Product Information

This feature includes a free-for-life real-time online Network Protection protection powered by Trend Micro and a decent Parental Control engine. It’s definitely an excellent and useful feature. Looking for a mesh system? Get your home wired with network cables, get a couple of units, and you’re all set. Gigabit-class network storage performance Like other routers, the RT-AX68U comes with a Traffic Analyser feature, which includes traffic monitoring and statistical tools for those wanting to keep tabs on what’s been going on in their network.

The RT-AX68U’s QoS feature also includes a handy Internet Speed test if you want to find out how fast your broadband is. Asus RTAX68U now includes an Internet speed test tool. Traffic Analyzer and A ton of USB-related features Clients which connect to the guest network can be viewed in the network map -->view list --> interface A quality of service engine that allows you to prioritize Internet traffic to support different applications and services — video conferencing, gaming, and so on. What does all this mean? The older router is a good deal if you have only 802.11n clients, especially if you plan to connect to them at 5GHz.

Those people who work-from-home & learn-from-home will greatly benefit from this new feature with optimized streaming experiences. Fixed null pointer dereference vulnerabilities.

Also, note that since routers are different in specs, you can’t always port all settings from one to another. Among other things, the Asus RT-AX68U features WAN Link Aggregation. A robust full web interface with an excellent optional mobile app

I tested it with the latest WD My Passport SSD, and via a Gigabit wired connection, it registered 107MB/s for writing, and 112MB/s for reading, or about as fast as Gigabit can be in real life. The RT-AC68U also features dual USB ports for file, printers and 3G/4G modems sharing and a USB 3.0 port for up to ten times faster data transfers than USB 2.0. The Parent Control is a bit underwhelming, but it gets the job done. And it can schedule Internet access for multiple devices. The Asus RT-AX68U’s QoS Settings. Adaptive QoSIn short, while not super impressive in Wi-Fi specs, the Asus RT-AX68U is very promising, both as a single router or as a member of a Wi-Fi system. Asus RT-AX68U’s detail photos The Asus RT-AX68U and its retail box. Range was also the best among routers theoretically capable of 1,740Mbps and higher that I have tested. The RT-AC68U actually delivered better throughput as the range increased, going up by 5 percent as the distance increased from 5 to 30 feet. The RT-AC66U's throughput had dropped by 3 percent by that distance. Netgear's Nighthawk X6 AC3200 Tri-Band WiFi Router (R8000), a premium 802.11ac router in the same league as the RT-68U, increased its throughput by 2 percent at 30 feet. Without the support for the 160MHz channel width and a Multi-Gig port, the RT-AX68 doesn’t have everything it takes to deliver top Wi-Fi performance, according to the way I test routers. And that was the case in my testing. My 2×2 Wi-Fi 6 generally connected at 1.2Gbps of negotiated speed and registered the sustained real-world throughputs of between 770Mbps and 870Mbps from up to 40 feet (12 m) away. That’s about as fast as a Gigabit connection can give you. The router also has a standard number of network ports — one Gigabit WAN and four Gigabit LANs. There’s no Multi-Gig port, but you can combine two LAN ports into a 2Gbps bonded connection. It also supports Dual-WAN and WAN Link Aggregation.

Router-to-Router sync also makes it simple to sync files on USB-connected storage with other compatible ASUS routers for hassle-free sharing of large files with family and friends. That said, if you’re upgrading your network from a Wi-Fi 5 router, this new Wi-Fi 6 machine will be a time saver. On top of that, it has the core features and settings available in most Asus routers, including: Universal setting restoration That same argument cannot be made, however, with clients that support 802.11ac. The RT-AC68U is the top-performing router in my 802.11ac-mode tests in both speed and performance. It turned in an amazing 290.5Mbps, whereas its predecessor only averaged 129Mbps. The second faster router in this mode is the Trendnet AC1750 Dual Band Wireless Router (TEW-812DRU)which averaged283.5Mbps.The RT-AX68U also did well in network-attached storage (NAS) performance for a router without a Multi-Gig port. The RT-AC68U uses a Broadcom wireless controller and features that company's TurboQAM technology. As a result, the router supports up to 600Mbps at 2.4GHz and up to 1,300Mbps on the 5GHz band.
