1 year agoExpensive but I use an Asus acx-16000 which has a 2.5Gbe wan port (which I get 1.4Gbe bidirectional fiber) and 2 10Gbe ports. Wifi gets 1000MB/sec to my phone and it has every and any feature you can think of.
If you get one I’d recommend Merlin’s bios too.
Also their AI mesh is good too. Well worth every penny. Handles 100 smarthome devices and runs at full bandwidth no problem.
Check out the Asus router emulator to see what it can do. It’s going to make your nighthawk look like a joke by way of comparison.
Expensive, but I use an asus GT-AXE 16000 and an AX-11000 in a mesh to cover my house with over 100 smarthome devices. The routers are top end, with features galore. They auto-switch devices to the most performant connection they can support. The 16000 has a 2.5Gbe WAN port, and 2 10Gbe ports, so it’s future facing. It supports wifi 6/6e and my phone speed tests at over 1000MB/sec on it.
