Review: Amazingly good mesh access points - This is a really good mesh system, and a good value. With the 3 pack, it covers at least 4000 square feet, including through walls, with nearly full signal everywhere on the 2.4ghz network. It's easy to set up - just find the IP address and log in. There is an app, but it never forces you to use it. I am using a wired backhaul with gigabit fiber, and I get ~300mbit up and down over 2.4ghz and about 700mbit over 5ghz using wifi 6E (I don't have any wifi 7 devices yet). I get the full gigabit using the wired port. These do support connecting with each other wirelessly though, and with wifi7 and the ability to use double the channel width, I'd imagine they would do a pretty good job even without the backhaul; although I didn't test that. The web based management console is quite nice too. I was able to diagnose a long standing issue with my wired network using the built in diagnostics, which was an extra bonus. These can also be used as a router, and it has a lot of features like VPN, etc. in that mode, but I needed to use them as access points due to my ISP. If you are in the market for a router though, skip it and just get the 3 pack of these since it's cheaper and you get way more range. The only downside is that they only give you two Ethernet ports - one for backhaul and one for a single device. That's easily remedied by connecting a cheap 5 port switch to the device port though, and I'd rather do that than have to pay a higher price for each of these. These are night and day better than my old Linksys mesh access points (which were terrible in every way), and I am so glad I upgraded to these.
Review: Constant disconnections, compatibility issues, 3-4 daily reboots required to make this system usable - Terrible product overall. These were easy to setup and the WiFi coverage was sufficient but that is where my positive experience stopped. Speed was extremely variable compared to my aging Orbi system that I was trying to replace. After a reboot speed was great, then after 10-15 minutes it would slow tremendously. Nodes were constantly disconnecting/going offline. The whole system needed to be rebooted 3-4 times a day to remain usable. I’m very disappointed in the functionality and performance of Asus mesh networks after trying both this system and a higher end version. Not to mention the ongoing compatability issues with many of my products. I returned the system and for now I’m sticking with my much older Orbi system as it has bullet proof reliability, good speed, and zero compatibility issues. Hopefully asus can work out their issues in future versions since on paper this product should have been awesome.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Good range, poor documentation, limited support for older devices
*by J***N on January 1, 2026*

Setup was a bit rough. Initially I was unable to connect to the primary over HTTP. After resetting the unit, I was able to connect, but after following the instructions the secondary was trying to use wireless to connect to the primary, even though both were connected to the LAN via ethernet. The next day, I found the buried menu page with the switch to use ethernet backhaul. That should be the default behaviour if it's plugged in to ethernet and can reach the primary via the ethernet port. It should at the very least be easier to find. Maybe put it on the same menu page as "backhaul priority". But it's working pretty well now. Legacy (IoT) mode does not support all older devices. Specifically, Slim Devices Squeezebox 2/3 does not work at all. Squeezebox Radio needs the "community firmware" upgrade in order to connect reliably. It doesn't seem like there should be an issue, since both devices support WPA2 security, and the legacy mode of the ZenWiFi is supposed to support WPA2/WPA3.
