The only place where the GT-AX6000 really struggled was in the bathroom at the far end of the house, but even then, we’re still talking about a download rate of 13MB/sec – fast enough to convey the full bandwidth of a 100Mbits/sec fibre broadband connection. Gaming private network: A built-in support for a game-oriented VPN network, including WTFast (one free client that makes the whole local network part of the VPN) and Outfox (90-day trial). ASUS RangeBoost Plus is the latest, most powerful version of ASUS' renowned RangeBoost technology, which can significantly improve coverage and Wi-Fi performance compared to other models without RangeBoost. I recently replaced aging Archer AX6000 v1 with ROG AX6000 because I needed the extra multi gig port for NAS. The Insight view gives access to the AiMesh setup, easy Wi-Fi sharing via a QR code and the Security Insight, which is the AiProtection Pro suite.

By the way, the router ran cool in my testing, which was significant considering its processing power and the lack of an internal fan. However, I recommend the web user interface even when you use a mobile device for the setup process. The router support LAN Link Aggregation where you can combine its LAN1 and LAN 2 port to deliver a 2Gbps connection.

In many ways, it’s somewhat like a strip-down version of an add-on firewall, like the Firewalla or the subscription-based Armor from Netgear. From our tests we did see boosts in our furthest location compared to the AX5400 and very little drop in speeds with multiple streams and there are additional features such as the dual 2. sec on the 5GHz band, although it doesn’t support the 6GHz band that’s just coming into use with the latest Wi-Fi 6E standard. At the other end of the scale, the new Asus ROG Rapture GT-AX11000 incorporates the full set of gaming features plus Wi-Fi 6E, which should allow faster wireless connections for compatible devices.

The support for universal setting restoration is a huge optional time saver if you have many settings, such as IP reservation and port-forwarding entries. Triple-Level Game Acceleration – Accelerate game traffic every step of the way from device to game server.Each device shows its IP, how it is connected to the network and even further settings appear when touching the device icon such as bandwidth limiter and the option to block it completely or optimise the connection by setting the device to gaming or streaming, for example. Come to think about it, the GT-AX6000 is a good candidate for the best Wi-Fi 6 router to get while waiting for Wi-Fi 7 to arrive. AIO Chassis as the base of the machine, we are able to provide the ultimate in experiences never before seen in an All In One form factor. It leverages multiple upgraded Broadcom features, including TX Shaper and TDCS, that improve WiFi signal range and overall coverage by up to 38%*.

You can use these to connect and share content from external hard disks, or to connect to a mobile internet service. However, I’ve just spotted the new TUF-AX6000, which seems to have most of the same specs as the GT-AX6000, except for less RAM (512MB v 1GB).I was able to get reliable connections from corners of the house where most other routers failed to deliver. I plan on doing wired backhaul, so the Tri-band shouldn’t be an issue or at least that’s my understanding, but I could be missing something. And if I am right – and as you also wrote in your several articles – soon WIFI7 will arrive, so if womebody consider to have a device with 6E capability then soon this could have been also updated further, or?
