## Description

RT-BE88U

Review: Superb Performing Router - Very capable router. I have been using this router with both ethernet connections and over wifi and the speed is incredible. We can get our full speed over 1Gbps on wifi as well as over ethernet. The router is easy to setup through the Asus app and has a suite with many features that can be handy to an average user or more professional. It is although quite a big router and takes up a fair amount of space.
Review: Great updated from previous Asus routers - The latest in a family of Asus xx8x routers we have had as our main home router. While having WiFi 7 is nice (for the future) the latest versions of asuswrt (especially with Merlin's magic sauce) and the phenomenal built in switch, mad this a must buy for us.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ RT-AC88U -> RT-BE88U
*by M***. on 20 March 2025*

The perfect upgrade if you are thinking of upgrading from an ageing, but solid router that is the RT-AC88U. The faster internals and ports have increased any wired network throughput tenfold and is truly futureproof with the 10G WAN.
