I could keep could this page very and just say: It is an awesome router, go out and get one. But, don't worry. I do have more to say than that. ASUS' RT-AC86U is a classic router from its design. A stand-up router with three antennas on top. While that's...

Extensive firmware, Solid Wi-Fi speed and coverage, Well priced

You can customize just about every setting and the 5GHz speeds are amazing. It also has gaming-centric features, security for your entire home and USB 3.1 Gen 1 for fast network storage and printing

At $200, the Asus RT-AC86U is one of the best all-around routers. It has all the latest features, including extra security for all of your devices. This router should maximize your bandwidth and keep your home network running smoothly...
Great throughput performance, User interface was very easy to use and thought out, VPN server and client for cutting-edge security, Easy set up, AiMesh support
No support for VPN Fusion
What can I say about this router but damn, it was way better than I expected! I have used a lot of routers both wireless and wired and both for home and commercial use. As a network security engineer, I look at a device like this from many angles both in...

Abstract: The latest high-end routers are, more often than not, large, chunky boxes that weigh over a kilogram and take up more space than some gaming consoles.Thus, it is refreshing to find that Asus has reverted to a compact design for its new RT-AC86U dual-band...
Abstract: Trong số các router hỗ trợ, thiết bị rẻ nhất có giá khoảng trên 3 triệu, cũng thuộc dòng router cao cấp và đắt tiền. Theo Asus thì trong tương lai hãng này sẽ ra mắt các bộ phát hỗ trợ AiMesh với giá thấp hơn, cho phép mở rộng vùng phủ sóng dễ dàng hơn...
