Both routers you named can’t get you the 10G speed you’re looking for. The rt-be92u has only one 10G port and the others are 2.5G ports, so the best you can expect would be 2.5Gb most likely through wired connection. The rt-ax86u has only one 2.5G port and the rest are 1G ports, so you’re bottleneck

Just went from TpLink XE75 network to an ASUS RT-BE92U network for less than 30 days and it was genuinely unbearable. Back on a BE68 mesh network as of today and things are again great. I’m not a big “Chinese company” guy myself, let alone for something that controls my internet, but TpLink has alwa

I started trying wifi 7 routers a year ago, was mostly a bust not even factoring in MLO nonsense. Tried a Asus RT-BE92U, Netgear RS600, TP-LINK BE800. https://www.reddit.com/r/ASUS/comments/1hpejh8/warning_for_rtbe92u/ I will add my TP-LINK BE800 that I kept because I was outside the return period, di

Yes, this is a confirmed Broadcom WiFi 7 driver bug. You're not crazy, and it's not your configuration. The WLC_SCB_DEAUTHORIZE error (-30) is a known kernel-level memory management failure in the Station Control Block (SCB) that affects WiFi 7 (802.11be) routers with Multi-Link Operation (MLO) . What

TLDR: I'd suggest the RT-BE82U for dual-band WiFi 7 (2.4ghz/5ghz) as it has 2.5gb WAN/LAN ports. I'd suggest the TUF-BE9400 for tri-band WiFi 7 (also has 2.5gb WAN/LAN ports) and also has 6ghz band if that is important. Details: Good options listed above (ASUS BE3600 or TP-Link BE6500) but I don't l

I've been reading about the RT-BE92U, and from what I've read I don't think that I'd go that way. Too many firmware problems. Yes, I'd have to say that the GT-AX6000 or RT-AX88U is a better option than the RT-BE92U. If I was going to go for wifi 7, I'd go for the RT-BE96U, as I said before. Must be

Really? How come? I bought a new ASUS RT-BE92U WI7 router and my steamdeck won’t even see the 6G band unless I’m right next to it. I’ll sit like 10 feet away from it and nothing. Any recs on a better router?

RT-BE92U is the reason why I joined the Ubiquity gang. It had generally unstable WiFi7 and buggy firmware. One day I woke up to the open network (I mean not password protected) that would've exposed my LAN to all my neighbours if the signal strength could penetrate even a thin wall. Save yourself so

I don't recommend the RT-BE92U. Please read the reviews on Amazon and Reddit! This router is a steaming pile of 💩 (i.e., crap). The specs look great, but it doesn't seem to have enough RAM (only 1GB) and the CPU cores get overwhelmed (so router slows down, connections drop, etc.). I really wish this

If the RT-BE88U is within your budget and you aren't concerned by its price, you could certainly buy it and use it. Especially in a wired backhaul AiMesh setup with the RT-AX92U units, where the AX92U units serve essentially as wired access points. In that respect it doesn't matter too much that the
