Setup for VOIP and so far works really good. I have Starlink and Orbi Mesa System, which weren't working with my VOIP setup. Calls seem clear and working much better.

Not really the upgrade I was looking for.

This wifi router is in with the WIFI7 stuff, last time I looked. It doesn't have the 6Ghz frequency that is the new frequency for WiFi7, so I'm not sure I really got an upgrade from my previous Asus RT-AX3000. Both have 2.5Fhz and 5 Ghz and maybe the new one has more WiFi sharing technology for the existing frequency methods/technology but it leaves me a generation behind instead of ready for WiFi7. I'll need to buy another down the road. Bad on me for not reading carefully, buyer beware, read the fine print before buying.

Dear MoJack,

Thank you for your comment.

We do understand your disappointment with this router and the inconvenience this may have caused if you don't see a 6TGHz frequency for WIFI-7. This router does support WIFI-7, you can access WIFI-7 inside the router's settings, locate for wireless settings and enable WIFI-7 mode, or 6GHz band. Ensure your devices support WIFI-7 for optimum performance. If you don't see this option available inside Settings, we recommend updating the router's firmware if it is running with an older version. Firmware is available for download at: https://www.asus.com/us/networking-iot-servers/wifi-routers/asus-gaming-routers/rt-be88u/helpdesk_bios?model2Name=RT-BE88U. Should you need further assistance with the product, please email me at cl-rodel@asus.com and I would be more than happy to help. Or you are most welcome to call Product Support Hotline at: 1(888) 678-3688. Also, you can chat with an ASUS live support agent from the link: https://www.asus.com/us/support/article/1135/.

Thank you for choosing an ASUS product.

Quality and great software balance

You want to plug it in and run, fine. Or you want to tweak settings, go for it with a great UI that supports a rich set of options. ASUS stands behind it with support and timely firmware updates -- and has solid security protection built in.
