Review: Setup was a bit rough. Initially I was unable to connect to the primary over HTTP. After resetting the unit, I was able to connect, but after following the instructions the secondary was trying to use wireless to connect to the primary, even though both were connected to the LAN via ethernet. The next day, I found the buried menu page with the switch to use ethernet backhaul. That should be the default behaviour if it's plugged in to ethernet and can reach the primary via the ethernet port. It should at the very least be easier to find. Maybe put it on the same menu page as "backhaul priority". But it's working pretty well now. Legacy (IoT) mode does not support all older devices. Specifically, Slim Devices Squeezebox 2/3 does not work at all. Squeezebox Radio needs the "community firmware" upgrade in order to connect reliably. It doesn't seem like there should be an issue, since both devices support WPA2 security, and the legacy mode of the ZenWiFi is supposed to support WPA2/WPA3. Review: It's a low-cost WiFi7 router with the familiar Asus management tools. Works great and I don't have any issues with it. The one thing keeping it from a 5-star review is the low number of Ethernet ports, but you get what you pay for and a cheap network switch easily fixed that issue. ## Features - Dual-band WiFi 7 speeds up to 5000 Mbps with MLO and 4K-QAM - ASUS AiMesh technology boosts coverage up to 5000 sq.ft.

Bought this extra unit to place at the other end of the house to get faster speeds in the computer room, which is at the other side of the house. Mesh set up was easy, just plug in, use the app on your phone or iPad to find the units and the app does the rest. Use the optimize function in the app and it will set the units to their optimum settings. One suggestion, the wireless ID will only show two available names…the one you assign a name to and the same name with ioT attached…use the ioT one, it’s faster if you have WiFi 7 units. If you only have WiFi 5 or 6 units to connect, experiment and use Speed Test to see which one is faster. For me, on WiFi 7 computers, the *****ioT name was faster by a mile. I am getting over 1Gbps on units close to the router, i.e. same or next room location, and 500Mbps on my two computers across the house. This doubled my previous speeds. Your speed will vary based on your internet provider speeds and the distance of your attached units from the mesh nodes. ## Frequently Bought Together - ASUS ZenWiFi BD5 Dual-Band WiFi 7 Mesh, 5000 Mbps, 5000 sq.ft (2pk), Dual 2.5G Ports, Security and Parental Controls Included, Smart Home Master SSIDs - ARRIS (S34) - Cable Modem - Fast DOCSIS 3.1 Multi-Gigabit WiFi, for Comcast Xfinity, Cox, Spectrum & More, 2.5 Gbps Max Internet Speeds, Next-Generation Upload Optimized, 2 Year Warranty - ASUS ZenWiFi XT9 AX7800 Tri-Band WiFi6 Mesh WiFiSystem (2Pack), 802.11ax, up to 5700 sq ft & 6+ Rooms, AiMesh, Lifetime Free Internet Security, Parental Controls, 2.5G WAN Port, UNII 4, White --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/708750629-asus-zenwifi-bd5-dual-band-wifi-7-mesh-5000-mbps](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/708750629-asus-zenwifi-bd5-dual-band-wifi-7-mesh-5000-mbps) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
