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...

Summarizing the results of the measured speeds tests, we can see that on the 2,4GHz frequency, the Fritz!Box 3490 is the fastest router showing speeds of 128 Mbit/s on average. Second is the DIR-879 by D-Link (average of 125 Mbit/s) and the Linksys EA7500...

PricingWhen we line up the RT-AC68U against all of the other top performing wireless routers, such as the EA6900 from Linksys that I looked at not too long ago, it is easy to understand why the price tag that this router has is a bit higher than everythin...
Overall, the best routers are the ASUS RT-AC68U, Apple AirPort Extreme, D-Link DIR-868L, and the Netgear R7000 Nighthawk, with Apple's offering being the fastest in almost every test. You cannot ignore this router when strictly focusing on performance, ...
