much more expensive router. Asus RT-AC86U Quick Specs Asus AC2900 router: Detail photos A pair of RT-AC86U units will make a great AiMesh system. This gives you a super-fast option for printing, storing files on an external hard drive or transferring files.

The RT-AC86U uses the same web-based management console and mobile app used to control the RT-AC88U that we reviewed a while back.This router also has still unresolved software issue mostly affecting user scripts in Asuswrt-Merlin and firmware components like Traffic Analyzer, Web History or Client List. wifi networks (main, guest and IoT), a load of devices and a NAS running OpenVPN so I can remotely access the local home network, and a local DNS server for serving some *. You might think the 86U’s antennas are too high for the chamber antennas to properly capture their signal.

Since you have wired backhaul, you can just reverse the roles of the current hardware units and you’re set. No similarly-specced routers from other networking vendors can come even close to the number of features and value it has to offer. And with extras like GameBoost and AiProtection, the Asus RT-AC86U is perfect for anyone looking to improve their home network.What’s really bugging me is you keep using the term “real world”, and even IF – and I am very skeptical here – you’re achieving the throughput you’re claiming under the conditions you’re claiming, you absolutely cannot expect that most (or even many) of your readers will be achieving anything similar during their own “real world” usage.
