I’m very impressed with the ASUS RT-BE88U. Setup was straightforward, and the router has been fast, reliable, and easy to manage. Wi-Fi performance has been excellent throughout my home, with strong speeds and a stable connection. The interface is also well laid out and gives you plenty of options without being overly complicated. Overall, it’s a powerful router that delivers great performance and has been working extremely well for me.
Many features available for setting up and highly versatile. Has great range. Would highly recommend. Is a bit pricey compared to other brands but totally worth the cost for what you are getting.

Dear Valued Customer,
Thank you for your comment.
We do understand your dissatisfaction with the quality of your recent customer service experience if there was no response after four days you reach out and the inconvenience this may have caused if your old DDNS is dead using the RT-BE88U router. It failed because the old hostnames tied to an older router need proper account binding to transfer over. To resolve this, update the firmware if the router running with an oudated version. Update for the router is posted at: https://www.asus.com/networking-iot-servers/wifi-routers/asus-gaming-routers/rt-be88u/helpdesk_bios?model2Name=RT-BE88U. Once updated, open the ASUS Router Application, log into your ASUS account, go to Settings > Account Binding > ASUS DDNS, and re-link or import your existing hostname.
We do value our customers and take the negative customer service experience very seriously. This is not the quality of service expected from ASUS. We stand behind our product and continuously strive to improve our approach and processes to achieve customer service excellence. If you need further assistance with the product, please email me at cl-rodel@asus.com and I will be more than happy to help.

Once setup, most of my Wi-Fi receivers had trouble holding the signal! The Wi-Fi kept dropping out..then reconnecting saying ‘no internet connection’. Using the previous same ssid and password, only half of my devices reconnected with the new router, the rest I had to completely remove from the system and do a complete install/re-hook up. As I was letting the router do its thing, reading up on it, more of my devices came on line! Having gone through this, this router is now working as advertised!
A good router with a fairly intuitive app interface and an even better online interface. Relatively easy to set up; my only negative thing is that the range on this router should be better for something in this price range
