Pros

High powered desktop for streaming and gaming. Works flawlessly and considering i remotely connect to a linux user interface it is super fast and responsive.

Great ping control and security. Almost everything about the user interface is great. Ios app is terrific for remote management.

The download throughput is great as is the upload speed. Recording to nas same time as streaming no issue. It occasionally lags for my son's xbox one.

Competitiveness


This all comes at a price of course but so far well worth it after trying to use other less expensive wireless routers of several makers.


I have always liked asus routers and i especially like the admin interface,and although it's gamified on this router it's even better.


Glad i spent the extra $ to buy a better router and not deal with the frustration from my old one.
