to me, it is, done enough tests.
50mbps... easy, most can do, max out with 2.4ghz.
100mbps for me... need 5ghz; 2.4... max out 70-80.
i live in a place where my router can detect 5 neighbor users typically - front, back, sides.
can even get into them with their password!
but does not disrupt my wifi at all.
so, "interference" - walls or other users - is not a big problem, imo.
that's the price tag i thought i saw in one shop.
maybe i was mistaken, more like rm1.8k?
To be honest it does disrupt your WiFi, in the 2.4GHz band but not the 5GHz. You can actually still get 100Mbps but you need to increase your channel bandwidth lol, and in doing that impacting on your neighbor WiFi haha, but better to stick on 5GHz.
You must have seen the AC5300 or RT-AC88U for the price tag.

ar... it must be that ac5300... price tag was 2.2k in one shop!
Yes, it is one of the best router from Asus, and the one that you use if you are serious about your networking lol.

I already know about that, I didn't mention it because if you buy from Gearbest, there is no warranty from ASUS Malaysia
If anything you need to send back to China
Deifinitely not. I wouldn’t get it, as there are many other local options.

I have 7 old routers, 4 killed by lightning. No warranty.
The other 3 in cupboard or I used to use it as AP.
From my experience, I don't need local warranty.
And if I do, the savings will be more than enough to cover postage to China...
To each their own. It might last you for a long time if you are lucky, and don’t need to claim for warranty.
