ASUS RT-AX3000 Ultra-Fast Dual Band Gigabit Wireless Router - Next Gen WiFi 6, Adaptive QoS, and AiProtection by Trend Micro | 1x WAN, 4X 1G LAN, 1x USB 3.0 - AiMesh Compatible

Reliable WiFi 6 Upgrade with Great Features The ASUS RT-AX3000 has been a rock-solid upgrade to my home network. Setup was straightforward with the ASUS app—within minutes I had it configured and running. The WiFi 6 support really makes a difference; multiple devices can stream, game, and video call without slowdowns. Coverage is excellent across a two-story house, and even the backyard gets a stable signal. I appreciate the thoughtful extras ASUS built in. Adaptive QoS lets me prioritize gaming or streaming when needed, and the parental controls are simple yet effective. AiProtection, powered by Trend Micro, adds an extra layer of peace of mind against security threats. I also like that it’s AiMesh compatible, which means I can expand coverage in the future without replacing the router. One small note: while performance is excellent, the unit does run a little warm. Not a big issue, but something to keep in mind if you place it in a tight space. Bottom line: A fast, reliable, and feature-packed router that’s a great choice if you’re ready to move into WiFi 6 and want excellent coverage with built-in security and expandability.

This thing if freaking AWESOME !! More than adequate for my needs, and I think there is some actual alien technology at work herein !!! I have Xfinity Broadband @ 400, actual getting about 505 down at this Router, setup was flawless, must reboot Router several times for some of the settings I chose, not a problem with it's 4-core processor - reboots are fast. EXTREMELY versatile and configurable with MANY attributes that were not available on other Routers I examined. As far as it's power and capability it rivals the "Sonicwall 350" we have at work BUT provides FULL BANDWIDTH and THROUGHPUT to each port even with all the Security features active... the Sonicwall 350 only allows about 350Mb throughput but with this Router I am getting in excess of 1200Mb connection rates to my laptop and Speedtests show nearly the same in Browser as the Routers built-in Speedtest !!! EVERYONES biggest complaint about their routers and connection is they "don't get download speeds in there browser that they are paying for", but most people don't understand "overhead" in bandwidth issues and don't buy an appropriate speed router to be able to provide said speed. For me and my scenario - THIS Router is the MONSTER and beats several others I have tried that all said they could do something but ended up NOT being able... I must add that I tried a "Refurbished" version of this Router and it was madness trying to get it setup and it caused many problems with my Servers and remote connections... the vendor, Azusa-IoT, was gracious and very communicative regarding return and refund, their Customer Service efforts were fast and refund happened within an hour of them receiving the Refurb unit at their location. So there is DEFINITELY something wrong with that REFURB unit. The difference in cost was only about $40. The difference in frustration level and blood pressure increase was PRICELESS !!!

I bought 2 of these and wired one directly to my main router and one into my gaming pc and I've been using it for a while. I've been really impressed with the reliability and speeds of this router. For the price, I bought them thinking I was going to use them for a while and start having issues and replace it with something more substantial but atp I am thoroughly impressed. My download speeds went form around 230mbs~ to 450mbs+.

First the pros I get coverage for the whole house, plus outside of the house too in the alley and the front porch. This was a easy setup using the Ai Mesh software with other ASUS Ai mesh compatible routers. Signal quality 5/5 Stability 2/5 Edit *5/5* May/5/2023 Ease of use 5/5 Range of signal N/A (Cable modem only) Overall product 5/5 Please check the updated Review below, it has been updated to reflect corrections to my original, which had some errors. Once in awhile, I got a red disconnect light, usually after 2-4 weeks of use. I have to either power cycle the cable modem, the router or both before getting the connection back. This was 💯 due to an physical connection issue, caused by a leaking signal from the ISP side of things. Once I started to reboot regularly as a temporary fix, the issue resolved itself in the short-term, until a technician came and replaced all the incoming connection wiring. For those who want to know, I am using the MOTOROLA Model MB8611 DOCSIS 3.1 (compatible with 32x8 DOCSIS 3.0). Finally it has a 2.5Gbps ethernet port. *EDIT* Changed stability to 5/5. The issue was signal leakage and noise, causing high ping, jitter, latency and dropped connections. Despite all of that, this cable modem managed to get me a internet connection, whereas a cheaper purchase and isp provided modem struggled. I recommend this even more now! It powered through broken connections and still provided internet service.

