Asus provides the least exciting router in the field. But that is not a disadvantage. Asus offers an up-to-date router at a good price. However, others are more user-friendly.

Overall, the router is very well equipped, but in order to get the full power out of the device, some settings are necessary. This is sometimes very cumbersome and fiddly. However, the data rates that the model can achieve are very good, and the variety of connections is also very important here. In terms of price, the whole thing is on a decent level.
