If you are concerned about this much space then you don't need the range this router provides. Yes the lights can be turned off.
AX68U has a better main CPU from the AC86U (BCM4096) and a better 3x3 2.4G radio relative to the 2x2 SoC variant on 82U.
AX68U is pretty much an AX86U with a weaker 3x3 5G Radio. Main CPU and 2.4G are pretty much identical. Only real difference is internal mem storage/RAM on 2 disabled cores on the 4906 variant of 4908 (4 core).. Technically the AX68U has "4 cores" if we're comparing it relative to the 82U... AX68U is 2 main + 2 Radio design. 82U is 3+1 design given SoC nature.
AX68U is competitive with AX86U in terms of legacy AC performance at range, 82u falls behind, but has better AX performance due to larger MIMO. 3x3 vs 4x4. SNR helps.
I'm biased to the 68U because I feel its a "higher end" product internally, but the 82U would be competitive if real world performance matched AX86U in 5G. 82U and 86U share same AX 5G radio, but 82 performs worse for whatever reason. (Amplifiers, antennas, real world positioning etc.. )
I'm using it to replace my Verizon FiOS modem/router and so far it's been awesome. I really love the ability to configure everything via the GUI within the webapp as well as the Android app. It does use Trend Micro for QOS and other features for those that are privacy concerned. I use my own DNS server with Adguard Home.
Range and speed is great so far, its centrally located in a 3k sqft house with two floors.
Newbie... How do you replace the Verizon fios router with this? Do you use both?
Flash the 86u with merlin, then look into cake qos

A "gaming" router normally has more horsepower and firmware choices. A mesh system purely exists to improve range. If your devices are within range of a single router, get a badass router. If your devices have low signal, then extend your range via mesh.

Thanks. I have 68u now and want this. Was considering using the aimesh but maybe this will make it pointless
Hmmm. Guess the thousand upon thousands of awesome reviews on their routers must be all wrong

Gotta say that I have the ax88u and the gaming features are questionable as to how helpful they are. I've had all sorts of latency issues streaming gamepass or stadia games over wifi with it on that are fixed when turned off. This might not be the case if you're running a wired connection or dealing with so much congestion that gaming is unplayable otherwise, but in my experience buying these routers for their "gaming" features just isn't worth it.