PROS: Fast, Thrifty Price, Easy fast reboot, Logs for both network wired and wireless connections. Helped me identify why my paperwhite 7th gen kindle was loosing battery so fast. WiFi and wired connections are super fast. AI to help with router management is nice. Really like that interface to router is not a pay for subscription like some other router companies. CONS: Could have a smidge stronger signal, but both 5GHZ and 2.4GHZ work fine in my house. Will not take as long passwords as my bricked nighthawk did, also have to use the same password for both wireless channels. Yes I'd buy this again and recommend to friend. Especially since it has dropped $20 since I purchased it only a few months ago BDV UPDATE: 5/4/2025 I'm still liking this router. My only complaint so far is that the router does not clearly identify attacks against it. There are days that it is lagging and a reset fixes the problem, I don't blame the router but my poor internet provider that offers zero protection from router attacks. That said today I finally found the way to set my router up to reboot daily, this should improve my performance as I won't have to remember to do so daily. It would be nice if there was a PDF available with all the configurations explained for this router as there ar plenty. It isn't like love this router. True test will be this summer as Heat and Routers do not mix well. Time will tell.

Asus routers tend to be pretty good, not loaded with too much junk. I bought this to replace my old Netgear R7000 that was dying (one LAN port after another was failing). I ran DD-WRT (Merlin) firmware on it but I many not do that with this Asus router. My last 2 Asus routers were great but I gave them away as others needed one. I kind of regret that. They are still alive and working well. I have not performed performance tests as most never need this info and I have junk service for now. Asus always does a good job and any of my gripes would be true for most other vendor devices. My initial and minor gripes so far: No basic/manual mode when setting it up - they lock you into the wizard mode and WAN setup (though someone may just want to use the device as a WAP, not a router). The router's forced redirect to router.asus.com instead of staying in the session at the LAN IP. This means adding LastPass (etc.) type password entry could be a [low] risk in exposing your router's user/password to actual asus.com if visiting there. The DHCP reservation entry does not allow a comment or the setting of a host/device name (to be entered into the DNS server, aka local DNS) Logs out too quickly - should be a setting. UPnP is turned on by default - this is evil. Useful info Default user/password: requires built-in web page configuration, no immediate login from what I can see. Default IP: 192.168.50.1 (you'll need this for the first login, be on that network or be set for DHCP). First DHCP given out: 192.168.50.140 Default Firmware: 3.0.0.4.384 (I updated to .386) Last pass doesn't place nice with it. The login form's HTML input control names for automation with LastPass, etc.: login_passwd login_username

Worked great for the first 6 weeks and then it died. I bought it as part of a black friday deal, I don't know maybe it was a re-furbished piece of garbage. I don't believe in re-furbished items it means it was defective to begin with and I am paying for something to be new and work. I set it up easy in March, nice app, easy interface, pretty much plug-n-play, good strong wifi signal no issues with setup. After a month, intermittent internet connection issues and slowness. At 6 weeks nothing worked. Performed troubleshooting with ISP to confirm it was not them. They saw a strong stable signal going to the router but the router was not pushing the signal to the other devices. Ironically the wifi worked but the two PC's hardlined into it had no internet until I bypassed the router. Worked with Asus support who just had me reset the device a couple of times and then said I needed to RMA it so they can troubleshoot. I asked for a new one and of course was denied because it's outside the 60 day window meanwhile it's brand new and doesn't work. So they plan on sending me back a re-furbished item, which I bought new but was probably already re-furbished which is why I do not buy re-furbished garbage. It either works or it was not manufactured correctly. Period. This replaced a previous Asus router I had already owned for 6 years without a hiccup. Never an issue it just got old and slower and I needed an upgrade. Big mistake. I ended up going with a Netgear Nighthawk for now and if Asus sends me back this one, it will be in the closet as a backup unit. I will not say not to buy it because my previous Asus product worked great for a long time, it might have been this one item but I read other reviews more recently this has happened several times. Works and then just stops. So buyer beware you might get a good one or lemon.

Weaker signal comparing to Asus AC86U

Funciona perfectamente

The product was as expected...easy to install..very fast network. I can block and control each device using my Data

Cumple con su propósito y con lo que promete al 100%. La relación/calidad precio esta muy bien! Fácil de usar, fácil de instalar, la estabilidad que tiene es muy buena! El equipo viene bien empaquetado y sellado. No me arrepiento de comprarlo y lo recomiendo 100%

Very poor quality hardly used one time
