ASUS ROG Rapture GT-BE98 current experience

[BailA]

Hi, I wanted to know from those who own the ASUS ROG Rapture GT-BE98 European version how it is doing with the latest official firmware. Has the wireless side improved?

I can't answer your question because I've only used it with the current firmware, and I'm using it as an AiMesh node not router.
But I do have a couple of observations that might be useful.

One thing I can say is setting up the main router is very fussy, I had trouble with client disconnects when setting WiFi 7 and MLO but eventually what should have been an equivalent setup is working ok, including the GT-BE98 (as far as I can tell so far).

Also, I initially wanted the GT-BE98 as the main router but couldn't get more than one BQ16 to pair as a node, I put that down to older firmware on the BQ16 (last was an August release). I may try this again but my son likes having the big honkin' facehugger as "his" router so I might not get a chance.

Oh and btw, this is the Australian version which I believe is the same as the European version, it's certainly not the Pro version.
