    Doesn't look like 6 GHz offers anything but WPA3. Mine has been set to the default WPA3 personal since I got it. I have not had a single issue with 6E disconnects since I got mine 2 months ago. I did a dirty flash to merlin's alpha and dirty upgraded since then to the current release and no...

    I have now done 2 Newegg RMAs in the last couple months without so much as a hitch or a fee. No return shipping fee or anything.

    Ah yeah. I switched to the other 5GHz band and it is linking at 2400 Mbit/s. Must be something going on with the channels on the upper 5ghz bands here.

    I am seeing it max out at 1200Mbit/s link speed on 5GHz. only 2400 on 6 GHz so far.

    It would also seem to imply the answer to a question I've had for a while, if the 2.5G WAN port can be reused if a 10GbE port is used for WAN. Awesome.

    The photo is with all the plastic still on, but the top shiny piece is still a mirror finish with optional LEDs. I always had problems with my GT-AC5300 until one of the wireless radios finally completely failed, so I can sympathize.

    My RT-AC5300 next to the GT-AXE16000. The RT-AC5300 and GT-AC5300 share identical bodies with different coloring.

    My S22 Ultra maxes out around 950-980Mbit/s on 6E in close range despite having >Gbit internet.

    There's a recovery tool on the downloads page you can try, they say it's more like a factory reset than any of the other methods.

    Samsung S22 Ultra, which definitely has wifi 6E. Also a 2022 Zephyrus G14. When I swapped the wifi cars to an AX210 the 6E network was shown in the network list without issue but on the factory mediatek adapter it didn't show.

    I have noticed on both my phone and laptop the 6E network is not always appearing in the list of networks available. On both I have been able to enter the SSID manually and connect, and from there it has been working without issue. Maybe worth a try, assuming you haven't tried to force the...

    That's unfortunate. I have Xfinity rated at 1200/35 so I can't test the router for any higher upload speeds. Maybe someone else here has symmetrical fiber besides you two? I keep checking every day for a new firmware.

    GT-AXE16000 Owner's Thread

    Are either of you seeing proper speeds from a wired PC? Is it just the router speedtest itself having poor speeds or every device on your network? Although both my wired PC with a multigig connection and my router are seeing proper speeds as pictured.

    Yeah, when the WAN aggregation is working I am getting 1400Mbit/s+ on my 1200mbit tier. I just don't know why the wan aggregation fell over. Maybe just immature firmware bugs on the AXE16000.

    I am using an older SB8200 cable modem that has 2x 1Gbit/s ports, and supports link aggregation to achieve >1Gbit/s speeds. It's a configuration that is not officially supported by Xfinity, but they pushed the firmware update to unlock it as a "YMMV, but here you go" gesture when they upgraded...

    GT-AXE16000 Owner's Thread

    I had a pretty questionable first setup experience as well. First the router refused to connect to WAN (cable modem). Then after I updated the firmware and restarted the modem it connected but I had no internet. Took quite a bit of messing around to get it to finally work. Now that it's...

    The only 3 places listing it are the Asus webstore, Newegg, and BH Photo Video. Asus stocked a limited amount on Tuesday that sold out. Newegg received their initial allocation and sold out. BH photo video is still awaiting their initial allocation. You can backorder it from Newegg with a...

    I recently ordered a kit of ram that didn't play nicely with my motherboard. Despite not being defective and being opened and used, Newegg sent me a prepaid return label and refunded me in full. No questions asked, no hassle. I simply wrote exactly what happened in the reason for return box and...
