Ax88u pro longevity?

[barkmarkin]

Hey guys I'm running an ax88u pro since it was released but I'm wondering if I should have got a wifi 6e or 7 router instead I always seem to buy routers at end of their wifi standard so it's more matured, i have a ftth fiber 1000mbps connection and don't see raising speeds anytime soon, but i live In a 2 bedroom apartment and I was wondering if the new wifi standards offer more range?

No, you're good. RT-AX88U Pro will be supported for years and 6GHz band doesn't offer better range.

Well, I am wondering if this or gt ax6000 is arguably the best router. I will probably switch to BE88U Pro once that releases. But until then I think this is arguably the best wifi 6 router that can be wall mounted, My question is, Does BE88U have better range than ax88u pro in 5ghz?

It's an older model, the Gaming version of the same hardware as yours.

User noticeable or measurable difference in usable range is highly unlikely.
