5.0 out of 5 stars MADE MY VIRGIN MEDIA HUB 4 FAST
Where to begin...? This has changed everything for me. My hub 4.0 is running on a 1 gig package from Virgin Media. I was utterly shocked that it could not even transmit half of that via wireless signal. It reached 940 via ethernet however. I had 3 VM technicians out who all told me an average of 300 wirelessly was acceptable. I was gutted. I did plenty of research and now understand that the hub 4 uses WIFI 5 which limits its ability to transmit. I knew this had to be put in modem mode and a proper router (WIFI6) needed to be purchased to transmit such high speeds. That is what I did. I bought this router as it was not only reasonably priced, it offered great specs and was listed as a gaming router so I had an inclination that it would be required to preform well.After getting my router really quickly, the unboxing experience did not let me down one bit. I felt like a kid again. Gigantic box with cool militaryesque font. I wasted no time in ripping open the box faster than a 8-legged horse. The inside was fab. I loved that they gave such simple instructions on a small sheet with different options to get the router installed. They sent me a link to get a guarantee registered which I must do. The router itself is glorious. It looks like something that takes part in Robot Wars with its sleek profile and sharply styled leading edges. I spent so much time turning it over and around admiring and complementing it's design. Once I took the router out, my cat made use of the box. For some reason he loves boxes and this was certainly up his street (paws up Asus - from my cat).I set up the router after putting the dreadful hub into modem mode. When I initially launched the router, I found my speeds shockingly low. Why? Because I had not configured it properly. Here is how I configured my router to give me optimum speeds baring in mind I am using WIFI 5 devices so cannot truly unlock the potential. I knew that my laptop being WIFI5 could get around 800mbps on my network adapter so I figured that would be my benchmark for brilliance.My settings were adapted under the wireless section of the router's backend which is found at router.asus.com. I initialised two separate SSIDs for 2.4ghz and 5ghz (you will be asked at the start so don't worry). I did this because I wanted to keep the 5ghz (the faster connection) obvious and so I could manipulate just that. In the wireless tab on the left of router's backend portal I did the following:- Select 5ghz to modify the 5ghz band- Changed Wireless Mode: to N/AC/AX mixed (I did this because none of my devices will run on AX. If you have any non WIFI 6 devices, you must use my setting. Otherwise if you select AX it will disconnect devices that don't handle WIFI 6. If you do have WIFI6 devices then amazing. You can put AX only. You will literally unleash the maximum speed).- WIFI Agile Multiband: Disabled (multiband enabled will slow you down)- Target Wake Time: Disabled- Channel Bandwidth: Enable 160 MHZ then from the dropdown select 160 MHZ (this will give you the best of the best speed)- Control Channel: AUTO- Protected Management Frames: Disable (if you enable this, it will slow you down)The rest should be left as is. Please do experiment to find what is best for you. If you live in a large house, you may find my settings profile to limit the reach in which case you will likely depend on lower MHZ like 40, or just use 2.4ghz and configure as above on the 2.4 profile in the wireless tab. When you make changes and select 'Apply' it will disconnect you so do not worry about that. Just wait about 2-3 minutes for it to reconnect.If you get any trouble when you fiddle with settings, log back into the 2.4ghz and you can change whatever setting you fiddled with on the 5ghz back to how it was when working. If anyone is using mac and running bootcamp windows, please go to device manager and select your wireless card and 'roll back' the driver. The updated version you are running on makes the card slow.Anyway, enough of the technical. I feel amazing. This router has given me what I pay for: fast internet. I now average 776-810mbps on my laptop which is more or less the theoretical limit. I may not need the full speed that I get for my use, but since I am paying Virgin Media for it, I want to have that running through my house. I do not accept that their hub is acceptable when only outputting 300mbps. That is a shambles and a regular excuse they use for poor equipment.Last but not least, the design is beautiful. I love the colour changing symbol even though I don't see it! This can be modified in the router portal you open by looking for the 'aura' tab on the far right of the home screen. It's wonderful.Enjoy.
