ASUS – ROG Strix GS-BE18000 Tri-Band Wi-Fi 7 Gaming Router – Black

Reliable and fast so far - Im very happy with the router, gives good speeds via LAN and wifi. It is a bit on the pricier side but is a solid router with wifi 7 and multiple 2.5 ports for LAN.

Disappointed with this router - As the title says, disappointed with this router. I have to reset this router more often than the 10 year old Asus router it replaced. On average I have to reset this router once or twice a week because the speed drops or random devices stop working.

Amazing Router! - This router is amazing! Asus equals quality products! When it comes to routers, they’ve made my experience awesome. The software is user friendly, setting it up is a breeze. I’ve tried them all. Asus tops in every category! Then most importantly it’s a gaming machine!

Works great and stabilized by ping. - We moved Warner Springs, a very rural area with no physical cable or internet available. We are using T-Mobile and I have speed of 800-900 Mps down, but my ping was all over the place when I was gaming. Bought this after doing some research and changed a few settings. Now my gaming is way more stable, and we don't need the T-Mobile supplied mesh extender for our Tv, either. If you like to customize your internet settings to by-pass your ISP's settings, this is a great router to do it with.

Great Router - It was easy to setup and works with multiple devices on the network, even when gaming

Serious Wi‑Fi upgrade for gaming and a busy home - This router has been a major upgrade for my home network. Setup was straightforward, coverage is strong throughout the house, and it handles gaming, streaming, smart-home devices, and multiple connected devices without slowing down. The wired performance has been excellent and the Wi‑Fi has stayed stable without random drops. It is expensive, but for fast internet and a household with a lot of devices, it has been worth it.

Wifi 7 - Very fast speeds ,easy to set up,very good through the app or web intrface to tweak controls and settings,would highly recommend

ASUS router - Didn’t work kept rebooting and had to return! Would not recommend

Gaming Router , works like it should , great signal .

Future Proof Wifi - Super easy setup and integration into my wireless network at home and won't have to worry about anything for a long time to come

Wonderful router but only for a few months - Out of the box this thing was smoking fast, local transfer speeds well over a gig over WiFi everywhere in our 2200 sq ft barndominium, and I didn't have to download a stupid app in order to set it up or configure anything. Asus has been my go-to for routers for this reasons for quite awhile now. However...as time went on I started noticing more and more strange instability issues, games as simple as roblox would have freezing similar to that of packet loss, another more intensive game that relies heavily on voice comms I would notice people's mics cutting in and out randomly. This issue got worse and worse until I narrowed it down to the 6ghz band. It's gotten to the point where the reported link speed in windows drops from 5733/5733 to less than 200/200 at seemingly random times. The 5Ghz band also suffers from this but to a MUCH lesser extent and I consider it fairly usuable but come on...I bought a WiFi 7 router expecting 5Ghz and 6Ghz to be completely functional, no amount of factory resetting has done me any good unfortunately. My old RT-AXE7800 was about the same distance away, did 5Ghz and 6Ghz flawlessly, and cost much less. Not sure what can be done at this point other than toss it aside and find something else, you let me down ASUS.

Absolutely worth every penny - I stream alot and the whole house games. This router is perfect for the excessive amount of traffic!

Good but range could be better - Great produce. App has good info. I thought range would be better. I understand distance and walls slow things down but just a couple small rooms away down a hallway and it’s slower than I would hope.

Gaming router is the future - Honestly i had a fair share of other brands but Asus Router are good and does not drop wifi or slow down alot compared to Netgear (Nighthawk has became a joke for its reliability before reaching its turning point). Honestly this router is meant for those who are knowledgeable and how to control for themselves and also provides IoT wifi separated for security cameras and low usage wifi devices. Sure its confusing for those who are entering the gaming wifi area but its good in a long run.

The Rog - This is a beast highly recommend! It can keep up with way more work than i can do at once

Couldn't Connect to WAN - Router never detected a WAN connection from my modem. However every other router I've tested connects automatically

Asus Routers are the best! - This is my 2nd Asus router. It works great as a plug and play (requiring very little for casual users) and allows for deep configuration if wanted by advanced users. You can separate the SSID names if you want. This gives you more control over the radio usage and bandwith by device. I have had other routers that do not allow you to do this. Highly recommended!

Update that killed my internet - This was a decent product till an update that was pushed by Acus that caused my internet to crash.

Great when it's working - When working properly, this router is great. I have two for my house and I have excellent connection everywhere. My speeds in my upstairs office almost doubled in my old brick and plaster house. However, they have a massive downside that I have seen some others mentioned but hoped I wouldn't experience myself. They will randomly drop all internet connection and have to be turned off and back on to fix it. Your devices still show they are connected, but they have no internet. This has happened 3 times since I bought them just over 2 weeks ago. The first time it happened, I had to factory reset them and fully set my network back up. I have had 3 different router setups at my house, all mesh systems and never experienced issues like this. I would return them, but I did not know Best Buys return window was just 15 days. If you buy them and experience one outage, return immediately or you may be stuck with them like myself.

The program/app is horrible. - Nothing but problems so for. Most "features" do NOT work.
