ZenWiFi XT9 AX7800 Tri-Band WiFi6 Mesh WiFiSystem (1Pack), 802.11ax, up to 2850 sq ft & 4+ Rooms, AiMesh, Lifetime Free Internet Security, Parental Controls, 2.5G WAN Port, UNII 4, Charcoal

I just upgraded to the XT9 from the Eero devices and it is like going from riding a bicycle to driving a sports car, the features, tools and capabilities are extensive. The setup is pain free and simple, similar to most wifi mesh systems you would buy today. After the initial setup is where you get the ability to fine tune your network. Asus has an excellent Web app called Asusrouter, that has an extensive set of features and parameters that you can use to customize your network to your specific requirements. I am currently running a Public IP network connected to my provider and it was very easy and straight-forward to set up after getting the Public P addresses. I worked with my provider to get their side set up and then configured my end. Works really well and the speed is exactly what I am paying for, the XT9 does NOT limit the speed or features of my service at all. The coverage that Asus promises is also realistic. I have the 2-device package that covers 5700 sq ft and it really provides that wide coverage. I have the node setup in my garage and the main router in my office and all 42 of my devices are connected with excellent signal strength on each device. It is nice to be able to connect everything and not worry about where in the house, yard or garage we go, we have excellent coverage. In summary, what I like most about the ASUS ZenWiFi XT9 AX7800, is the Web App that gives you the ability to customize your network to your specifications and the fact that it provides real time monitoring of the devices and has extensive logs. I am also very happy with the wide coverage area it provides and the strength of the signal. I had a lot of problems with signal strength before installing the Asus, and that is now resolved. I recommend this product and I did not get it free or in a promotion. UPDATE 10/18/2023 This is an update to give a complete review of not only the product but also Support. I have had the opportunity since installing the devices to talk and email support. Be aware that the Support organization is not very good. I have spoken 3-4 times with agents in the Network support area and they were not very skilled or knowledgeable of the product and how it works or is supposed to be configured. I also sent an email about 4 days ago and still have not heard anything back from them. I still give this product 5 stars, because of both the web and mobile app, but beware that if you need support it may not be there for you.

I’ve bought and returned ASUS systems due to a cluttered interface that didn’t actually change the things it said it did. While the interface is still cluttered, it does work well, and the performance is fantastic. The price is reasonable, and I would consider this system an excellent value. The second 5GHz channel is very fast. *EDIT* Unfortunately I had to return these. They started rebooting every thirtyish minutes and did so for days. From what I could gather online, this is an old problem that creeps back in with some frequency. As I was at the end of the return window, I couldn’t risk an ongoing issue.

I purchased the 2-pack on March 9th and paid full list price ($450) plus tax, nearly $500 in total. It was a mistake. It went out with the trash two weeks ago, less than 4 months later. I had previously been using a pre-Amazon eero router with two satellites. I had been rock solid for four or more years. When I began getting internet dropouts several times a week, I rashly concluded that the router was failing and needed to be replaced. (It turned out to have been a Cox problem.) On the recommendation of the New York Times Wirecutter and other reviewers, I decided to splurge on Asus' XT9. My experience with it was not entirely satisfactory. My wife and I are retired, and we listen to SiriusXM's Symphony Hall channel on the Everywhere group for much of the morning. With the new router, we were getting momentary dropouts every hour or so. The sound would pause and we would hear static for a second or so, and the sound would then return. Also, several times a week we would lose the stream altogether. I initially assumed Cox was the culprit but was becoming increasingly suspicious that it was the XT9. I have since reinstalled the old eero system. It remains rock solid and we've not had any problems whatsoever. After an evening of thunder and lightning storms, the power glitched momentarily in the morning. The power went out and then came back immediately. Not surprisingly, the internet had disconnected. Although my modem showed that it had reconnected, the XT9 reported no internet. I assumed that it was some kind of Cox problem that I just didn't understand. When the internet was still out the next morning, I contacted Cox and learned that it was not an internet outage. The problem was the XT9. (Yes, it had been running on a surge protector.) After 3 or 4 hours of troubleshooting (and resetting the XT9, I managed to get the internet back and most of my devices reconnected. However, it took another hour or more to get my HP desktop to connect. That certainly gave me pause. After lunch, I set out to install the satellite unit and discovered that it would not pair with the main unit. After several more hours of troubleshooting that day and the next, I concluded that one or both units needed to be replaced. Before contacting customer service, I decided to look back at the Amazon reviews. That was truly a revelation. I started with the 1* reviews, reasoning that they would reflect the experience of those who had also encountered problems with the XT9. I found lengthy reports that were by-and-large written by incredibly astute and experienced IT professionals. I encourage you to read these reviews. I wish I had. Among other things, the reviewers speak to their experience with Asus' customer service. They were not able to reach second-tier customer agents without going through hours and hours of troubleshooting with the first-tier and then having to document their problems in writing. I really didn't want to go through that myself. Moreover, as I thought about it, I decided that I wouldn't replace my eeros with the XT9 even if the connection problem were fixed. In my opinion, the XT9 is a beta product that wasn't fully tested and not ready for prime time.

Solid and stable product. Easy Setup with app. In depth router configuration available when connecting and logging in via laptop. Fast WiFi everywhere, even when using wireless backhaul.

Excelente producto, muy buena cobertura, hace una administración de dispositivos con adecuada conexión. App muy intuitiva y fácil de administrar. Estoy en la etapa de configurar la VPN con la app de ASUS, sigo intentándolo. Recomendable al 100% si sufres de poca cobertura. Si tienes un enlace de internet básico (60Mb promedio) hace una excelente distribución del ancho de banda entre los dispositivos para que no tengan problemas de “lentitud”.

Excelente producto, cumplió mis expectativas. Había leído que se tenía que reiniciar de vez en cuando por que se "trababa" desde que lo configure ha quedado muy bien. Aplicación 10 de 10. Si lo recomiendo

Extremadamente complicado de instalar, no tiene el área de cobertura que publican, ni remotamente, sobre todo en construcciones de méxico que aún utilizamos mutis de tabique y block, no como en usa que todo es de madera y tablaroca. Muy caro para lo que funciona, mejor comprar algo no tan caro y meter varios repetidores

Justo lo que necesitaba para extender mi red Wifi en casa, recién compré un router Asus BE y con la tecnología AiMesh me fue súper fácil enlazarlo y conectar todos mis aparatos con la menor perdida y usando la misma app.

Hacen lo que dicen, aunque de ves en cuando pierden conexión entre nodos y hay que re conectarlos. Pero de ahí en fuera bien.
