Why routers nowadays look more and more like creatures from Skull Island?
I've had this router for 6 months. Never had needed a restart and performance is excellent.
That's not an accurate TL;DR. Their cons summary is "The weaknesses are the bulky size, weak 2.4 GHz throughput, the large number of dropped video frames in our congestion testing, and the high price. At the end of the day, while this is a decent router, at this high price point for a top-end gaming router, the AX11000 left us wanting more consistent performance."

Well, right from the start it's not the price here that it was when they reviewed it on April 21, 2021. At the high price, ​it "left us wanting more consistent performance". But, what about at half price?

Also, their test was using a 300 Mbps network, and the only other issues they had was the physical size and the 2.4 GHz network bandwidth and how it performed when they stress tested (playing a game while simultaneously streaming ten 8k videos) it on a 300 Mbps network. Didn't exactly extensively test it at the router's higher end specs, such as using a Gigabit or 2 Gigabit network. How about 8 people gaming simultaneously? How about listing what potential obstacles they had when testing the "far" distance? How many other 2.4 GHz devices are pounding away in their airspace during the test? Hardly scientific, thorough, or conclusive.

If you don't care about the size (which is hard to avoid when there are EIGHT ethernet ports and it's TRI-BAND), or 2.4 GHz, what exactly is the reason to avoid this?

I'm going to give it a try. It's the cheapest of the bunch and if it meets my needs then no need to spend more. Costco makes it easy to return.

I am waiting for that new 6E model from them, promised in Jan 2021 and still unreleased. Damn it. This is tempting.

Similar boat here. 6 is my minimum, would prefer 6E, and 6E with 10GbE SPF+ would be cherry. Not sure how much more patience I have dangling this in front of me though at this price.

Just got the Asus RT-AC86U delivered today but this is a pretty good price and seems to have better specs. I'm gonna give the Asus a go and see if it lives up to the hype.

They had this for $250 the week after Black Friday, and that price was good for only a week or so. Mine is less than 30 days old, so getting an adjusted price.

Is this a good route for eSports on pc?

Been looking for a good wireless setup for a long time but gave up a few years ago as I would get random freezes ingame. I switched to Ethernet but unfortunately it looks ugly running a 50 ft wire around the room lol

This is a great price for wifi 6 top of the line tplink router. Only thing missing is wifi 6e which is still new. Would love to upgrade to this but have the asus tmobile 68u still rocking solid for months now.
