Xfinity doesn't charge for modem rentals anymore, so it doesn't save money to switch to one's own. Just place the Xfinity provided modem in bridge mode and use one's own router that does allow DNS editing, it's how I do it. I have an Asus RT-BE92U for mine, as it has a 10gig WAN port meaning I can s

I recently upgraded from a RT-AX86U (basically the WiFi 6 version of your router), and I purchased 2 x RT-BE92U, one as a router and one configured as a separate access point. The primary reason for the upgrade was to get access to the 6GHz band for a Quest 3 VR headset. Playing PCVR games via WiFi

I have the RT-BE92U and have been really happy with it, besides some issues with early firmware. After the firmware issues were resolved it has been rock solid. Edit to add a few more details. If you can centrally locate the router it may be able provide decent coverage for the entire home. I have a

I have had a great time with 2 of these https://www.asus.com/uk/networking-iot-servers/wifi-7/all-series/asus-rt-be92u/ Asus rt-be92u . It’s been really stable, great WiFi and after I went wrt based firmware like a decade ago it’s hard to go back to something more restrictive. I use this on gigabit

I bought an Asus RT-BE92U recently to replace (sort of) a pair of Asus ZenWiFi XT8 in an AiMesh. It's WiFi 7, 4 x 2.5Gbps LAN ports and 1 x 10Gbps WAN, Tri-band WiFi (very important for AiMesh imho) It's now my router and master node for my AiMesh, with the old XT8s now being (actually quite good) n

If you are happy with your single all-in-one, there's no need to go with a mesh system. There's nothing "better" about it, it's usefulness is extending wifi coverage when you can't or won't wire an access point. Here are some suggestions within your budget.

I'll most likely be downvoted, since Ubiquiti ,looks to be big here, but of these I'd go with the RT-BE96U tri-band. We have one of these and it works really well. Great wireless speed and coverage, and quite stable. Highly recommended. The RT-BE88U gets good reviews, but only two bands, which makes

I've got Asus AiMesh (it was called that before the recent AI boom) and it works very well. I have an RT-BE92U as my main router and then two ZenWifi XT8's and an RP-AX56. I had the ZenWifi's before buying the BE92U in AiMesh and upgraded to the BE92U and kept the old routers to expand my coverage.

I currently have the Asus RT-BE92U and I get great speeds always a bit more than the 1gb because of the 2.5 port that I have on both of my PCs. https://www.speedtest.net/my-result/17302426059
