Review: Beast of a router! Great Feature Set! Fast Performance! - The GT-AXE16000 is a great router in my experience with it thus far. The coverage of the Wi-Fi is good in the lower spec bands, 2.4G / 5G / but is very short on devices accessing the 6G band. The performance of the unit itself is excellent and using the Ai-Mesh feature to connect to my other ASUS router, it adequately provides whole home coverage. The 2.5G WAN port is great connected to the 2G fiber service I have and can consume all of it. The addition of twin 10G LAN ports plus the standard quad 1G ports has helped me expand my backbone to 10G throughout the home. It is a great companion to my GT-AX6000 router acting as an Ai-Mesh AP partner to it. It has a great software interface providing all the necessary elements for enhanced gaming and protection for your network. It is not however a small device so have adequate space to place it where you will use it. Like other ASUS network products I have purchased it does a great job of making sure it is running the latest firmware for itself and its Ai-Mesh partner. In addition to the good performance, the device has a failover feature to an alternate ISP source if one is available to keep your network up and running when the primary ISP stops responding. This has happened to me recently and the router did the quick switch to the backup WAN and nothing missed a beat. Super feature! Thus far a rock solid addition to my home network. I could not rate the Tech Support part of the review as I have had no issues with the unit thus far. Review: Great Product But Paired better with insurance. - When it was new in 2022 it packed a punch it was fast, Easy to function, strong signal quality, Beautifully designed worked with new and older devices so didn’t have any compatibility issues, has options to adjust bands to work with older wireless devices, But after 2 years of usage after that first year that final year it just started to become a bit unstable needed to be restarted more frequently was getting a bit warmer then to the point when the device just ultimately failed, It was and is a great router but definitely was good I chose the 3 yrs protection plan when purchasing Asurion they covered me and reimbursed the full cost and I went back with Asus brand Rog-Be98 PRO , But 2 years is rather normal for one to stop working under high usage , I would recommend this product For a low priced good gaming router , I loved every minute of how this big guy performed everyday 24/7 2 years and 2 months managed to hold 25+ devices continuously alot of download and upload continuously , download speeds my internet provider of 2 gigs 50 up I would see 2125.16 Down and 52.60 Up Continuously on this device even till the very end it performed spectacular I would recommend for a home that is a light to moderate gamer but if you have multiple gaming devices running at once it will last about the same time but I think it could last longer for a moderate gamer I wouldn’t say this is a high end gaming router but will get the job done ## Features -

Amazon direct (non-3rd party) is selling it for $700. The current seller listed by default - IPC-Store only has a satisfaction rating of 83% over the last 90 days. Also check google shopping, eBay, and the Asus website – same prices there too. google shopping did show one seller - Newegg has it for 25 bux cheaper. Also helps to have a price search engine app and the leading coupon apps too. What was the previous price, or the new price, that you failed to list? It can change daily. Also specify the exact model number. There are two listed on the GT-AXE16000 and 11000. I was going by the 16000. **Q: Are the fans loud?** A: No fan, but I put the router on a laptop cooling pad to increase airflow and decrease the temperature. You can plug most pads into the router with the supplied usb power cable. I used a cooling pad with the ax89x which has a fan and the temperature never got above a 100 degrees. **Q: Can two asus rt-ax92u be connected to the gt-ax11000 as aimesh nodes using wireless backhaul? can one of the two 5ghz channels be set as the backhaul** A: Yes they can. I currently use three RT-AX92U's connected as MESH nodes to the GT-AXE11000. The Mesh nodes can be connected via wired connection with fail over to wireless or just dedicate Wireless 5G channel. They work well, allowing devices to roam around switching connection automatically for best signal. **Q: when can i buy this, come on?!?!?!** A: Inventory replenishes on a weekly basis, please check in periodically. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beast of a router!
