IMHO ASUS is much better. The settings in the web interface are much more comprehensive and ASUS does not charge you a subscription for their internet security (they use Trend Micro). Also, the Netgear only has a 1Gig WAN port, where the ASUS has 2.5Gig. So if you at some point want to go beyond 1 Gig internet service, you'll need a new router. Also Asus has great parental controls, in case you have kids/teenagers. Asus also provides more frequently firmware updates to fix vulnerabilities, Netgear's product support left a lot to be desired.

I have had Linksys, TP-Link and Netgear in the past 20 years, upgraded earlier this year to an Asus RT-AX86U and love it, will never go back from Asus again. I would recommend the RT-AX86U or Pro (not the S), a bit more expensive, but you can get used ones on ebay for around the same price ($130). The enhanced firmware Merlin-WRT works on the 86U, but not on the 82U.

Also check out Dongknows.com, he does awesome in-depth tests about most routers.

Hope that helps!

I bought this router from Costco last year on black Friday. It's fast and has good range. Covers my previously dead spots at high speeds.

What was your previous router? I have a Nighthawk X4S R7800 that I got in 2018. Seems to work well, except the garage on the opposite side of the house as the router.

It was a Netgear R6300v2. AC1750.
I picked it up on clearance probably around 2018.
Internal antennas. Decent 2.5GHz range. Poor 5GHz range. And the 5G band dropped all the time. I suffered with it enough... I couldn't take it anymore LMAO
Replaced it last year.

I had the 6300v2 for a few years before upgrading. Gave it to a family member and they are still using it 4+ years later! Might just get this and pass on my X4S to someone in need in my family/friend circle.

Cheers!

Had this for 3 years.
Fast and good coverage.
But I have to reboot it every 2 week-4 weeks because it may lose signals.

I don't know anything about routers and am currently using AT&T's standard fiber gateway BGW320. How much better would this router be? I have a couple of spots around the house where I only get 2 bar WiFi strength. TYIA.

Thanks for the detailed reply! I don't know much about routers, but my computer has been giving me a notification about my router's wifi being unsecure or outdated, so I thought it was time for a change

Had nothing but issues with my x6s router constantly freezing up on me after I owned it for a months and did an update. Kept it for a couple years and the issue never went away. The support was awful the product was awful. Would recommend any other router company before net gear. The support window outside of knowledge base is something absurdly low like 30-60 days. After that you have to pay for support even if the product is under warranty. Cant stress enough do not give them your business.
