QUOTE(blacktubi @ Nov 11 2020, 10:22 AM) XT8 without a doubt. DIY AiMesh system will never beat the Tri-Band XT8. I even tried RT-AX88U 2 units and XT8 is still better.  Thanks for reply @blacktubi sifu ~ Means 2 x AX86u also cant beat XT8? Thanks for your advise ~  |

Hi @blacktubi, and all sifus, if compare between
AX86U PRO Vs Rog GT-AX6000? since this 2 model price different not much for now   QUOTE(blacktubi @ Mar 16 2025, 08:30 PM) I would say it's even more worth it at the current discounted price. This post has been edited by honghongnet: May 7 2025, 09:33 AMAX86U PRO checks all the boxes. Flagship grade coverage, tried and tested firmware, able to support a ton of clients on 2.4GHz. Most importantly, it's super stable and I think that's important for a router. The latest RT-BE86U is only slightly faster in terms of WiFi performance. While CPU got a huge performance bump, it does't matter unless you are using those ASUSWRT bells and whistle. |
