It's decent for a 2x2 + 2x2 design, but the price can drop lower.


We're currently in a router price exodus. Kinda like GPUs.
I've had the big brother version of this since January, the GS-AX5400 and it's been great. Easy to set up with the app and I haven't had to reboot it. I think this is a killer deal for this price from a reputable retailer. You can find these on ebay for a hundred bucks but you still pay tax so in the end I think it makes sense for peace of mind to just buy from wal mart for a few bucks more. You may be able to win an auction for the AX5400 for a little more than this but you are always chancing it with ebay imo.

Oh, you're totally correct. I have the RT version which has a dual-core 1.4GHZ and 512MB RAM, so looks like this newer model has no downsides that I can see.
It would definitely seem that way to me. Worse case scenario you can always keep using your RT-AC5300, just turn off the wifi on it and use the GS-AX3000 for wireless in that area if you want to get the AX standard, that way wifi falls to the GS-AX3000 routing and switching is handled by the RT-AC5300.

Yes the RT-AC5300 is more common, I have one myself, which is why I assumed that is the one you had.

You just have to test things.

The radios on this new model are weaker from a general aspect, but they could perform better due to a full 1w power output on unii-1.

RT-AC5300 only peaks 681mW on lower spectrum. Does full 997mW on unii-3.
This router GS-AX3000 does full 1W on both, but the radio is a weaker 2x2 design.


Like I said I have a $100 GT-AC2900 outperforming a $500+ USD AXE11000 (Both 4x4) on certain channels due to my environment. WIFI isn't static.

Ok, but again I'll still be able to use the ax routers, just not as the main or base router connected to the modem.

Correct, though I'm not sure how AI mesh handles it. Wired backhaul will always be the best option.

We had a newer Linksys router crap out months ago and grabbed this one at Walmart for $200. It's been rock solid. If we didn't have any power outages with summer storms this router wouldn't have been rebooted. I've learned my lesson and will never buy another router brand

I bought one of these for 75 dollars at a walmart clearance area and it is phenomenal. I sadly have to play many of my competitive multiplayer games on wifi and ive noticed much smoother connections since getting this.

Is there a router that can make my 2.4ghz wifi go faster? I'm getting a pathetic 50Mbps on 1 gig service. 30 feet away, I'm getting 1.7Mbps.

I currently run an AC5300 with several other ASUS routers in Aimesh via wired backhaul. Looking to upgrade the base router to 802.11ax. Anyone know if there would be any drawback to moving to this model as my base router? (any lost features or capabilities?)
I upgraded to a TP-Link AX6000 and it's great, I got it used for $100. Just under their top gaming router. The ONLY NEGATIVE is that there's a limit on how many files it can read from external USB drives, which is STUPID! For me, I could only see 2 of my 7 storage drives thru USB ports of router! If you only need to used 2 drives, yo ushould be good. The range and strength of AX over AC is HUGE!, a game changer! Qith AX, I can reach the farthest upper room with plenty of strength. ie, with AC my tv upstairs would get 30-40 Mbps. Now with AX it would get 300+ Mbps. AX is a MUST UPGRADE, IMO...and the great thing is, it's now affordable!

Do you think it'll go lower?
