  • ASUS AiMesh offers a very interesting alternative for mesh systems such as its own Lyra but based on standard routers. We tested the special AiMesh firmware with two ASUS RT-AC86U routers. The results are very promising: the performance is far better than...

  • Are you looking for an 802.11ac router? Then you'll be able to choose from a plethora of routers, since pretty much all 802.11ac models that have been released since 2012, are still readily available. This does imply that there hasn't been a lot of chan...

  • Excellent performance, Feature rich, Powerful software
  • Expensive, Complicated back-end can be intimidating, Doesn't have the same range as other models
  • One of the best routers for gaming.Beyond jumping to a wireless mesh system, which brings problems of its own, this router offers some of the best performance you can ask for. It's a great choice for anyone looking to squeeze out all the potential from th...

  • Extremely easy to use, packed with features,
  • Average range, throughput
  • All in all, the Asus RT-AC88U is the top performing router that we have tested, earning the title of Best Overall Router and an Editors' Choice award. While this model didn't take home the top spot in our throughput or range tests, it should provide more...

  • Fast data transfer rates, Good range, Feature packed, Easy to set up and use,
  • Relatively pricey, Could be overkill if you have a slower Internet connection
  • On balance, the Asus RT-AC88U is near impossible to beat. It's blazingly fast, relatively easy to set up and use, and about as feature-laden a router as you are likely to find. In addition to terrific wireless performance, its support for wired networkin...

  • The Asus RT-AC88U and the Asus RT-AC3200 have a lot of things in common, both have a great user interface, both have powerful hardware and interesting designs (although the RT-AC88U is better looking, but this matters little when we talk about routers), s...

  • If you're a little confused by the sheer choice of ASUS routers available across the AC3100/AC3200 class, then you can't be blamed. The company has pushed out a number of similar looking models which include slight variations in features – which one is ri...

  • Great WiFi Performance, Great Coverage, Attractive Design, Great Interface, Dual-WAN
  • Expensive, Lack Of Clients To Fully Use the Router's Capabilities
  • Overall, the ASUS RT-AC88U is one of the most exquisite routers from ASUS, it has a premium, aggressive design, the performance is one of the best on the market right now, and the interface is well made and very user-friendly, packed with lots of features...
