About this deal

Fixed null pointer dereference vulnerabilities. Thanks to Chengfeng Ye, Prism Research Group - cse hkust contribution. A quality of service engine that allows you to prioritize Internet traffic to support different applications and services — video conferencing, gaming, and so on.

The router did well with Wi-Fi clients, too. At a close range of 10 feet (3 m), my 4×4 client managed to get some 700Mbps of real-world speed. And at 40 feet away, my 3×3 registered more than 660Mbps. I was able to get a hold of the RT-AX68U significantly before launch and used it for more than a week before publishing this review and had no problem with it, both as a single or part of an AiMesh system. It proved to be a reliable Wi-Fi machine. Like other routers, the RT-AX68U comes with a Traffic Analyser feature, which includes traffic monitoring and statistical tools for those wanting to keep tabs on what’s been going on in their network.

Even with a 5ghz WIFI6 IoT push down the line, most devices will limit bandwidth to 80mhz due to DFS and compatibility issues across markets. Things like PS5 and M1 Macbooks are hard limited to 80mhz for this reason. New Xbox didn’t even bother with WIFI6 hardware and uses an older AC chip. Wi-Fi standards: Wi-Fi 7 | Wi-Fi 6E| UNII-4 (5.9GHz) | Wi-Fi 6 | What is Wi-Fi? | Wi-Fi antennas (dBi) | Wi-Fi broadcasting/signal power (dBm)

On the inside, though, its hardware is a bit subdued, relatable to the similarly-priced RT-AX58U. But the two are quite different. Hardware specifications: RT-AX68U vs. RT-AX58Udoesn’t really have a triple core, but rather Broadcom marketing counts the cpu radio in the SoC. its a 3 (SoC)+1(Radio CPU) design. AX68U is 2(CPU) + 2 (Radio CPU). Reply My 2×2 Wi-Fi 6 generally connected at 1.2Gbps of negotiated speed and registered the sustained real-world throughputs of between 770Mbps and 870Mbps from up to 40 feet (12 m) away. That’s about as fast as a Gigabit connection can give you. Those people who work-from-home & learn-from-home will greatly benefit from this new feature with optimized streaming experiences. Clients which connect to the guest network can be viewed in the network map -->view list --> interface

Online learning, including Khan academy®, Udemy®, Coursera®, TED®, VIPKiD®, 51Talk®, XDF®, Xueersi® In all, the RT-AX68U’s real-world speeds proved to be exactly that of a broadcaster of its specs. It’s generally fast enough to deliver a sub-Gigabit Internet connection in full. Excellent coverage

That said, if you’re upgrading your network from a Wi-Fi 5 router, this new Wi-Fi 6 machine will be a time saver. What’s most valuable, though, is what you can do with the router’s USB ports. You can use them to host portable drives, USB printers, or cellular dongles.

What does all this mean? The older router is a good deal if you have only 802.11n clients, especially if you plan to connect to them at 5GHz.Network Protection is a friendly version of a home firewall application, similar to the Firewalla Blue + case. It won’t give you a lot of in-depth information, but it does keep your network safe, to a certain extent, of course. Asus has one of the most stylish router management interfaces there is, hands down. The design is clean and easy to work with, and it has an appealingly futuristic look that almost reminds me of thecontrols for a video game. The RT-AX68U is rated AX2700, as opposed to AX3000 of the RT-AX58U. The numbers don’t mean much in real life, but they show the biggest difference between them.
