It's fast, but who is watching???
Much faster than the one we replaced, but I'm now concerned this one will show up on the FCC list of banned routers.

Quality and great software balance
You want to plug it in and run, fine. Or you want to tweak settings, go for it with a great UI that supports a rich set of options. ASUS stands behind it with support and timely firmware updates -- and has solid security protection built in.

The Wired Powerhouse for the WiFi 7 Era
The ASUS RT-BE88U is an absolute unit, especially if your house is cluttered with smart gear. I’ve got dozens of bulbs, plugs, and cameras that used to clog up my old network, but the Smart Home Master feature (now called "Network" in the app) let me dump them all onto a dedicated IoT SSID. It keeps those slower devices isolated so they don't tank my WiFi 7 speeds. Betw...

Easy setup
Setup was easy. This router is used as a node in an AI Mesh system and even that was completely "hands free".

Asus Mesh Success in Multi Level Home
Three Asus mesh routers solved challenging weak spots in our home network. The RT-BE88U served as the Mesh hub. The ability to bind devices to particular mesh nodes made the system work well and stay working repeatedly. This was crucial to achieve the performance needed for some devices in the network.

My 3rd Asus router :)
Love the new Wifi 7 router (replaced a RT-AX88U Pro that replaced a RT-AC3100) and the AsusWRT Merlin support.

RT-BE88U
I’ve been using ASUS routers since 2017 and have never had any issues. I especially like the 88U series for its eight Ethernet ports, along with its excellent coverage and performance.

A powerful router with great security
The setup of my Asus 88u router went well with the only hiccup was finding the NAT passthrough for my server. There are two separate places in the menu; one for ip6 and the other for ip4.

Experience with RT-BE88U
Straighforward to configure and performance is very good. Much more obscure to setup multiple SSID's than older units. Configuring the "table" for the MAC to IP assignments used by the DHCP server is nearly impossible for more than a handful of mappings.

RT-BE88U - It just works!
Great router. User friendly UI with a deep feature set. Highly configurable to get things working the the way you need it. 10x the features at half the price of the top of the line Nighthawk.

Powerful Router
I’ve been using the 88U for 3 weeks and waited to review the router. I am not that tech savvy. The router was easy to set up and have no problems to date. I think the router app is very useful. This is a powerful router. It covers my 3000sq ft home with no problem. The house is single story. There were several clients that were had random drop offs with my old router. I...
