COMPARISON

Awards

"The Asus RT-AX88U is the best choice for a higher end router. It features next generation Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) technology, and an impressive eight Gigabit Ethernet ports, which even supports link aggregation. Backing this up is the usual excellent AsusWRT interface, which allows granular control of every imaginable setting. "

"One of the fastest routers we've tested, the Asus ROG Rapture GT-AC5300 offers lots of gamer-friendly features, copious I/O ports, and a slick management console that lets you optimize your network for lag-free gaming."

"The Asus RT-AC86U is a fast AC2900 dual band router that's equipped with the latest networking technology and is loaded with gamer optimization and network protection features."

The ExpertWiFi may look like a conventional mesh Wi-Fi system. But its business-class app provides versatile networking features ideal for many small-to-medium businesses and public venues such as restaurants and hotels.

How ASUS ExpertWiFi is Staying Ahead of the Competition

The Asus RT-AX86U convinces with a very strong price-performance ratio in the test: It belongs to the top field in terms of speed and features.

Routers are one of the essential product that is always with us, whether its at home or office, basically one of the gateway to connect all your devices towards the internet, so that you can surf and work, to an extent, even manage your files or play some game.

打游戏就算你操作怎么牛，一lag就没你什么事了。为了照顾大家的需求，Asus就发布了一款最新的高性能Gaming Router RT-AX86U。

A good option would be a router that has WiFi 6 (wireless-AX) so that newer devices can be supported. Since we needed to get a new one for the office, we decided to look around for one with features that provide better device management

"ASUS RT-AX86U. Router yang bernilai RM1398,Gundam Version pun ada boleh tengok dekat link shopee dibawah,adakah ia akan memberi perbezaan yang ketara?,bagi Sarjan guna dulu dalam beberapa minggu,nanti Jan share apa yang bagus dan berbaloi ke dengan harga yang ditawarkan."

Eliminate WiFi Congestion

The dedicated gaming port on RT-AX86 Series automatically prioritizes any wired device connected to it. No complex configuration is needed, just connect your gaming PC or console to the special LAN port to give you a fast, stable connection that's always at the head of the queue.

Gear Accelerator lets you prioritize devices wirelessly via RT-AX86 Series online control panel. The simple interface lets you prioritize devices to help boost their speed and prevent them fighting over bandwidth with other devices.

Connect your devices to the 5 GHz band and avoid the often-congested 2.4 GHz band, while enjoying up to 5.6X faster WiFi speeds. Also, optional Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) unlocks up to 15 of the least-congested channels on the 5GHz band to give you even more bandwidth for gaming.****

GeForce NOW is NVIDIA's cloud-based gaming service that delivers real-time GeForce-powered gameplay straight from the cloud to all your devices. With GeForce NOW, you can connect to your store accounts and stream your library of games, or play your favorite free-to-play games available on the service. GeForce NOW recommended routers ensure up to 90% of WiFi bandwidth is dedicated to gaming and undergo rigorous testing to deliver the best possible experience and lowest latency for cloud gaming.

Lightning-Fast
2 Gbps Internet

RT-AX86 Series is designed to break down all the barriers that can slow down your gaming. It supports up to a 2 Gbps internet connection, so you can unlock the full potential of high-speed networking for both wired and WiFi connections.

How is internet speed unlocked?

Internet Without Limits

RT-AX86 Series can unlock up to 2 Gbps of internet bandwidth by aggregating two separate 1 Gbps internet services using the WAN port and a 1 Gbps LAN port, doubling the maximum internet connection speed to 2 Gbps! This massive internet bandwidth can then be shared via WiFi 6 or via the 2.5 Gbps wired network port*. For extra versatility, the 2.5 Gbps port* can be used for either WAN or LAN connections.

Remove Network Bottlenecks

Adaptive QoS (Quality of Service) lets you keep your network running smoothly by prioritizing network traffic. You can prioritize applications such as streaming video or web surfing, as well as gaming. It's the perfect ally for delivering low-latency WiFi anywhere in your home.

Whole-Home Gaming

Does your router leave you with WiFi dead spots? RT-AX86 Series supports ASUS AiMesh, a unique mesh-networking technology that creates a whole-home network using multiple ASUS routers. With easy central control and seamless roaming, even non-experts can set it up with any AiMesh-capable routers you own. Say goodbye to WiFi dead zones!

Commercial-grade Security
for Your Home

Home network security is crucial when you have multiple connected devices, and even more so when there are devices without anti-virus capabilities such as IoT devices. RT-AX86 Series includes lifetime free AiProtection Pro, including the latest WPA3 security protocol and advanced Parental Controls. Every device is protected with RT-AX86 Series, and you can keep an eye on everything that's happening on your network via the handy mobile app.