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent router at a good price
This is my first ASUS router. I have only used Netgear routers until now (I have about 5 previous ones now unused and gathering dust. I did a lot of research (wasted days) before selecting ASUS. I understand technology very well, with decades of experience; hence have the ability to understand most technical features and aspects.***** Summary: I like this router very much; it is better than some other brands which cost more than 2-3 times the price. I highly recommend it. I will never be going back to my previous brand mentioned above.***** The Good:** No marketing gimmicks; no pushy tactics to buy monthly subscription, and subscription is NOT required.** Setup with app, or by using the web interface. ASUS does not push their mobile app like other companies; although it has a good app (as an advanced user, I do not use the app)** Price is excellent; you get a fast CPU and hardware. Connection speeds are good.** Signal / connectivity at 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz bands is very stable (if using just one router make sure to turn OFF the Roaming Assistant setting in options: (under Advanced Settings) Wireless --> Professional (tab on top) --> set Roaming Assistant = Disable; then you must click Apply yellow button at the bottom of page, to save your setting. Change this setting in BOTH 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz (under Band setting on top of page, and save both)** Physical construction - very good** Uses open source base software (a good thing)** Comes with multiple plugs for UK and Europe (in UK)** Has LEDs for main functions, so that you can check things at a glance** For non-technical users, it offers very simple, quick setup** For people who understand networking or want to learn about networking or are true experts in the inner workings of WiFi standards and TCP/IP protocols, there are an enormous number of advanced settings, far more than most domestic and even SOHO routers.***** The Bad: I have found nothing bad.***** Of course everything can be improved.** Provide a detailed PDF version of the manual (although searching on Google for settings - if needed at all - will work).** Some options for filtering outbound traffic (e.g. if you have children) should be grouped under one section - NOT separate; and for each option (e.g. URL filtering, MAC filtering, IP filtering, etc) a setting of time/day setting for each item should be offered. So, I should be able to say - e.g. block this URL(s)/IP/MAC, from Mon - Fri, from 9pm to 7am, and Sat/Sun from 10pm to 8am. (VERY important and needed by smart parents!)** For settings where one needs to enter a MAC address, ASUS needs to offer a drop-down for MAC address, where when clicked, the drop-down must show a list of all devices currently connected, and also connected in the past (separately grouped), AND next to each MAC address it should also show Host Name and IP Address. This will make it easy for users to add filters; no need to remember/note MAC addresses. Make it more point-and-click.** There should be a setting for DHCP - expire a specific IP/device lease.** There should be a setting for DHCP lease period.** In-bound traffic dropped packets should be logged with more clarity. Add more (common) details to log files.** There should be a setting for exporting log file.** How about option for emailing an alert message, when a rule is triggered? (e.g. errors, problems, attack detected, etc)As I mentioned, it is a great router (I of course desire options which most people will never need, but are very easy for ASUS to add; which will make the router even more attractive for advanced users who have children (that is a BIG market!) My suggestions require only the software/firmware to be enhanced.
5.0 out of 5 stars Replace your ISP's router with this!
I bought this router as I moved to a new house without openreach and either had to pay my new ISP for a router or get my own, I decided to get this one when it was on offer and it was one of my easiest installs!After plugging my ethernet cable from my Fiber box to this router and adding my PPPoE credentials, the router was connected immediately and I could browse the internet right away.It has some neat features built in, such as functioning as a file sharing server if USB's are plugged in, it can host its own VPN if you want to access it remotely or it can connect certain devices to a VPN if you want them separated, or in a different geographic region etc.The UI is response enough and the mobile application works great. I've had no issues with editing any settings or updating the router. The signal on it is great, even where my house has thick floors that usually block all signal.
4.0 out of 5 stars Another ASUS product that should be better
I love ASUS and generally everything I’ve used from them has been amazing. Lately couple ofProducts have let me down after paying extra for the brand and TUF range. This is one of them. The router on a whole is amazing, app is great, easy set up, looks great and decent config. Speeds are fantastic and much better then the Sky router, this can be used instead of Sky rather then running both but I haven’t got into trying it yet.The main issue is the weak 5G signal, it’s very poor in areas my old Netgear didn’t struggle as much in, I’d read previously it wasn’t as strong as something like TP-Link but I thought having a small house it wouldn’t matter, but this router cannot provide 2 bar coverage

Great range WiFi 6 router with a lot of features.
After owning a Netgear Nighthawk AX6000 RAX80 for less than two years it died on me and not being happy with the durability of the Netgear router I decided to look for alternatives.Apart from the router failing within two years of ownership it was actually pretty good and I wanted something on par if not better than it and I watched youtube reviews, looked over various online reviews and specs including signal speed dips at varying ranges, etc and the Asus routers seemed to always stick out as one of the best WiFi routers available.I settled on the ASUS TUF AX5400 after checking what would be suitable for me (large area to cover, 15+ devices connected, WiFi 4-6(n, ac, ax) devices on the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, etc), it was less than half ($240) the price I paid for the Netgear RAX80 ($500) and it had a 3 year warranty. It had a UK & US plug only so I had to get and setup a UK to AU power adapter, I did that and connected it all in and set it up. The setup was super easy. I had a temporary cheap TP-Link router to use after the RAX80 died and before this one came in and the difference was night and day. The range was much much better than the TP-Link and on par with the RAX80. The speeds were also on par if not slightly better than the RAX80 and much much better than the TP-Link. The Netgear was annoying because whenever I would login to it, it would try to sell some security subscription package to me but the ASUS has a free lifetime security package called AiProtection. The ASUS also has much more gaming features and options and even non-gaming features and options which I find quite useful like the Traffic Analyzer, Google/Alexa integration, Network Analysis, Bandwidth Utilization % between the different bands, Traffic Prioritization, etc.Overall I'm super happy with the Asus TUF AX5400, it's got great range and speed, excellent features and is extremely stable (no drop outs or any other issues so far). I think it's the best you can get at this price point and it works extremely well for me.

Good range and even better user interface
I bought this for my double storey home, initially was thinking to startup with this and add a mesh extender to cover the second storey but this one is surprisingly so good that I didn’t n ended an extender. Placed this in the garage and it covers the whole house without any black spots and delivers consistent and high speed data transfers
