It's not that I'm complaining at all, people are looking at features and specific things on these routers. This is certainly a good deal for this router, but in my case, I have Verizon 5G home internet which gives me about 3GB of speed so this router will be useless in my case because it can handle a maximum of 1GB internet speeds.
Oh, nothing against you. Your concerns were totally valid, I'm talking about the 3 other people complaining about this deal because it doesn't have AX.

Probably compatible with OpenWRT as an R6800 variant. Nice deal.

Also, the vast majority of people won't see any benefit with wireless AX. Wifi 6E might be worth it, but not vanilla 6.
Not compatible with OpenWRT I think

You're not getting 3 gigabit from 5G. You're probably confusing your data caps or units or something.

Very good deal! Thanks OP!
Was just wondering if anyone would recommend this as an upgrade over Asus RT68U?

It almost certainly is. May need some tweaking to get everything working right.

Let's see a screen shot of your speedtest. Also speeds are rated in bits not Bytes.

I'm getting 3300mbps through my Verizon Getway 5g mom. I'm connected to 5G ultrawideband tower so it's extremely fast. Ridiculously fast speed. It's so fast that I don't have a router to take advantage of this speed so I'm still getting less than 1GB wirelessly from the router. Though my desktop is getting full internet because I upgraded my ethernet adapter to a newer 2.5GB one.
Speed test screenshot?

Quote from imjimmy :
Why would anyone buy AC when you can get AX in this price range? AX has MU-MIMO, OFDMA and other features which benefit even a lower speed connection. An entry level AX router will give better speed than this over 5 Ghz.
Wireless speed is incredibly dependent on the specific environment. Not everyone will see much of an improvement with AX and, further, just because the speed specs of one router are better doesn't actually mean the performance will be better. There's a whole world of specific hardware, software drivers, and operating systems that provide a varied experience.

If it is there is no mention of it on openwrt site. Not even a mention in the forums of someone attempting to get it to work. If you did try it looks like you would be completely on your own figuring it out.

I picked up a TPLink AC1900 for about 25 bucks from eBay refurbished and it has been fantastic. Why do people need AX anyway?

Also do you know where the tower is? Your front yard?

Amazon until recently had the Netgear RAX 20 for $50 which was $35 for those that has the $15 off. Walmart had it on clearance via brickseek for $35. I have this one and can get 500 Mbps even on AC clients.

Tplink Ax3000 has been on sale on ebay for $60.xx but has gone lower in the past.

I would just wait for better AX based router deals.
