The Asus RT-BE86U, priced at $299.99, is a dual-band Wi-Fi 7 router praised for its exceptional performance and throughput. Testing with a benchmarking tool showed it surpasses ISP limits in data transfer capabilities. However, the absence of a 6GHz band limits its full potential to leverage Wi-Fi 7’s capabilities, particularly its 320MHz channels. Despite this limitation, its performance, good port selection, and coverage area make it a strong contender in the router market, although its intimidating app and web configuration may deter some users.
The Asus RT-BE86U is a $299.99 dual-band Wi-Fi 7 router providing excellent performance and throughput, exceeding the ISP data limits without needing wired backhaul.
Despite the impressive performance, the lack of a 6GHz band on the RT-BE86U limits its potential to fully utilize Wi-Fi 7's capacity for enhanced throughput.
