Best router for me suggestions please (Australia) 2k budget?
Wow if I'm honest AUD$1300 for a home router setup is insane. Even TP Link's own BE9700 would be more than adequate for under $400, and Ubiquiti or Asus offer equiv/superior options for the same money. I won't suggest any specific models as I don't know which manufacturers meet your Customer Support

Advice - 1200 Sq Ft House - Router Recs?
Hardwire everything you can. I just got an ASUS RT-BE82U which is dual band and has been very stable, although most of the time most of my traffic runs over wired. I have 33 total devices right now. The BE82U is dual-band, they also have tri-band models if you have devices that support 6GHz or are u

Asus Aimesh and Easy Mesh main, Will it work??
Between the ASUS TUF AX6000 and the ASUS RT-BE82U, I'd choose the RT-BE82U as the router for these reasons: Even though it only has 2x2 for 2.4ghz, it has 4x4 for 5ghz, which is more important [higher speed band]; it is WiFi 7 (dual band but still, newer tech); all its WAN/LAN ports are 2.5gigabit;

Simple
An important thing to look at is the size of your house and number of devices you have that will run off wifi and how many on ethernet if you dont have a switch.

What’s the best overall WiFi router for home use these days?
We're happy with our 802.11be Asus RT-BE82U Router bought a few months ago in Dec 25. It has more than enough ports for us. There's no problem with wifi reach, but it's a smallish one-storey home. We don't do competitive gaming, just single player games (with no problem). No problem with our smartho

Netgear or Tplink for my next router. Thoughts?
Sorry to hear the ASUS isn’t working out. I have an ASUS XT8 mesh system and had a similar issue with 2.4ghz IoT devices dropping off the network & reconnecting. I fixed it by switching the router config for the 2.4ghz WiFi network to use a fixed channel (1) instead of AUTO selecting the channel. Si
