Have you been having frequent Spectrum internet outages?
I would suggest either the Asus RT-BE96U if you can get by with a single device (if the modem will be located in the middle of your home and you are at about no larger than 2,000 square feet), or the Netgear Orbi 770 series if your space is larger and/or the modem is in the far corner of the home wh

Can anyone recommend a good tri band router with good WiFi range?
I'd recommend the Asus RT-BE96U. Some good sales have been going on. I have it, and it really does perform well, and provides great wireless coverage. It's tri-band, plus wifi-7. Been very stable as well. HIghly recommended.

Help choosing a router for upgraded internet
Couple of Asus router recommendations. There's the GT-AX6000 or RT-AX88U Pro, two different wifi 6 routers that have virtually the same electronics inside. If you want to stick your toe in the water with wifi 7, there's the RT-BE96U,, which has been on sale a lot. Both of these routers have given me

Looking to upgrade my router, what is best? You are all "Uniquity" but is it truly the best for my needs?
Have been using an Asus RT-BE96U for some time, and it has worked really well for us. Great performance, and very reliable. Nice set of configuration and monitoring tools as well when you need that. Gives us wireless coverage everywhere in our house. Has a couple of 10Gbps ports, one for the LAN and

Router Recommendation
We have a two-node Asus ZenWiFi BT10 mesh here that provides whole-house wifi coverage. Our house is more sheetrock walls, with wood siding, no brick. Anyways, the BT10 mesh works really well for us with a comparable size house, and I'd highly recommend it. I think that Amazon might be having some s

ubiquiti udr7 + U7 Pro or Asus BE-96U router for 3000 sq ft home?
thank you for that thoughtful response! and promise I won't write nearly as much. I was very very conflicted (and still am about my choices b/c let's be honest they're both great products with pros and cons. To simplify the reading: The cost of the ubiquiti with the U7 Pro AP is actually slightly ch

Asus BE-96U or 98Pro?
TS-453D with 4TB hdds in raid 5 config. Currently setup with a single 2.5GBE connection. The the 98Pro is delusionally expensive and I have zero interest in the gaming aspect of it. I actually did a bunch of testing on the BE96U (currently using) that cost $600 CAD vs a Ubiqiti UDR7 with a U7 Pro AP

Trouble finding a router for a new house
The Asus ZenWiFi BT10 mesh is working really well for us with gigabit fiber. I'll also bet that the Asus GT-AX6000 and the RT-BE96U single routers would work well at your place. The advantage of the mesh is that I get high speed everywhere. With the single router approach, the speed drops off some g
