If you have tons of wireless devices, this might be a better option, but overall, the ROG has higher wifi throughput.

Is this the same as the RT-AC86U. I have that for 1-2 years and I am loving it. Perfect for big houses.

Maybe linksys is better but I haven't had much luck with refurbished routers. They always start dropping and failing after 6 months

Currently $180 on Amazon, this is just an OK deal.

My old 68r is dying, I need something that will get me another 6 years like this one did. We are not a crazy connected household, 15-20 items tops. No Google or Alexa items. Any advice from the pros here?

I'm not sure what's triple-level game acceleration, but I'm sure it's 🔥

Good price but in ecosystem of AiMesh

Sound like just a firmware change then? can't that just be a firmware reflash to 86U?
