No issues
+ Great product, set up in 5mins, would recommend to family and friends. + Came with ethernet cable, which was a relief otherwise I would have had to buy a new one/attempt to use my 15yo one, so nice that it was usable and perfect right out of the box. + Fits in IKEA Kallax shelf. - But otherwise quite wide, and tall, can't slot it in somewhere. The cables are inserted perpendicularly 90 degs to the device, so it needs some space behind it, and also means I can't put it sideways into a shelf or something. + Came with adapters for other countries, which seemed handy/nice/they can mail the same package to many different continents? (I am Australia)

    I've used Asus products for several years & always very pleased with them. I bought this router after much research & review to get a top quality & reliable product to improve my Internet experience at home and take advantage of a FTTP upgrade from my Telco. This new Asus router was very easy & intuitive to set up & helped by very good 'user guide' from Asus. I installed it a week ago & have been happily impressed so far with its performance & reliability. It has many features to allow customisation from its very user friendly interface, so Ive been confident to make changes to the configuration to suit my home needs with over 60 online devices. No longer do I have wi fi dropouts & router crashes as with my previous Telco supplied router. Even more impressive is the iPhone app that enables me top monitor & manage the router & home network when away from home. This is an another very good Asus product that does everything it promised, so I'm very pleased with it. Would very much recommend this product.

    Purchased and returned unopened .. I was able to find/purchase a "newer" model for price of AX86u Pro+shipping+$20 AUD (after exchange rate to Amazon US).

    This was to upgrade my existing home network from an AC-68u and give me the ability to have multiple "segregated" wifi networks (available on Pro models). In expectation of it's delivery, I went onto the net and discovered there was a new(er) model, the AX88u Pro and brought me to Amazon US where I found the (newer) model available for $20 AUD more than my purchase of the AX86u Pro.

    Albeit a small software issue with the Asus firmware of my model (specific to how I use it), Asus makes it setup very easy as it walks you through the process to bring a new router online. The main additional of these Pro models is to have multiple wifi networks to segregate IoT devices, streaming devices or even "guest" networks (instead of just one "guest" network on non-Pro models).

    To cover my "whole" house .. I still needed to use AiMesh, but it was great that I am able to utilize my previous router as a node to replace an even older router being used as a node.

    Style Name: WIFI 6 | AX4200Verified Purchase
    At first, it seemed good, stable, and functional. However, after a few days, my TV started to lose its Wi-Fi connection after just a few minutes of use. I initially thought that my 6-year-old Panasonic TV was unable to keep up with modern standards. As a solution, I purchased an ‘Ethernet over power' box and connected my TV to it. But yesterday, my new mobile phone lost its internet connection. Reconnecting helped. Today, my work laptop couldn’t connect to Wi-Fi, and my child’s PC also couldn’t connect. This is very frustrating. The device is not ready for production. It’s not reliable. I would not recommend buying it.

    Added:
    After using it for more than a month, I still regret buying it. It continually blocks Wi-Fi devices from accessing the internet. The devices report ‘connected but no internet’. Reconnecting helps. The router also blocks wired connections. The latest firmware update did not help. I would return it, but I discarded the box after the router worked normally for the first two days.

    5.0 out of 5 stars ASUS RT-AX86U looks promising
    Reviewed in India on 29 December 2024
    Style Name: WIFI 6 | AX5700Verified Purchase
    Its been a week since I got the RT-AX86U Pro.

    I have an ACT 400Mbps connection that terminates in the middle of my 2000 sqft odd house. I get the speed across the house. I did multiple firmware updates to bring it to the latest version.

    Overall, it looks good, though it is a bit expensive. The ASUS interface is feature-rich on both the web and app. Installation wasn't complicated either.

    It has a small base footprint, which helped in my case because the router location on the top of the shell isn't very deep.
