I ordered these last Tuesday and received them this past Saturday. Set them up same day. Working well.
I have always heard 6ghz band doesn't travel as far as 5ghz, but in my home I'm able to use them a floor apart, wireless backhaul, and signal strength at the remote node is -60dBm, which is fantastic & very strong. Two units is enough coverage for my house.

As long as you have internet service 1 gigabit or less, for $99 this is a great deal. If you have faster than 1 gigabit service the LAN ports on these mesh units is only 1GB, so your connectivity to the internet will be limited to 1GB max. In that case, I recommend buying a router/mesh system with at least 2.5GB LAN ports so you can access your full internet speed from devices connected to the LAN ports (assuming your internet service is 2.5GB; if it's faster than that then I tip my hat to you, impressive speed!).

Yes, I understand. I bought the prior generation ASUS mesh too, the ASUS XT8. That also had bad reviews.. and yet it's been working well for me for years. But maybe these don't work for some people because of the way the house is constructed, the way the system is configured, etc. There are so many factors that could be involved.

Another way to look at it is many people don't post positive reviews. I did, but I don't think everyone does. Anyway for $99 I decided to give it a try. I have only had it running 3 days so who knows how it will work long-term, but if they are like the XT8s, I am confident the ET9 will work well too. If not, I can still use the ET9s as access points in a wired backhaul configuration. It was a fluke that I discovered I could create a 2nd AiMesh with the ET9s. I did not expect that!
