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

Time for new router

If you want to stay with ASUS, some good upgrade options to WiFi 6 include ASUS RT-AX86U Pro (if available in your region, otherwise just AX86U), or ASUS RT-AX58U (RT-AX3000) for a lower cost option. For WiFi 7: If you don't need the 6ghz band of WiFi 7 then ASUS RT-BE58U is a good entry level route

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

KUB Fiber

I just switched to KUB! I bought my own router from best buy. I personally prefer ASUS, and I went with the RT-BE82U. Seemed like a good balance of cost and the features I needed. So far kub has been working well.

Router for Basic Use-not tech savvy

I just bought the ASUS RT-BE82U router yesterday and installed it this morning. Very straight forward installation. Reasonable price at $139.

PS5 and ASUS BE82U issue

It might not be the router itself. The PlayStation 5 speed test can be pretty inconsistent and often depends on Sony’s servers. Even with a fast router like the ASUS RT-BE82U, results can vary a lot. You could try testing the same Ethernet cable and port with a PC to see if you can hit closer to 900

Wifi router

Pretty much any router will work fine for what you have. The Gl.iNet Flint 3 (GL-BE9300) is a good router with 2.5GbE WAN and LAN ports and tri-band WiFi 7 (2.4, 5 & 6GHz WiFi) for around $210. The Asus RT-BE82U also has 2.5GbE WAN and LAN ports, but with dual-band WiFi 7 (no 6GHz) for around $170.
