I utilised these to expand the wifi to the house extension and I do not have a problem with them. Both floors on the additional house have good internet coverage because of this system.

This is the most mixed review I have ever had to write. After months of absolutely nightmarish service from ASUS, I have had it running for a couple of weeks, and I'm very impressed.Let's start with the bad:I purchased one of these routers and after two hours on the phone with tech support they concluded it was defective and should be replaced. So I called Amazon and they said they couldn't send a replacement. I would have to return it and purchase another one, so I did. A MONTH LATER, I still had not received my refund, so I had to call Amazon again. They said that for this particular item, I had to wait until the refund had been processed. Not sure how long it takes to process a return to an Amazon store, but I'm pretty sure it's not a month. I digress...After finally getting a refund for the original, I purchased a new one. Same story with that one - the web interface kept saying "no internet connection", which is clearly wrong, since it said I had two devices connected to it. So after two more hours on the phone they concluded I had yet another defective one. ASUS said, they would send me an "advance" replacement, along with a return shipping label for the other one. So now I'm thinking, "OK, that's pretty good service". Boy was I wrong...Over a week later I still hadn't gotten a tracking number, and I keep getting emails and voicemails saying "if there's anything else we can do, please call us". So I responded and asked "where's my replacement?" No response. They just left a bunch of voicemails extremely early in the morning. So I finally called them back. Now the story has changed - "you have two choices, you can either (a) send us back the old one and wait for it to be processed, after which we will send you a replacement, or (b) you can give us your credit card number, we will put a hold on it, and send you a USED one. We will remove the hold once we received the old one".Now the good:I am not one to give up easily, and this is the ONLY router on the market that has both decent range AND radio control (the ability to turn wi-fi off while still being able to use a hardwired ethernet connection), so I was determined to make it work. I tried a million different setup methods, and nothing fixed the issue. So as a last ditch effort, I purchased a new modem. After setting up the router and rebooting the new modem, it suddenly worked. I was using an Arris one before, and I switched to a Hitron.Speed over ethernet is pretty good 925/56, but where this thing excels is wireless - 768mbps on my iPhone in the same room as the hub, and 388 on the floor above with only two out of three nodes running. That is insanely fast compared to my previous Eero router which got less than half that.Best part is the ability to cut off the wifi on a schedule. I absolutely loathe wifi not just for speed reasons, but for health and privacy reasons as well. With this, I can work on my computer during the day via ethernet, while my girlfriend watches TikTok videos or whatever she does on her phone. I can set a timer so that wi-fi turns off at night so we are not bombarded with radiation while we sleep, but I can still watch shows on my AppleTV. Win, win, win.I wonder how many of these devices are returned by people who can't figure out how to set them because customer service is completely useless. I know for a fact that there is no way people like my parents or siblings could have gotten it to work. Glad I didn't give up on this one.

Got the mesh system on May 3rd, finished installing at 10pm. Installation was pretty easy. They have a phone app you can use but I prefer the web interface due to IP address lock downs and port forwarding I do on my home network. Just easier on a bigger screen. After it was installed and all my devices connected up the system ran great for 1 day. At 10pm on May 4th both satellite mesh units started blinking blue quickly and I lost all connection to the internet. I waited for 10 minutes thinking they were rebooting for some reason. Eventually I had to unplug and replug the main router unit. After doing that the mesh satellite units reconnected. Not a great start.If this continues to happen this system will get packed back up and sent back within the 30 day period. I had a Netgear router before this one and I had to reboot that about 4 times in the 6 years I had it. Having to reboot this Asus system after 1 day is not a good sign. What's even worse is when I go to Asus' website to see if I can find any info on why this happened their support site won't load. I just get a spinning circle.I'm going to give it a couple more weeks. If I continue to have this issue I'll leave the rating as is and send the unit back to Amazon. If I don't continue to have this problem for 6 months then I will come back and update this review. I'm not going to give a good review when the first impression is horrible. They now have to work extra hard to earn a decent rating.I've had other Asus products in the past and they've all been fine. We'll see how this goes.

Got this overnighter with prime. Using these as a access point to a previously set up network. Had a head dead zone upstairs in my house on the opposite side of the house from where the previous router and modem are installed. My PS5 could never connect to that network due to the awful quality of Sony's choice of wifi antenna and wifi chipset. Using one of the nodes of this setup as a network adapter for the PS5 and it is the best connection and speed I've ever had. Installation of these took less than a half our. Used Asus router app on my phone and it was super simple to use. No issues. Great product. Will update if I run into any hiccups or issues in the future.

I had to return this router because my ISP doesn't allow other equipment, which I had not known.However, I did set it up before I found out.The process was extremely simple and fast- about 15 minutes. Plug them in, connect one to the cable, let them communicate. Then take two nodes and put them where needed. They reconnect and you're about done.Instructions are clearI had it working as a wifi system with perfect signals, with all my devices connected in 15 minutes.The router could not connect to internet, not its fault.I do recommend the product.
