Title: Fast router
Review: Old router was dropping/resetting Wi-Fi so I spent a lot of time looking for a new router. I don't need wifi7 or to spend $1000 on a new one. The old one had a really slow web interface and was a pain to do anything. This one has recent hardware, a good price (especially on sale), and is significantly faster and has more options. Most new routers require an app to set up and that was a no go for me. Completely unnecessary to install an app and create some internet accounts just to set some settings/IPs locally. So this one was easy to get into the web interface by Ethernet or wireless to set everything up. I'm shocked at how responsive the interface is. I've had very steady and strong wifi coverage. I have a couple devices plugged in via Ethernet and have had no issues. Easy to pull firmware updates. I've done some MAC filtering and DHCP reservations, and while not quite as intuitive as I've seen in the past it was also fairly simple. It doesn't matter to me but this is slightly smaller than my last router, but design wise it still has the standard external antennas that is not as decorative as some of the new ones, but again that wasn't important to me.

Title: Consistent Firmware updates and support makes this a powerful and stable device
Review: I bought this device to pair with my current ASUS AC68U router using the Ai-Mesh system. Setup was easy, however, I did have a lot of problems in the beginning with constant dropping of signals and dropping of the Ai-Mesh on the hold. After factory resetting the both routers and starting over I was able to successfully setup the system and have a strong, stable WiFi Mesh System. I am using the AX-3000 Router as the main and the AC68U as the secondary. After some firmware updates, my signal is stable and very rarely requires any intervention from me. You can set the system to do an automatic reboot one different days and times so your system is always in good shape. I have no issues except sometimes the occasional hiccup when trying to do a firmware update. Signal strength and speed is excellent. I have approximately 20 devices and they all perform very well with my setup.This router also features VPN support which works very well as well. I have tried it with both NordVPN and ExpressVPN and they both worked without problems. I love the accompanying mobile APP which gives you all the necessary information and control without having to log into the router using a laptop or desktop.Parental controls are good and allows you to control your kids devices at a decent level. The router also has built in firewall and antivirus which gives a greater level of protection as data is checked at the router level before reaching your device.ASUS issues firmware updates regularly fixing bugs and security vulnerabilities ensuring your network is safe and stable. You may find cheaper alternatives to these routers however, you may not get these ongoing updates. This is what makes these devices a great investment as they get better over time.

Title: FREAKING AWESOME !!!
Review: This thing if freaking AWESOME !!More than adequate for my needs, and I think there is some actual alien technology at work herein !!!I have Xfinity Broadband @ 400, actual getting about 505 down at this Router, setup was flawless, must reboot Router several times for some of the settings I chose, not a problem with it's 4-core processor - reboots are fast. EXTREMELY versatile and configurable with MANY attributes that were not available on other Routers I examined. As far as it's power and capability it rivals the "Sonicwall 350" we have at work BUT provides FULL BANDWIDTH and THROUGHPUT to each port even with all the Security features active... the Sonicwall 350 only allows about 350Mb throughput but with this Router I am getting in excess of 1200Mb connection rates to my laptop and Speedtests show nearly the same in Browser as the Routers built-in Speedtest !!!EVERYONES biggest complaint about their routers and connection is they "don't get download speeds in there browser that they are paying for", but most people don't understand "overhead" in bandwidth issues and don't buy an appropriate speed router to be able to provide said speed. For me and my scenario - THIS Router is the MONSTER and beats several others I have tried that all said they could do something but ended up NOT being able...I must add that I tried a "Refurbished" version of this Router and it was madness trying to get it setup and it caused many problems with my Servers and remote connections... the vendor, Azusa-IoT, was gracious and very communicative regarding return and refund, their Customer Service efforts were fast and refund happened within an hour of them receiving the Refurb unit at their location.So there is DEFINITELY something wrong with that REFURB unit. The difference in cost was only about $40. The difference in frustration level and blood pressure increase was PRICELESS !!!
