I have been using the RT-AC87R for more than 7 years. Should I upgrade to this model?

While this is a good router, this price is too much for a 4 year old model that doesn't have 6E or 2.5G ethernet.

I would pick up one of the warehouse open box ones for under $75 or wait on a deal to get one with newer chipsets and standards for around this price or just a tad more.

Do you have any issues with that router/wifi in the house? Yes do it.
Do you have any/many Wifi 6 devices? Maybe.
Do you have or plan to have any/many Wifi 7 devices? Wait for 7 routers to go main stream.

Or you want to splurge a bit more I hear good thing about ASUS RT-AX86U. Especially if you have -over- 1Gbps internet speed or do a lot of NAS stuff with its 2.5G ethernet.

Alternatively if you have a best buy you can recycle an old networking device for 15% off either of those models for even cheaper than Amazon.

This is a good router. For the money I don't think there is anything better right now. Runs Merlin firmware

This should be $60 if it's going on sale. This is 5 yr old tech.

What's the difference between this one and this one? Looks the same.

My now 4yr old ax88u pro I bought for $275 is currently $240 and has only been down to $230 since.

Don't think we're going to catch price drops like we did pre COVID for a long time.
This is a decent price break if you need to upgrade an older router, seems to be $130 other places.

I am looking at replacing my RT-AC68U node. I have an AX92U, GS-AX3000, & GS-AX5400. Anyone have any thoughts on other models I should get before I get this one? It is only $5 more than a renewed GS-AX3000.

Any reason to get something like this over an Unifi LR Wi-Fi 6 AP? And use a microtik for router or a different router? Just want the best wireless connection. Currently have the Unifi. 120+ devices. Works but some corners of my house have issues.

I was running Google WiFi for years, but it always has this weird problem, so I just swapped in some ac86u's (converted TMob units) and set up mesh. They've been great. Lol. They're so old but doesn't matter.
