Good but not great

I have a $100 ASUS with 4 antennas but I wanted BT so I gave it a try. I also have a TP-Link router which is an ax so I wanted to see if it could keep up. If you add all the factors, it gets better; It has BT, a smaller profile with two antennas, and is half the price. Nevertheless, I returned to ASUS. I have gig d/l and get 500-600 Mbps with ASUS and 300-400 with this setup. Solid, but ASUS clearly wins. I don't feel any noticeable difference between ax and ac or any of the other MU-MIMO factors, but that doesn't mean they don't exist. Let's just say I'm okay with doubling the cost, losing BT, having this buzzing thing sticking out the side of my tower, playing around with antennas to see which directions most commonly get nearly 600Mbps through 3 walls and give about 20 feet. If that's the type of person you are, take ASUS. If you are not that person, take this one. It's more flexible and good enough. If good enough is none of your business, then how did I guess? :)

Pros
  • Not cheap but decent
Cons
  • Only available in black
